If I remember correctly you get the statistics listing IF the storming attacker loses... was this the case? Dunno about the auto-storming part.

Were there berserker commanders on either side? Berserker commanders sometimes do strange things. For example, in the unit view map, any unit with berserk automatically has its combat orders set, by default, to "Attack". Maybe the strategic orders get screwy too?

Alternately, did either of you have a random event in that province?

Actually, you don't get the report in that case. I remember several instances of trying and failing to storm a fortress and getting only a "We did not manage to capture the fortress" message.

No berserking commanders that I can recall, Soapy only had mindless units and all of his commanders wre non-berserkers with the same item loadout (no berserk items either) and I only had mages, mindless units and non-berserkers and my non-berserk god.

I didn't get any random events, don't know about Soapy. Remember, this is not a single instance, it has happened more than once, so the phenomenon can be duplicated.

The defender does get the statistics, the attacker doesn't. In a succesfull storming no one gets the statistics. (IIRC)
