How do you Keep Track of Battles in PBEM?
Even when I've only had a couple of won battles in the other players' turns before I get to play I get completely confused and paranoid about where this has happened.
How do I deal with this sort of thing if and when I have a big war?

Save your old turn & compare what you had then with what you have now........

That sounds plausible... I wonder, can you have two games of SMAC open at once?

Not that I have seen, but you could put the turns on adjacent computers
AS to the initial question, this is the one thing I really dislike about PBEM. In SP you see where attackers hit you from and where they go (to some extent)-- PBEM play would be so much better if the game gave you a quick play of any units that passed through the view of one of your units
