Subject: Some vehicles converted to cargo units by a different formula (Transport Capacities)
Using most of Jeff's assumptions, but not liking his light tanks and heavy jeeps, I played with a spreadsheet and some formulas to cobble up some other figures for vehicle capacity consumption. If anyone wants the spreadsheet, email me, but the formulas are on the URL I'm providing. They aren't entirely pretty, nor entirely ugly. I believe I've demonstrated they produce a vehicle capacity model that represents the 10-12 vehicles I used to "baseline" my guestimates. Anyway, have a look and let me know what you think. It's a *wee* bit more math, and it isn't all round numbers (that is, I don't handle fractional parts but you get numbers like 6, 13, 208, etc.). I believe this set of formulas produces a decent model for vehicle capacities. <Some among you will think me demented.... no check that.... I'm sure you all do by now...>
