That information is recorded for every battle, but I generally only
hand it out when bugs in the combat algorithm are suspected. It
can be quite long, and is pretty boring (not having been designed
to be interesting in the blow-by-blow, like say an Arena turn is).

But if there was interest, I might be able to include it under a
separate heading in the turn report. Making it an optional flag
would probably be a good idea, as it could add thousands of lines
to your turn report if you had a few battles each turn.

The raw log looks like this (it would have to be somewhat cleaned
up for inclusion in player turn reports):
