The massive MacArthur class of Heavy Assault Transports are the largest dedicated troop-carrying ships ever built for Earth Fleet. Approaching the scale of Star Control Ships, they are not only large enough to carry the 40,000 men of two full divisions of Tech Infantry troops, but also more than enough heavy equipment to support them in Planetary Assault Pods. These ships are far from helpless in a space battle, being armed like a Dreadnought with large numbers of Lance Torpedoes backed up by Grav Lasers, Chemlasers, and Fusion Cannons. Of course they also carry multiple squadrons of fighters and are armed with heavy Mass Drivers for orbital bombardment. As long as you're not facing a Core World with a billion-plus population, one of these ships might be enough to conquer an entire planet on its own.
