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.
