Dropship

Overview
The slow, defenseless Terran flying transport is vital for ferrying troops to locations inaccessible by ground.

How It Has Changed
The Dropship builds and moves slightly faster than before, although either difference is difficult to notice.

Recommended Uses
Delivering units to remote locations. Dropping Siege Tanks behind enemy lines. Dropping Marines and Medics behind enemy lines.

Further Detail
A compelling new cargo for a Dropship is a combination of Marines and Goliaths, and two Medics. Use this team in support of Battlecruiser fleets. Your Medics can restore any ill effects dealt to your fleet, while the Marines and Goliaths can help deal with any nearby opponents.
