MC: Tanks using Snorkels

RE: MC: Tanks using Snorkels
Snorkeling is mainly for shallow water crossing where the water comes up to the top of the hull, just high enough to kill the engine but not deep enough to be considered crossing a primary river.

That said, deep water crossing is *theoretically possible*, but the tank(s) require careful and extensive preparation and you would likely lose half of your tanks in the process due to leaks taking in water or getting stuck on the bottom, or you would lose a significant amount before the operation was called off. As a matter of fact, any tank crew member will generally resist any thought of deep water crossing because it will most likely result in them drowning or getting stuck on the bottom. So in all fairness, deep water snorkel operations with tanks is something that would probably never happen in the real world, and if it were possible in the game then there would have to be a mechanic to randomly lose up to 50-60% of your tanks and it would have to have several turns to prepare the tanks for crossing and generally recon the ingress and egress of the crossing site and determine the depth of the river. In other words, I don't think it should be possible.
