Landing Ships are required to facilitate a sustained coastal invasions into enemy territory.
When undeployed, Landing Ships are susceptible to Sticky Bombs and AT Rifles.
When deployed, Landing Ships considered a structure, as such it should be attacked with anti-structure weapons rather than anti-vehicle.
Clear the area in front of the LS before deploying, the ramp can crash anyone who stand too close.
