All my post-battle analysis comes from inspecting the units after the battle, seeing who got hurt the most, which units need to be rotated out, who should be shifted to another leader, etc. Personally, I can't wait for the expanded results they want to include. Some of the ideas I've heard about them would bring the whole business of commanding an army and reading reports from your subordinates to see how the battle went into much sharper focus.
Knowing more than the fact that Early was blamed for suffering heavy losses will be a huge improvement. Why did he? Was it because his command was inferior? Or was the support that was supposed to be on his flank absent? So basically, I agree with you guys that battle reports could definitely be improved, but they'll come, I guarantee it, because I'm not going to stop bugging them about it.
