At least it would help in having all these NOE and low level bombing raids make some sense.  I am all for the parafrags.

Actually, the same NOE tactics would not work as well with parafrags. They were useless against anything with armour, so only structures would be viable targets. But then a new problem arises: You would need to drop your entire load of frags (assuming you can carry a ton and a half of these things in a B-25) on a single hangar to drop it. That's ALOT of frags. Even with minimum delay, you would need to be a near stalling to get them all on the same target.

Parafrags were made for distributing damage over a large area of soft targets.

Airfield strat? Nope.
CV's? Nope. (you'd die before you pulled the trigger!)
Towns? Yup.
Factory strat? Hell yeah! :aok

hehehe there is a cadence that goes well with napalm, goes a little like this...

A10, A10 flyin high
drop some napalm from the sky
see those kids down by the river
drop some napalm, watch em quiver
NAPALM! sticks to kids
NAPALM! sticks to kids

it kinda goes on like that in a horrible manner. got a few chuckles from the DEPers on the last run i went on.

If napalm is added, then HTC will have to model it so troops dont disappear as soon as they are hit, but catch fire and disappear after a moment of being lit torches
