Does anyone else have a problem with seeing how many casualties you inflicted upon an opponent's stack as you fire upon them? It generally works fine when I initially boot up a game but then for some unknown reason, I fire and it just whirls for a while and then it shows how many casualties that my opponent incurred upon me when firing back. I generally have to shut down and bring the game back up and then it will work correctly for a while (time frame for this happening varies). This happens on both Win 10 and Win 7 and has been happening for a few years in my HPS/JTS games (yes, I'm awfully slow about asking but I've been busy making moonshine and slopping hogs and the like).

Same computer or does it happen on other computers also?

When this happens, you might try toggling Settings > On Map Results as a temporary palliative.

I, for one, cannot recall this happening. However, if you have other programs running at the same time, or your computer is being slowed by some kind of virus, that may result in a lapse of info being displayed. My 2 cents!

Haven't seen this kind of behavior.
Interesting would be in which games this happens, the just released Petersburg or an older title?

I agree with Berto. Toggle off on-map results.

It happens in at least most of the HPS/JTS games except that I don't have Petersburg. As an additional note, it has happened with two or three different computers used but apparently it's only happening to me so I guess that this is a non issue.

Works fine with on map results toggled off.

Perhaps you should just stick to making the moonshine and skip using it.
