Loss penalty relates to the difference between the AP value in units at the start of the scenario and now.

If your loss penalty is zero despite heavy losses, then some units must have started significantly understrength and are now filled up.

Be patient. You've got to do more killing and burn up the stockpiled replacements first.

Even if there's a stockpile of equipment, there should still be a lag in the replacements getting to units, meaning that they are understrength. If his loss penalty is zero- not just low, actually zero- then there has to be another explanation.

He's describing a lag:

"i can see the loss penalty but when i start the new turn they are 0-0 again.. "

Fair enough- but even with good replacement rates your units should still take several turns to recover from losses with the usual settings. Either a) your scenario has very high replacement priorities for most or all units or b) there's something else acting here.
