Does the Air Drop Loss percentage in the Parameter Data table indicate the amount of loss from an air drop or the degree from nominal the air drop loss is altered?
The modifier modifies what would normally be applied as losses, whi may jump around a fair bit.
There was no modifier when N44 (and S41 - which has a German AB varient in it) we made.
But when I was building Sicily I went to John with a rather complex idea to modifier AB losses, Gliders, vs. Para ect and with values for each side as there is German and Allied AB operations in that game. I could also forsee the need for something like this for MG44 where the day drop losses in the rear, in areas where there wasn't significant enemy troops we done virtually without losses on the drop.
John made a more simplied ver of the idea which worked fine under test.
N44 was set to 100% or Normal losses. Sicily I think we used 200% and MG44 is zero.
