Combat report shows +1 after assault chosen. The actual throw was not given the +1 however. I don't know how to show a picture and an attachment.

If you are playing with Fractional Odds, the program displays the "expected odds", rounding up to assume the attacker passes the fractional odds die roll (gains the benefit). Once the actual combat occurs, the fractional odds die roll may be bad for the attacker (it fails) and the actual odds are one less than the expected odds.

It is not the fractional odds. It is a +1 die modifier from the blitz bonus. It is shown as a +1 net modifier even though blitz bonus has not yet been decided . It should perhaps be shown as 0 (+1 blitz) on the net row. But what is more annoying is that it is shown as a net +1 even after assault has been selected. See picture.

However. After the actual roll is rolled the +1 (net) is removed and the die is not modified, so in the end it is only cosmetic.
