Turn the sitrep on, use Onkel Larry's Combat Viewer and you got all the info you need. I hate to mention it again, but it was in one of the Tutorial 'XX threads. And, there is a review battles button, too.

Here's the thread where I explained the CLV and how it works, incl. DL link.

Yes, I knew the sit rep thing. BTW I just noticed the combat screen button in the bottom right pannel. I haven't noticed it earlier. I was looking in the view menu. OK so it's possible
I just don't know what's "Onkel Larry's Combat Viewer ?

Combat Loss Viewer... the nice program where you can read out the sitrep files and have all the nice battle results shown with nice little graphics; see the link I posted earlier.

The .CSV is the sitrep you load from TOAW IV. You start the program (as seen in the screenshot), select the sitrep (which ofc is in the SAVE folder of TOAW IV) and the program will create a .htm file; this one you open and it will pop-up in the browser.

This is precisely what I'm asking about. In which directory do I find it ? What file name ?

sitrep files, both .txt and .csv are stored in \Documents\My Games\The Operational Art of War IV\Saves.

You start the program, it will give you the option to browse for whatever .CSV you got, wherever it might be.

That's it, I don't have any .txt or .csv files in my save directory ...
The only files I have are .sal

The program will ask you where you want to save the .html file. You open it and voila!

Well... perhaps it might be a good idea to switch sitrep on in the options menu? :o

Details, details. I, too, was wondering why I didn't see any files. Needed to turn that on. The differences in understanding this very complex system between you veterans and us noobs can be very frustrating at times.

I will try to dedicate a Tutorial 'XX to those little titbits...Check out the tools/documents I have bundled in the Tutorial '45 section though.
