I was playing the Guadacanal MC yesterday and one of my M3-GMC's got straffed and bombed by a Japanese DB. Took multiple hits with the MG/cannon, at least two "turret damaged" reports. The bombs landed in the same hex but didn't hit the vehicle. (Took out a number of nearby infantry men, though.) So when my turn comes, I find that the GMC has [B] 8 damage points [/B] and inoperable weapons, but it rallies back!

I don't think I've ever wracked up more than 4 damage points on a single vehicle before - didn't think you could get any higher without it being destroyed. Anyone else?

Each crew member is a damage point.
Each weapon system is a damage point.
Range Finder and Targetting are damage points (I think just 1 point apiece though; maybe 2).
Radio is a damage point.
Track/Suspension is 2-3 damage points (damaged, then immobilized, with a possible second damaged on very fast vehicles?).
Toolbox, if present, is a damage point.
And finally, the Engine can be damaged an infinite number of times.

So technically the damage can be infinite, but usually by about 4 (a crew member, a weapon system, a suspension and an engine) damage points the next one will destroy the vehicle. But again, technically... 8 on it's side.

7 engine dmg to Opel Blitz, each with BAR, from behind!!! I guess they took out every cylinder and the last bullet was for a diesel pump. LOL!

Another being a GAZ with some 6 turret damages. The driver's sidearm took a beating!!!
