Description
This mod adds in Gyrotransports for the Dwarfs.

Description
Gyrotransports can pick-up and drop-off any unit in your army. Fly over the unit you want to pick-up, and activate the Load Unit ability. Then you activate the "Drop Unit" ability which will drop the unit off. Note that the ability is designed such that it won't pick-up monstrous infantry (aka Ogres), artillery, or warmachines. As for the Gyrotransport itself, its ranged attack is somewhat weak, but has a "Covering Fire" debuff, that lowers enemy melee attack and ranged accuracy.

I should mention that there's no way in hell that the AI will use the load/drop unit ability.

I've also included a new skill for the Dwarf's Engineer, which enables an army ability that summons gyrotroopers anywhere on the battlefield. They even paradrop in with some Da Vinci-inspired parachutes!

Credit and Attribution
Very minor modelling, texturing, and animation work done by ChaosRobie. The pick-up/drop-off ability was pioneered and created by prop_joe. Thanks!

Special thanks to Urgat for giving me the "gyro-chinook" idea.

Gyrocopters are Games Workshop IPs and are described in Warhammer Armies: Dwarfs 8th Edition.

weird its not working properly for some reason, does this work on campaign? from what ive notice when the gyrotransport load, it just lands but doesnt pick the unit, i tried it on custom battles but the results was so-so, in some maps the loading and unloading works, while on other maps it does not, it just lands and hover a bit on top of the unit but nvr loads them in.

Love your mods, especially the air unit mods! Glad to see it won't just be a select few factions rocking that niche on the battlefield. Thanks a bunch!

I hope this is ported to Immortal Empires. It's a genius mod.

@ChaosRobie Both. The reinforcing transport can't pick up original troops or reinforcing troops.
