Van Zant has so far never failed to make back his points for me, when his other airborne ranger buddies show up and bring whatever special weapons they have(Molotok in enemy deployment zone?) I can see him being very frustrating.
I under the impression that AD level 4: Combat Jump could land in the enemies deployment area? Description says you can ace the template anywhere on the battlefield.
Hello.
You can jump directly into the enemy deployment area. That is correct and legal if you succeed. But if you fail and scatter into the enemy deployment zone, then the figure must be relocated into your deployment area, because it has failed.
I hope this message was helpful for you.

Many thanks bostria. I’m a little confused, what is the difference between the enemy deployment area and enemy deployment zone?
They are both the same thing. No difference.
Interesting.
Mmm… What about using this skill to drop directly in the enemy deployment zone? This is really terrifying and can put your opponent on the backfoot, forcing him to deal with a threat he didn’t plan while you cross the board with your other troopers.
It happened to me tonight. Unfortunately for my Opponent My Wardriver merc was right beside his hellcat and perforated him with her boarding shotgun.
Don’t drop in close to sixth sense troops kids.
This is a very cool idea. For the more detailed interactions you could do videos in the style of the old “how to play Infinity”, that would be perfect.
The language in the English rulebook suggests that Van Zant (AD Level X) cannot bring Paratroopers with him into the enemy deployment zone, but must deploy on the edge chosen for the Paratroopers: “AD: Tactical Jump and Coordinated Orders Troopers with AD: Tactical Jump may participate in a Coordinated Order with troopers with Levels 1 or 2 of Airborne Deployment. However, in that case, the AD: Tactical Jump trooper must enter the battlefield through the same segment chosen for the rest of participants.” It could instead read something like this: “Troopers with Levels 1 or 2 of Airborne Deployment may… Read more »
Carlos is awesome. So funny at the start.
