Would anyone know the attribute for commanders that can transport other troops, either underwater or granting fly? Also is there a masterlist of all the attributes anywhere? I've tried searching the forums but I don't think I'm searching the right terms.

The way to do it is to use #copystats on a unit that has the trait you are looking for and then writing over all of his stats so that the #copystatted monster becomes the dude you are rying to make.
Here is the list of monsters with UW transport in vanilla. You should try to pick a unit that has as few tags as possible, because you can't get rid of, say, Dagons "Trample" attribute. Son of the Dragon King is a prime target, as is the "Son of the Sea" pretender -> Although if you use the Son of the Sea remember to disable his "pretenderness" by makig a #restricted god for the independents (basically disabling the copy as a preender.)

For example a commander with water-transport function can be created by giving to a commander a water-transporting item.
All the tag you can give to a commander are either in the manual or in the modder wishlist, also the modding tips and tricks thread is a good read on this topic

You can't give magic items to commanders with modding tools (except for weapons and armor).
