Oil Tanker (WC2 Human)

As the only ships which do not require oil to be built, Oil Tankers make possible the construction of the Alliance fleet. They are manned by hard working, dependable mariners who search for the rich oil deposits which lie beneath the waves. The crew of every Tanker is skilled in building Oil Platforms and ferrying the oil back to a Shipyard or Oil Refinery where it may be processed and put to use.

• Oil Tankers are used to build Oil Platforms and haul the oil back to your Shipyard or Oil Refinery. Note that only Tankers owned by the player who builds the Platform can harvest oil from it.
• They are moderately fast and can also be used for scouting.
• They are completely unarmed and not very durable, though they can be used as makeshift offensive units if you have a Mage cast Flame Shield on them.
