Oh yeah, in CC they should be toast - grenades in the hatch and
whatnot. Def. only vs ranged attacks. I thought about mods for the
heavier weapons, but most of what's gonna kill a transport is going to
have a -1 or -2 mod anyways. I can easily see the volcano cannon, etc
being unsaveable against, say, anything with a -3 or better save mod,
and any "instant death" effects like vortexes (vortices? Elvii?), being
crushed by deathrollers, hit w/drop pods, SAGuns on a direct hit, etc
should wipe out the troops too.
