Default Re: Patch Improvements

Suggestion: Battle Log.

Basically a text file (viewable in game if possible) that shows every action and roll in a battle. Ideally it would be created in real time with the battle, so at any point you could pause the battle, pull open the log and determine exactly what happened.

Obviouslly I realize the insane size this would be on larger battles, but I think this kind of feature would be incredibly valuable for learning the mechanics.

-How does multile attacks against one person lower defense. -How varied the open ended rool can be.
-Effects of fatigue on armor penitration
-Morale rools and effects on them.
-etc...

I know all those equations are available in the manual (or online somewhere), but actually seeing them applied would shed a lot of light on how they work in practice.

These would be particurarly interesting (and understandable) on Arena battles or Thug/SC battles.
