You will have the same experience with assault results where occasionally you will lose an assault you expect to win and not really know why, once again you have to put this down to a bad dice roll.

I think these blurred results are a good thing as in war there are no certainties and history is littered with examples when things do not go to plan due to some unforeseen event that could not be anticipated.

Actually, I agree with this.  I think blurred results do make games better. 

Regarding the game help files, though, I think "Help" is not presented to the user very well. I have PzB MG installed on my PC.  I have seen and read the "User Manual".  But beyond that I'm confused. The User Manual refers to a "Main Program Help File".  I can't find that anywhere.  I assume that is what the "Help" menu calls General Help, and also what is supposed to come up when clicking the question mark on the tool bar.  I get no response from any of these actions: Pressing F1, choosing General Help under the Help menu, or clicking on the question mark in the tool bar.  Nothing. No response at all. I'm trying to learn how to play these games and this is very frustrating.
