An earlier question gave me an idea:

Merchants and transports cost the same. Is it possible to merge these functions and have the same class of ships for both?

It would make for interesting gameplay choices especially on allied side. If you lose these ships eventually you hinder you ability to move troops around. Also if they are killed in a botched invasion reources are harder to move.

Not at this point. Also to note troop transports and merchant marine were engineered differently. You can't use a troop ship to transport cargo and vice versa. You would have to convert one to the other.
