Well, not now they can't but they should because that would be awesome.
Also, when this tactic is used Fleas should count as boats allowing players to get Fleet Admiral award.
I know I have the best ideas. No need to remind me.

Confirming that this is a needed feature in the game. I would be willing to contribute code/brainpower.

It has been 10 minutes now and no word from devs. Why isn't this ingame already?

Also Fleas should be able to carry 200x their weight. I wanna see Fleas attaching to Warlords and carrying them up a mountain! Remove Behemoth & Bertha, saves clutter and filesize.

I can't help but notice that no Devs (Skasi doesn't count) have replied to this thread. This is clearly a feature that the community overwhelmingly wants. We can thus conclude that the Devs are being bribed by higher sources to not add great features to this game.
Devs did 9/25/11.
Never forget.

Warlord should be buildable in the space lab :)
This size isn't a normal ship anymore - it's a spaceship ^^
But, back to topic...
Fleas aren't transporters and have the highest dps/cost.
If you would give them additional abilities they would be OP.
No unit is floating+AllTerrain.

IonStorm is trolling so much. Gunships and planes are all AT + burrow + floating + move over obstacles. 0wNoR3d :)
Fleas should also consume metal and lay eggs that spawn more fleas!

Ion has such stupid ideas. Of course floating flea is better.
So I was thinking about this a bit more. What if fleas could form into a sort of hang gliding unit? If you sent like 50 of them to a really tall cliff they could form into the shape of a giant wing and jump off the cliff like a hang glider. Then they could fly over defenses and into enemy base.

And if fighters tried to shoot down the wings some of the fleas could jump off the wing and land on the fighter's back and shoot it down.

Maybe our Fleas are really 10 stories tall so wouldn't be able to use surface tension like that....

Fleas are actually ~3-5meters tall I think.

Stupid you! Fleas are 2cm in size. Go ask Licho!
Also surface tension is dependent on what's in the water. ZK can easily be expanded to add things into the water when needed.
Antelope is right, Fleas and Fighters both need more awesomeness. Fighters and Bombers need to be able to crash into one another - eg. to save a Singularity or other stuff. Fleas should be able to cling onto units and shoot them in the face/butt.

Fighters should be able to drop catched fleas on enemy bombers...
Fleas should burrow in wreckages to give you the option to destroy them completely.
