Anthony P. Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 If a Churchill AVRE is attached as a single vehicle, it will have a unified 6 man crew instead of the 3 man crew + the 3 man sapper/dismount team it's supposed to have, or with just a 3 man crew and no sapper/dismounts. This bug manifests itself differently depending on the level at which the tank is attached. At lower levels (e.g. platoon level), it will be a 3 man crew tank with 3 empty slots for a sapper team which is missing. If attached higher up (e.g. squadron level), it'll be a unified 6 man crew. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin2k Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 AFAIK single vehicle purchases are always a single unit with a single icon. Making it a set of two units would go against how the 'single vehicle' system was prepared. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanir Ausf B Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) That's correct. The sapper team is technically a separate unit so if you want them you have to buy the formation or add them separately through the Specialist Teams menu.

I can see how it would be complicated to get working in regards to the 3 crew + 3 sapper dismounts arrangement, but that still leaves the issue of the overcrewed AVRE tanks which come with a 6 man crew, leaving no room for the sapper dismounts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I noticed that too. Would maybe be better to have a default crew of three? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanir Ausf B Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 An AVRE with a 3-man crew is a one shot weapon because there is no one to reload the petard mortar. The 6-man unified crew was a deliberate choice to ensure a fully-functional vehicle without having to buy a separate unit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case I guess it's the other way around, the AVRE at lower unit levels is bugged since it indeed comes with only a 3 man crew and nothing more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That probably would be a bug, but I can't reproduce it. Every time I add an AVRE to a section/platoon it has 6 men. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony P. Posted January 27 Author Share Posted January 27 I had another go and got the issue to manifest itself, then I exited the editor, jumped back in and it wouldn't show again. I'll get back to this if I can get it to manifest itself again, but right now it won't (which I guess is good news). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
