Losses in terms of what?  Is this infantry platoons or divisions
(divisions obviously lose a lot lower percentage as a lot of their
manpower is not in contact)?  Losses per day, week, what?

(I have Trevor Dupuy's book on attrition, so I can probably look up
the answers, eventually)

I agree that players characteristically accept vastly higher losses
than a real commander usually would.
