Good question about the effectiveness. You would think a drop in effectiveness would affect them similar to how it affects vehicles. However the skis are different in that they are carried like a weapon, so my guess is that the effectiveness only affects them in terms of their offensive capabilities, which are effectively nil ... unless you are James Bond.
I do know that if their effectiveness drops to 50% they automatically convert from skis into a snowboard.
At 75% skis have binding that 'sort of' fit the new owners boot size.
At 50% one skis have broken or missing bindings. A check is make for "Duck Tape" before they can be used.
At 25% the new owner only has one ski made with taped together from pieces of other skis. AKA the first snowboards as Rabbit suggests.
Now if I can only get my troops to quit dropping all their weapons and gear in other scenarios when they jump off the vehicle they are riding. I think there is a trick to what one should highlight when giving the unload command for a foot unit to get off a vehicle. Do these guys take off their boots while riding?
