Default Re: Tank carry capacity

Most of the modern MBT's don't have any carry capacity. Except the Isreali Merkuva.

Most if not all older tanks have some. Not sure why.

Your eardrums wouldn't want to be anywhere near a main gun when it fires.

Thats my point why are Leos exempt, Merkerva can I think supposedly carry a half squad & that strange stretched T-72 Ukraine uses so they are fine. In fact due to game mechanics may carry on the outside never tried.
I can sort of see why M series allowed if as Suhiir said has grab rails but either ban once get TI or alternativly on any tank with a speed over say 16 that has TI that way the player is at least better off using APCs as they are all faster so really would only use in a pinch. Can of course have house rules but its quicker if sorted in game by an arbitery cut off rule. Alternativly give them a lower carry capacity like 4 or 6 as have to be on the rear deck & cannot carry most squads unless trying to extract them or another tank crew which seems the most likely use to me although sending in an APC while tanks cover it would be more logical, but hey its war needs must.
