I need a Loan

Health warning: this won't even be remotely accurate as the expression in the brackets approaches 1! I will try to simplify this ASAP.

Indeed, Please! Taking your 1600 soldiers and 30000:

700 * 1600/30000 = 37,33% public order, which rounds to 35%. Good enough! What do you think CA programmers used? Order = 0 + 700*X, or 2.8 + 701*X?
(for Large).

Now people in other threads are using your guesstimate to do calculations, making them more complicated than necessary, and leading to difference of up to 8%, for no other reason than standard deviations in these trial functions(!)
