TMO Crew Size Question

[Singed]

I've been playing RFB for a while now and really enjoy it but overwhelming curiosity got me to create a separate installation and try out TMO, which I now really like as well. I honestly cannot say I like one better than the other, it is just a matter of RFB has X,Y and Z that I prefer but TMO does A,B and C more to my tastes. Kind of an awesome situation to be in really.

I noticed that in TMO the crew sizes are much larger, all crew slots and Hogans Alley are full. I just the opportunity to pick and chose the crew that I wanted and emptied out hogans alley so i could put deck crew there when I wanted to keep them safe for various reasons.

In TMO are the extra members necessary or is there any other compelling reason not to do this?

Don't fill up Hogan's Alley with crew. Save that for when you are under depth charge attack, and put the watchcrew there so they don't get injured. A flaw from the original game.

If I am not mistaken in TMO you only have to move the Gun Crews and not the Watch Crew to Hogan's Alley.
