A "casualty" in these games is assumed to be anything from an outright kill to a soldier cowing in a shellhole unable to function and everything in between. It represents "Non combat effective" so every man removed from an infantry unit in the game is NOT a "kill" .....that was THE FIRST thing I changed with a hex editor in 1998 when we produced SP2WW2 when a hex editor was the only way to change the EXE.
Important day in MBT history. Thanks for the fix.

As well, NO other army expends ammunition like the US Army. They are the exception not the rule.
Good point. I learned something.

At the same time the game underestimates just how bad some guerilla/insurgent type forces are. The Taliban and Northern Alliance soldiers often went into battle against each other with about five bullets in an AK magazine and nothing else.

It's a world of difference in ammunition expenditure, but perhaps if most armies are reasonably conservative with their ammo they reach ingame accuracy rates. Sorry again for my ignorance.
