Awesome Rocktopus

Super duper rocktopus.

Originally the Roctopus was a terribly nerfed unit much to the disappointment of many gamers. The info didn't make it clear it was unlike any other orbital in the game able to launch in place even outside your orbital coverage or that it could perform its own anti-orbital strikes.

In Rising Tide, Firaxis had quietly buffed the unit...but nobody noticed, given the slew of new, interesting and more practical hybrid units like the Golem and Aqualon.

This mod hopes to make the Rocktopus an interesting unit again by making it faster and giving it a phasal transport ability, albeit with a nerfed orbital range. So now you can move a Rocktopus to your frontline, clear out any enemy orbitals, launch it and teleport your army into battle.
