Is this possible and preferable? :hmm:
I posed the question of using the current UnitType=105 for the icebergs , this is the translated reply...

Essentially yes. However there are a few things I need to clarify.

After re-reading this thread, I think that releasing a patch with a whole lot of slots available may be a waste of the Devs own time.
Why? Please explain.
