Default Re: Should tank crews be better armed?

Crews are simply a marker. They are not Ramboesque killer combat units.

All they exist for is to provide a mechanism in campaigns for your experienced guys to survive being blown up, or perhaps to re-crew the disabled vehicle later on to fire a few pot-shots if they feel brave enough. And if you feel like scouting with a dismount - your armoured car crew can take their chances with mortar bombs etc. by getting out of the tin can and having a look.

As for me - they would have no armament whatsoever.
And since bunkers do not exist in cores - they should not spit out crews at all. Bunker crew should remain cowering inside even if in "rout" status, since they are irrelevant. That puts a stop to any twit who comes along wanting bunker crews to be Ramboised.

Bottom line - Rambo crews will never ever be implemented.
