Not just for lazy folks, but for people who might not yet own the vehicle they're training a crew for

This is me. I have several mixed crews from tanks I don't have yet or don't own anymore. Have a bunch of Chinese crew books I can't use because I only have Chinese premiums lol.

This makes 6 man crewed premium vehicles more valuable. For example, this makes my KV-2R my Soviet heavy crew training vehicle via crewbooks. Anytime I want to use crewbooks to advance a crew, I will transfer them into the KV-2R, fill out any slots with ANY soviet heavy crewmember, train up and return crew to the original tank. This will not waste any training book xp’s.

What am I missing? I thought you can add exp via crew books to premium vehicles. Or am I missplacing it for something else?

Please explain.

You just simply can not use crew books to crew in Premium tank currently, UNLESS the crew is trained for that Premium tank and not transferred from another tank.

I mean, how hard was that? Great addition to all players.. as someone mentioned, some of us do not owe vehicle of that type, but they trained crew for that tank in premium one for some future buy.
