As for tank crew killed . Just say extraordinarly tough individuals are too injured , unconsous and or pinned by dislodged controls . That search and rescue / salvage crews would get to the vehicle to pull out bodies and the occasional critically injured individual . As most IS tend to have a BD of 3 most would be dead.

Without reading all of the above, here is my opinion on the topic: use the reduced lethality rules in the AToW Companion. They allow the DM to multiply the PC's health or fatigue by (I think) up to a multiple of 4. 

True, you still have to worry about consciousness checks; however, in my play testing, it has not been a problem. I allow a PC to become conscious again if a fellow PC makes a successful med-tech skill roll.
