I have 170 crews.  With 3 tanks per crew, I have enough crew for 410 tanks.   Looking at the soviets, I have 32 crew, and there are 62 soviet tech tree tanks.  Even if I wanted every soviet tech tree tank (I don’t), I would still have 11 unused crew.   11 crew with at least 2 skills which will never be used.  How much time, effort,gold, silver, exp and crew books have now been wasted as a result of Crew 2.0?  And why are they now wasted?  Because WG have decided to implement a change forcing me to lose that investment.   All I want is for my investment to be refunded, maybe via free exp, crew books or by adding their skill to another crew.

For example Cromwell B, Thunderbolt and many others. WG even actually is highlighting such a crew to be a great plus in the actual offered Thunderbolt package.
  Quite frankly very often such a crew was the main and decisive reason for me to buy the tank in the first place. I paid for them with real cash. Those aren’t converted to instructors as I understand. So my question is: What’s your plan for reimbursement, WG?   Also as mentioned by others already I really feel f***ed as I have well trained crews basically for every Tech Tree tank while in the future I could put just the best crew in multiple tanks. So more of 50% of the crews are redundant. It should be possible to convert the accumulated experience of such crews in crew books. Or any other smart solution. I’m not completely against the change but if this isn’t done correctly and fair then this could be the reason for me to say finally good bye to the game.

When it causes only upheaval to those who don't want the change and enjoy the game as it is, we just have to suck it up?    I did suck up Equip2, and now after all that I get another load of change that I don't want, but will have to deal with, or basically leave the game, a great choice for me eh?

Plus the premium/reward tanks i have from that nation,with no limit in tier or class.   Example germany leo,grill and rhm plus e25/skorpion G for this i need 1 crew,but you say no you must pay for that and take ages to config the crew for other tanks.   We need to make use of the crew as for one nation with no limits for class,tier,or  premium or reward etc!   And it is 750 gold to train it for an other tank.   The instructors you cant reset the certification,if you select a bad certification for them you cant change it after I select the instructor but i did not like the certification for operations and i wanted to change to gunnery but i cant do this.   Plus the 75 limit for points way this nr? Some skills i need to lvl 10 but i cant get the Talent skill if i dont invest in that line 30 points,i say it is trash! Make it to 100 points so we can have more skills and more fun it the game.   Plus the conversion for  skills and crew books is not in our favor,i fell that i lose in this change of the crew!   And way i lose crew members? I have crew members from the last waffentrager event ,and now i have them as a crew skin! Serious a 3 skills crew member,and the crew  is not a new crew or an instructor? You make them just skins for the crew!
