The problem is this:
When theres a battle, I get the normal battle summary on my Messages screen, however if I watch the battle it usually tells another story altogether.

I got this too, once, in MP. Apparently the random number generator isn't quite so reproductible as it should.

Or maybe there's a difference across different OSes? Are you using the same OS (Win/Linux/MacOS/Solaris) as the machine doing the hosting? My understanding is that the battle report text is computed during the hosting, and is compatible with the in-game situation; while the replay itself is computed while playing, supposedly with the same random seed as was used for the hosting.
