I know in single player, you have the option of controlling the tank as a whole, or zooming down to the individual stations and driving or gunning yourself. I haven't tried yet, but does Multiplayer work in the same manner? Would it be possible to, say, network 6 people together, and have 3 of them controlling one tank (Gunner, driver, etc) and do a battle that way?

Unfortunatly, Multi-Crew is not possable. :) I've wanted that since I saw it in LongBow2 all so many years ago. With MP, each player controls one platoon and there are no AI platoons . The most players I've seen stable in a game is 8 with 2 AI wingman each. I've seen 12 with no wingmen. There is a small group still playing MP at http://pedg.yuku.com/ . I have not seen more then 6 players in a very long time.
