Tankery: a part of our culture with a long history, enjoyed by girls from many nations all throughout the world. A strong but delicate art that aims to make girls and women alike more polite, graceful, honest, and gallant, both on and off the battlefield. To learn tankery is to armor the heart of a maiden, the soul that embraces and burns with femininity: intense and strong like a tank's iron! Cute and lively like the clattering of its tracks! And finally, passionate and precise like its main cannon! If you train in tankery, you'll become a better wife, a better mother, a better student, and a better worker. You'll become healthier, kinder, stronger, and men from all over the world will fall at your feet! This is your chance. Train your body, train your mind, embrace tankery and blossom as a woman on the field of battle!

Rules

Each round, all played Crew members roll 1d6. Rolls of 1 are Big Mistakes, 2-5 are Success, and 6 is Genius!

Success Table

Commander - A specific tank is targeted (instead of a random enemy tank). -1 penalty for targeting
 Light Tanks, -2 for Mini Tanks. Genius!: +1 Targeting and Maneuver
Gunner - +2 Targeting  Genius!: +4 Targeting
Driver - +2 Maneuver  Genius!: +4 Maneuver
Loader - +1 Firepower Genius!: +3 Firepower
Co-driver - Either repairs one damage effect, or adds +1 Maneuver. Genius!: Boosts another crew member's Success to Genius!

Big Mistake Table

Commander - False identification!  Tank fires on a random allied tank, or, if none are available, a random already-disabled tank of the targeted enemy school.
Gunner - Firing too hot!  Tank takes 1 damage (but resolves its action if disabled)
Driver - We're stuck!  The tank gets comically stuck in mud or otherwise entangled.  -2 Manuever this round.
Loader - Hot shells!  You distract a random crew member, downgrading their success by one level (Genius to success, etc)

Resolution

At the end of each round, the GM will resolve each shot fired, and deal out the appropriate damage. Damage of 2 or higher also causes a roll on the damage table.

If the effect cannot be applied, the tank suffers an additional 2 damage. This comes into play if the tank is already suffering the debuff it rolled, or if it is an NPC tank that suffers effects 1 through 3.

Damage Table

1 - Smoke fills the hull!  Crit fails occur on 1-2 for all crew next round.
2 - A random (played) crew member is stunned by the impact!  They cannot perform their duties next round
3 - Debris, on my tank?!  -2 Spotting permanently
4 - Treads flapping around!  -1 Maneuver permanently
5 - Cannon down!  -1 Firepower as tank is reduced to using machineguns
6 - Tank flipped!  Maneuver and Spotting are impossible unless two crew members spend a full round flipping the tank (non-repairable)
7 - Treads blown off!  Tank is permanently unable to Maneuver (non-repairable)
8 - On Fire!  Tank suffers 1 damage each round (non-repairable)

Destroyed Tanks

When a tank is reduced to 0 HP, it is "destroyed," and a white flag pops out of the top to mark this. Crew of the fallen tank are allowed to shift to any remaining tanks of their faction without missing a turn.
