    Looks like they had a system down: loaders, exchangers, shooters

      Yep! Exact setups vary - at Jaffa, I think they worked in pairs (loader-shooter), while other configurations are attested to elsewhere - I know some later European mercenaries worked in teams of three or four - two loaders, one shooter, and sometimes a shieldbearer.
