I don't think so, Olham - otherwise why have the Encounters setting, if this is already dealt with by other settings?

Even with Regional air activity set to Light, with 'AI always engage' to OFF, I am still getting more encounters in the winter of 1916 than I would expect. So a lighter Encounter setting would be welcome, though I guess this would not be for everyone, and so the wish for an extra option in the workshop setting (most WOFF settings have this graduated light-normal-heavy or easy-normal-difficult choice, so I think it would just bring this setting into line with the others).
