Then surely this wouldn't be unopposed? Gets back to the need to /
reasons for scatter....

[Tomb] Imagine I'm arriving at an outpost and want to attack with
surprise. The attack isn't opposed because the enemy on the ground is
mostly infantry without significant ADE. But if I don't get down there
fast, he'll wake up, dig in, and be a pain to root out. If I get down
fast enough, he's caught in a state of less than full readiness and I
have a good chance of taking the objective. And because dropcaps are
"the fast route" to the ground, I'd figure they'd still be a preferable
option here.
