IN the rules of BL it states that several turrets or barbettes can be
controlled by one MFD. And thus I would also find it possible to save in
on the crew count when it comes to gunners. With the FF&S rules I have
made a set of turrets and barbettes that are unmanned, but must be
controlled by a MFD. If there is interest in getting this list I'll post
it at a later date, either here or e-mail it to you. It is an "official"
HIWG document, and may be obtainable from Bryan Borich, or Clay Bush.
