When I buy a Transport, there is a number in parenthesis next to it. (4) or (3) for example. What does this mean?

I notice that the cost varies depending how much money I have. If I am flush with cash, the number tends to be (4). If not, it will be lower, but I can still buy the transport.

I assume this has something to do with capability or range. Yes? Is it a settable choice, or are just stuck with whatever the computer wants to give you? I have a hard copy of the manual but this issue does not appear to be addressed.

Thanks!

The number in parenthesis is the number of available transports you can have on the map at any one time. Amphibs have separate limits. As your Logistics tech goes up so will this number.

The cost is based on the unit being transported only (and the Logistics tech level). More expensive units cost more to transport.
