Rotating Unit-Building Models

I'm attempting to rotate some of the default buildings models but there is no "Art - ?" field for rotation on Building Units. I'd prefer not to use destructibles or doodads because I want the building to be able to create units, be destroyed, and be selected by players. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

For the record, I do not have the ability to edit models myself, and would prefer if I did not have to import a set of new models with the appropriate rotations.

Change the "Stats - Is a building" option in the object editor to false, so you can freely rotate the building. When you've placed all buildings on your map, set the option back to true. The rotations will remain, and the unit will be a building. Note that the rotation is reset every time you change the "Stats - is a building" to false.
