Is it just me or are drop probe teams unable to move after dropping? Presumably this is a design choice, as probe teams wouldn't suffer the attack penalty that penalizes other drop troops and so would be immensly powerful if they could just drop near (not next - apparently, even my armoured (thus not "non-combat") drop probes count as "non-combat" for this and so can't drop next to enemy) a city and move to subvert it. I couldn't find this feature documented. Come to think of it, I couldn't find the "non-combat can't drop in ZoC" documented, but at least I got a nice pop-up. Oh well, there goes my latest sure-fire how-do-I-get-to-Deidre-when-she's-halfway-round-Planet tactic.
