Half-track Passenger casualties

[RERomine]

IMO, a half-track should protect the passengers more than other vehicles unless someone gets something in the back of the track, i.e. grenade, artillery or mortar round, machine gun fire from a height. There, you might have rounds/shrapnel bouncing around in the track when it would have passed through the sides of a soft skinned vehicle. More casualties as a result.

Since most APCs are close topped these days, I figure the militaries of the world have decided open tops are a risk as well. Overall, I agree with Cross that casualties from tracks should be lower than that of soft skinned vehicles. I tried looking for reports on the subject, but couldn't find any. Not even sure there are any studies on the subject. I'm not worried about it from a game perspective, however. It's just something that is and I deal with it.
