Re: Turret crew and Fire Control
perhaps another factor to consider in terms of AFV stats: values in the Encyclopedia.
I'll list one tank in particular. The S-35. A formidable vehicle in terms of firepower and armor. It has a FC rating of 2, which would seem to conform loosely with a "two man" turret crew for WWII AFVs. But it has a turret with only one crewman. (gunner/commander(and loader)). That limitation poses a significant challenge for the vehicle vs. a turret with 2 men (commander and loader), which itself is at a significant disadvantage vs a turret crew of 3 where the roles are all separated (commander/loader/gunner)
I'll do some tests with FC 1 for the S-35. Might prove interesting.
