The Troop Transport module allows a unit to transport other units by land, sea, or air, depending on the unit’s chassis.

  • Only sea-going units can transport more than one unit at a time. A Foil can transport a number of units equal to twice its reactor value. A Cruiser can transport a number of units equal to four times its reactor value.
  • Transports can normally transport only ground units, but seagoing transports can be given the Carrier Deck special ability to allow them to transport and refuel air units.
  • Additionally, air transports can only load and unload passengers in a base or airbase. However, choosing the unload transport Shift+U command will allow the passengers to unload while the air transport is in flight.
  • Capacity: 500 troops + support
  • Composition: Hardened plasteel
  • Hydroponics rating: ST
  • Armor: Passive (Appliqué)
