"It's even more pronounced with 3 shields. There are 216 combinations.
There
are 91 shield dropping combinations out of 216 (if I've done the math
correctly) for three shields, or a 42.13% chance that NO SHIELD will be
dropped when checking three shields. You lose 2 shields in 15/216
combinations, and three shields in 1/216 combinations."

57.87% of NO SCREEN loss. It would be 42.13% chance that at least one
screen
would be dropped, 6.94% of loosing 2 screens, and 0.46% that 3 screens
would be
lost. The 42.13% chance of loosing 1 screen contains all 6.94% chance of
loosing
2 screens and the 0.46% chance of loosing 3 screens.

But still, my predictions were way off. ;-)
