So a structure like:
 player (attacker) x 
 player (defender) x 
 unit type (attacking unit) x
 unit type (defening unit) x 
 int (number of wins) x 
 int (number of defeats)
is needed? 

It looks to me like this can be implemented in a straight forward (new
packet, book keeping on the server, savegame expansion, extra dialog
for the client) way.

  (On the statement print "42 monkeys"+"1 snake"): BTW, both perl and Python
  get this wrong. Perl gives 43 and Python gives "42 monkeys1 snake", when 
  the answer is clearly "41 monkeys and 1 fat snake".
