3) Implement Half-Life DR using 72 hour news
a) Half life of 18 hours * Relative Hit Strength, minimum of 12 hours, maximum of 24 hours (see d for EXPRESS)
i) ex1. If you hit with an attacking force of 110% of a targets defence, the half-life is 19.8 hours
ii) ex2. If you fail with 90% the halflife is 16.2
b) Continuous DR formula: DR_MULTIPLIER = DR_HITS<13 ? MIN( 1, 0.1+((DR_HITS-13)^2)/135) : 0.1
i) This is a simple smoothed approximation of the existing DR schedule
c) Hits older than 72 hours are IGNORED
i) With the exception of ALL-SET COUNTRY:COUNTRY DR, which is calculated with a 168 hour halflife (1 week)
d) EXPRESS HALF LIFE IS DIFFERENT:
i) 8 hour half-life (base) for Express (min 6, max 12); 72 hour ALL-SET COUNTRY:COUNTRY DR halflife
