Transport Units

- Number of units loaded is always visible from "outside" to all players, You always can see how many units are transported as cargo

- Attacks on transports always affect cargo. Loaded units lose hitpoints, if transporter is damaged more than their own hitpoint number

- Transporters have low or no attack values

- at the moment air is pretty weak on water (destroyers). less because of combat values but the destroyers ability to move and shoot from distance plus its repair ability of 2/turn, while air needs to fly away for repair
carriers could strengthen overpriced bombers and widen their operational area

Freighter

- Freighers transport up to 4 units over water
- have no ZoC
- can not attack

soft: 0
hard: 0
air: 0
speedboat:0
amphibic:0
sub: 0
boat: 0
4 - 3 400
- only hovercrafts can capture bases/ structures separated by water, this would change
- units on conquered islands are useless mostly and could be further put into action by freighters

Halftrack

Halftracked armored personell carriers transport up to 4 troopers of all sorts, weak combat except against soft soft: 6
hard: 3
air: 0
speedboat:3 amphibic:6

this armored troop transport can avoid spamming whole landscapes with troopers, where you might want to position artillery or hard units but still have large numbers of infantry for your disposal. increases mobility of your whole army formation
