Assassins are unpacked siege units. Packing is "Camouflage", unpacking "Remove Camouflage". Packs into a random shrub that can't move, can't attack and cannot be attacked by the enemy somehow. Minimap displays nothing for the packed unit, but a normal player-coloured marker when unpacked into the Assassin.

Packing = "Shroud" or "Sheath", unpacking = "Switch to Melee", so this capability can be shared with the Nazgul: Ringwraiths and Black Riders can be switched from melee to ranged attack.

Also test if auto-attack can be disabled, so these units don't auto-attack buildings.

Update: Nazgul units don't use this ability anymore. However, the Mumakil now use this to switch between melee and archer tower mode. Packing: "Sheath and Shroud" Unpacking: "Switch to Melee"

Or if using only packed siege units to transform between, then Unpacking: "Switch Mode".

In both cases, the long text needs to describe the effects on Assassins and Mumakil.

Only applies to Assassins now. Packed = shrub, unpacked = assassin. Packing = "Shroud"/"Conceal"/"Cloak"/"Veil". Unpacking = "Attack"/"Reveal"/"Uncloak"/"Unveil"
