1 I feel the need for a single mass-transport instead of many single carriers too, but just because it's 20% cooler. If anyone played SupCom he'll remember how cool was to see unit land in formation, see the "massed" radar signature ( every trasported unit got a radar dot, so a transport coming was a 6x3 formation of dots very close to each other) . 1 I feel the need for a single mass-transport instead of many single carriers too, but just because it's 20% cooler.

3 But, more seriously, I think the major fact here is that if this "big transport" is big enough, it could survive light AA. I think a nice solution to this is to make the transported unit damaged also by AA, in this way some light AA emplacement will have the effect of sending the landing force to 50% HP strenght. 6 bandit will still land in your base, but when they are low HP any lotus can take care of them quickly. 3 But, more seriously, I think the major fact here is that if this "big transport" is big enough, it could survive light AA.

5 And footprints. This can not be the unique way to choose because, like it was said, of roaches. In SupCom there was a simile crawling bomb, but with so few hp that any AA was able to kill one and start a chain reaction. This should be stuided carefully, maybe a eraser-roach combo could be too powerfull, or maybe skuttles wuold be able to jump when trasport is destroyed and so on. I feel the easiest way is to forbit those units to use the ipothetic "big transport" until they have been tested a lot. 5 And footprints.
