CARRY: When moving as a result of being given an action, this character may carry one friendly character. When this ability is used, modify this character’s speed value by –2 until the end of the action. The following characters can’t be carried: Larger characters, multi-base characters, characters holding an object, and characters with any of the following combat symbols: , , , , . To be carried, the friendly character must be adjacent to this character at the beginning of this character’s action. When this character ends its movement for the action, the carried character must be placed in a square adjacent to this character. While being carried, a carried character is not adjacent to any character nor can it draw a line of fire until placed at the end of this character’s movement for the action. A character which has been carried this turn can’t be given an action (other than a free action) until the beginning of the next turn.
So Colossals can carry Giants if the Giants are not more than 1x1. The Colossals still need to have the carry ability though.
Actually, this is an interesting question and will require some clarification. It all depends on what the decription of the Carry ability means when it says "Larger characters." Does that mean larger than the regular size, or does it mean larger than the character doing the carrying? If it's the latter, then there IS no reason that a Colossal with the Carry ability (I'm looking at you, Frost Warrior!) wouldn't be able to carry a Giant. I'd like a ruling on this, personally.

"Larger" isn't a specific size. Larger just means, well, larger.
The actual sizes are Tiny, Standard, Giant, and Colossal.

See, that's what I figured. So there's nothing in the rules that says a Colossal can't carry a Giant. Which is badass if you want to do a Frost Giant team.
(Also, thanks for the clarification on the sizes. I think I knew those already, but you never know... I could have NO IDEA.)
