Rich
Having just fought a quest battle, I was a little disappointed in the
`you face 3 Cyclops, you win' format, perhaps just being used to a more
detailed description in other game formats.

Just a suggestion for future implementation - perhaps if there
were a flag for 'detailed combat' which would include a who-hit-who battle
description. i.e.

Pikeman misses Cyclops
Cyclops hits Soldier
Soldier dies
Archer hits Cyclops [96430]
Cyclops [96430] is wounded
Cyclops misses Burmeister [3490]
...

Cons: Longer game reports, eliminatable with the flag
Pros: More interesting combat
Observation of combat mechanics possible

What do you think, Rich?
