Let's say I have a two man fleet. Both players are using battlecruisers each with a different gang module active:
1) If player A is wing commander and player B is squad commander does the gang get bonuses?
2) If yes, does player B get the bonuses from both player A's gang mod and player B's?
3) Does player A get just his gang module's bonus or also player B's?
Basically I'm getting hung up on setting up the gang. I have two players, both with gang modules. I want to get both of them to get one bonus and one of them to get both bonuses. Is that possibe? Is it possible if I had a third player to the gang? How do I have to set it up to make it work?
Appreciate the help!

The last word from CCP (unless it has changed recently.) was that Commanders do not receive bonuses from other Commanders. Yes, it sucks and it needs to change.
Also, bonuses never flow uphill.
What you should do is put both modules on one person's ship and make him/her Squad Commander and the other a squad member, then both people will receive the bonuses.

Too bad most of the fleet command ships aren't so hot in very small gangs.

You don't need to use a command ship, you can use a battlecruiser with a Command Processor.

Good thought. Try making a useful bc for a very small gang with a command proc and 2 command modules fitted.
Command proc isn't the answer.

Excuse the noob question, but do the squad members receive both bonuses from squad and wing commander then?
I'm asking myself if it would make sense to have the wing commander run an armored warfare link for the entire gang while making a separate squad with all the interceptors and frigates and run a skirmish link for them.
Would my interceptor squad (except for the commander ofc) get both speed and armor bonus?
Edit: I'll most probably have the warfare links on BCs in a small gang and don't want to gimp their setup by command procs, so it's only 1 link per ship.

Gang warfare bonus's work on an inheritance model. Bonus's flow down the model not up. So you can inherit bonus's from anyone in the same branch above you. So everyone gets the bonus's generated from the fleet commander for instance, but if wing commander 1 has a specific bonus that wing commander 2 does not have, then only members of wing 1 would get those bonus's wing 2 would not. In your case the way to do it is put both modules on the fleet commanders ship.

In your example you woule be correct. The members of a squad can receive 3 bonuses. 1 from the squad commander, 1 from the wing commander and 1 from the fleet commander. The only time this isn't the case, is if any 2 of the commanders are trying to give the same bonuses, where whoever has the best skills give the bonus, the other is ignored. Also the squad commander will recive both their own bonus and the wing commander bonus.
