 === Automatic Cleaning of these 2 stringlists ===
-Everytime a new turn is started
+Everytime a new turn is started the logs from these regime from the previous turn will be destroyed. This removal operation is done immediately after 'early turn events' scripts execution.
+Example for 2 players (germany and ussr)
+round 1, turn 1, germany
+round 1, turn 2, ussr
+round 2, turn 1, germany : all battles initiated by germany before round 2 are removed
+round 2, turn 2, ussr : all battles initated by ussr before round 2 are removed
+etc..
+=== About reading these stringlists ===
+Probably best to iterate through all the battle rows and if you find one you want to check the units on do a CheckFindInStringlist on historical rows searching for Battle ID#.
+Then read that row and continue to the next untill no more rows or the next row has a different Battle ID#. The historical rows will always have the Battle ID# in nice little bunches and any new rows are added on the end of the list after new battles.
