Variations in mods can certainly cause a problem, but the problem exists without them and without variations in OS. I've never seen it change watching the battle again. Even days later.

Obviously the replay is false. You have to work with the units that actually remain. It's still a handicap to not know what actually happened. Where your strategy went wrong, if it did.

I wonder if this is actually more common than reported. Minor variations in battle results might easily not be noticed. Obviously if you win but the replay shows a loss or vice versa you'll notice, or if major mages or thugs are lost/not lost. But there are differences in the number of chaff lost, I'd rarely catch it.
