   Updates 20JUL10

Sally Forth
We just had another *major* Sally Forth and I'm pleased to say it 
worked as intended.

However, 2 "display" issues came up:
The title of the combat report email incorrectly identifies one of 
the parties
The size differential of forces meant that the Sallying attackers 
did not receive the full combat report, rather only the "Raid" version, 
without the defending force composition.

The first issue (Title) has now been fixed.

And - given that the purpose of hiding the defending force levels was to
 prevent the Raid stratagem from being used as a "free scout report" - 
and that this restriction doesn't apply in the case of a Sally Forth, 
I've amended the code to provide full combat reports to both sides 
during a Sally event.

I've also, in the interests of full disclosure especially given 
the weekend's issues, provided a full copy of this Sally Forth combat 
report to the attacking side.
