Take SUN TZU's advice and send your slower units first, so they all get
there at the same time.

And I third the notion!

just as long as they keep the midevil fantasy setting, I would rather
see a teleport spell than an air transport.
How about being able to buy horses for every unit(mounted
mages,mounted peons that could haul more resources, etc) also how about
being able to buy magic carpets for any unit(flying mages, flying
archers, flying peon, etc) the magic carpet would cost a fortune but
would be a unit by itself (like the transport) but it would only hold 1
or 2 guys. also how about wagons(land transports) you could haul small
boats, or have your harvesting pesants dump there goods in the wagon and
have the wagon return the stuff to town faster(this would also help out
when resources are on another island when your low on funds and cant
aford a new townhall or the townhall won't fit on the island, the
pesants would automatcally dump their goods into the closest resource
holder(the wagon), but unlike the lumbermill, you wouldn't get to use
the resources until the wagon was returned to a building) it would bring
the convoy element into the game you would want to protect those wagons
alot because all of the stuff they would haul, and perhaps you could
haul mages or other slow units that need to get out of the battle zone
fast.
