Interdiction of Land Units

[canuckgamer]

On page 75 of the manual it says that a successful interdiction of a land unit will reduce it's operation points by 33%. I ran a hot seat test, first attacking a German infantry. It showed the red down arrow but it's operation points were only reduced to 4. 33% of 5 is 1.65 so shouldn't it be at least reduced to 3? I then successfully interdicted a German panzer and it's operation points did drop from 9 to 6 as expected.
Are non oil or infantry units impacted differently than oil burning units, or is this a bug?

it should be 3 and I have seen it 3.

If it is an American or UK unit it goes to 4 since they have 6

In our PBEM game I successfully interdicted 3 German infantry and 1 panzer which is a 10 mover. All three of the German infantry lost 1 OP to 4 while the panzer was reduced to 7. My friend sent me a screenshot but the file size is 2.16 MB. It looks to me that the program when checking for the operations point loss sees that losing 2 off the infantry would be 40%, exceeding 33% so it drops it to 1. I can send you the screenshot if you want to see it.

At least we now know how it works but if your intention is 5X.33 = 1.65 rounded up to 2 then the German infantry should only have 3 operation points after being successfully interdicted. As it works now, German infantry lose 20% of their OPs when they have been interdicted.

Ya know coming to think if I might have done it on purpose. Because going from 6 to 4 isn't that bad but going 5 to 3 is really bad.

With 6 move dropped to 4 you can go through ZoC and still have 1 operation point left.
With 5 move dropped to 3 you have zero.

The difference is significant.
