I wouldn't like us to have mandatory training sessions or qualifications like some other groups have but some occasional optional training/practice sessions might be good so that we can learn how to properly operate stuff without wasting time on co-op nights. The videos are good and some stuff can be practised alone in the editor but it's probably more effective if it's done with other people who can help and maybe for some stuff, like artillery, we might need someone who can watch the target and advise when shots are on target, so that people can learn how to adjust their shots, etc.
I don't think we should give up on mechanized missions, we just need some more practice to get the hang of them.
With the getting in the wrong vehicle problem, perhaps what we should do is once the leader has assigned each team a vehicle, first only the team leaders get in their vehicles and only then do the rest of the team mount up, when they can clearly see which vehicle their leader is in. Maybe even have the leaders move the vehicles a bit if they start too close together so that the name tags aren't easy to separate, even if the leader isn't going to drive after that.
