Re: MBTs - 3-man or 2-man - Discuss!


Let's put it this way, two 3 crew tanks with 1.5 AV + 1.5 AA + armour of three, is also the same average firepower and endurance of three AA and three AV single player tanks, but would be a really heavy tanktype in comparison. Yet each gun on its own worthwile without being really OP as it would be outgunned in AV or AA damage by three tanks of similar weapon type. So it's a choice to take an average firepower tank into battle to get both benefits, but not to the same extend as three dedicated platforms.

If you add circling and turret rotation into that equation, the lighter tanks can quite easily win when played in a wolfpack against such a tank.

You can also simply up the damage and only have one type of weapon on it. For instance, if you just make it a dedicated platform (doesn't HAVE to be a cross platform) and double AA, AI, or AV output and double the armour, then you also got a good choice to make between a single man tank and a two crew tank.

Just some examples.
