Are 10 crew lineups worth it?

At the moment i have 8 crews, as follows:
Grb - light/med/med/spg/aa/plane/plane/plane
Arb - 1-4 empty/bomber/6-8 planes
Coastal - 1-4 boats/bomber
Blue - 1-4 ships/bomber.
Now logic say its a compact, allrouder lineup, aimed to play everything the game has to offer ( exept helis), and i know planes migh be too much, but as playing all planes in a tech tree, 3 slots might not be enough.
But a little voice keep telling i should have 10 crews, 6 tanks/4 planes ( i dont wanna mix crew specialisation) and 5 boats/ships.
Is stretching more the lineups worth it? How often do you guys use your entire lineup, or some vehicles are just to collect dust?

Air. Doesn’t matter, single vehicle spawm only means that a lineup is just about leveling crew, not performance in a match. ASB does differ from that a bit, but more than 3 or 4 isn’t needed.

Naval, you only have 3 naval spawns. So I usually have 3 primary spawns, a situational, like something good at AA, a destroyer for Torps, a coastal, then 1-2 aircraft . So 8 is plenty

My 6.0 Bluewater

Might swap Tiger for London though as Tiger is kinda terrible currently

Ground you could make use of far more, but I rarely get through 6 or 7 vehicles. But you could easily be better than me and need more slots

Ask yourself if you will ever have enough SP to spawn 4 aircrafts/helis in single GRB game.

Sure, having two planes/helis to choose from is more than fine, just pick whats the best for current situation, but depending on BR, multiroles exist.

options… having a full lineup of CAS plane heli spaa and all tank types so I can choose the one correct for the situation

still waiting.

rage bait.

im not the one slandering an the following other users to other threads.

you had 0 reason to go into the f14D aim120 topic and stat shark whine about me to knowing ARH top tier your just a low tier lazy rage baiter

I bring that many less because I will spawn that many, but because they have different strengths, so which is better can change depending on weather and/or map.

So bringing more just gives flexibility

something like the Abrams can snipe and be in the city because of fire power armor and reverse speeds so really sometimes all that’s needed is a good all rounder like Abrams and spaa + CAS on the side is what’s nessary having A light tanks on the side is extra options for very specific issues

Basically never

1 or 2 plane/2 or 3 tonk+1 SPAA is more than enough for most GRB games, 10 is excessive and most of the time you either won’t have competitive vehicles to fill slots, the game is decided before the 3rd spawn or even earn that amount of SP without nuking the lobby first

I usually like to have 2-3 MBTs, because it gives a backup when I die, 1-2 light tank/scout options, 1-2 SPAA, then the CAS and a CAP.


My main line-ups at the moment, I would add the Buc S2B and G-Lynx to the 10.7 lineup as well, but not spending GE on more slots at the moment. Probably swap the CRV for the Buc S2B once I finish spading it.

neat I do think certain tanks can do everything a light tank does maybe better sometimes like rushing the cap points and flanking

Perhaps, but for me, something like Ajax can also deal with drones, heli and some fixed wing CAS, whilst also scouting and dealing with some vehicles. CR1 cant do that. So its almost like a Hybrid AFV/SPAA, a really solid support vehicle (God I want the Warrior VERDI 2 so much)

the last line of American light tanks is a must I have to eventually grind it even tho I can get it with APFSDS HSTV - L and RDF/LT

For ground in my main nation I do have 10 slots, two air and 8 ground. I have used it a couple times but generally speaking it’s not worth having more than 7 slots at all

Will see how it works, at the moment i dont think that is a solution for my question.

For ground not top tier

I play every nation and only have 5 slots for all of them. It is usually good enough for me personally. 3 tanks, 1 SPAA, 1 plane/another tank.
I only ever need 1 plane max because I prioritize planes that can multirole, and you can CAP with pretty much everything as long as you actually play like CAP should (keeping altitude and staying aware of air targets. Most CAS will just dive towards the battle and throw away energy).
And for tanks, I just use whatever is the highest br, obviously prioritizing what I enjoy (the forbidden triple casemate German 4.3).

TLDR: 8 is more than enough

yeah I agree, I have 8 slots for my Germany lineup and I rarely get to use them all, just for the fact that I sucked alot that match or its already ending because a team crumpled. VERY RARELY do I use more than 6 vehicles in 1 GRB match, for ASB I feel its kinda dependent on how many planes are in X bracket that you want to play, and do you really want to use all those planes, as for Naval I have no clue I don’t play
