			From a movement perspective, it could be hazardous for a large unit if another large unit falls on top of it. E.g. in the off-chance scenario a reaper or sectopod falls on top of your tank during a Terror Ship assault [[User:MagicJuggler\|MagicJuggler]] 08:50, 31 July 2008 (PDT)

I have a question regarding collision detection. Can a walking soldier move off a ledge where there is a soldier or hwp beneath it? If yes, then what happens?
a) Do they occupy the same space?
b) The soldier lands on top of the unit?
c) Something else?

The idea is to use a hovertank as a platform to transport troops to the top of a ufo. Anyone tested this before?
