Ok, so let's say we take your standard HISS Tank I and wanted to create a HISS Tank "Tank Crew" for it, what do you think it would entail? has anyone done this?!
COMMANDER: Oversees the Tank's operation DRIVER: Obviously, he drives the tank from the Canopy section. GUNNER: Mans the Turret's machine guns LOADER: pulls rounds from the ammunition compartment and loads them into the main gun. So, the toy HISS Tank only has seats for 2 (1 in the canopy and 1 in the Turret gun), I'm assuming the Commander and the Loader just hang onto the back?

driver, gunner, mechanic, and a prostitute. I think that's all you need for a successful mission.

With the modern figures, I've tried to include two HISS drivers for every vehicle. One's the driver, and the other is the gunner. There's no room for anyone else.

Do you use the Red Hisstank Driver or the Blue Hisstank Driver?
*EDIT: - And who would be better for the Tank crew, blushirts or other types of Cobra Troops?!

POC H.I.S.S.:
Driver goes in the front. He controls the chin mounted anti-personnel MGs. The Driver's view does not change with the position of the turret. However, depending on the turret's position, the chin mounted MGs operation will be affected. Gunner goes in the rear. He is the Vehicle Commander and is ultimately responsible for what the vehicle and crew does and fails to do. He operates the Vehicle's larger weapon systems and when the "turret" is unlocked from the chassis he has control of traversing the "turret". No loader is necessary as the loading of the two main weapon systems is automated once initially loaded prior to SP. |

I use the red Hiss Driver as the driver and the blue one as the gunner. I've thought about getting extra red ones so that's all I have, but I don't mind the blue guys that much.
I don't think the Hiss is meant to be a main battle tank at all, so there wouldn't be any need for a reloader, since the gun is small enough to be self reloading. I think of it as more of a really well armored Jeep then as a tank. |

In my Joe-verse the Commander is rarely seen by the common blueshirts. He gives his orders through Destro and the Baroness. His business decisions are given through the Crimson Twins. Serpentor rules the Cobra Underground (Arena of Sport and it's associated rackets) and the Cobra Prison. *EDIT: - Well, Balaclava and Xenos cleared some things up for me. The HISS tank doesn't need a Loader/reloader at all. It is an automated reload! THIS is the reason I start threads like this, NOT to boggle, but to apply some real-world logic to my Joe verse!
