How should I interpret the enemy counters?

For example 3=13, what does that mean?

Or 1?3

From way I gather and may not be the exact wording in the manual
the 3 = 13 is combat value of 3 and modified combat value due to terrain and fortifications is 13

and 1 ? 3 is a unit that seen but not high detection and gives you a basic indication not a hard look of it hence the ?

Most of this is from the manual, just slightly modified in my own hand.

This is a preference that can be set in the options to either CV-Move or COMBAT.

If CV-Move is selected then the counters will display the CV and Movement Points remaining. If COMBAT is selected then the counters will display the CV value followed by another CV value that accounts for the fortification defense modifier

In all cases the CV displayed is the total for all units in the hex and the MPs displayed is the most MPs remaining by any unit in the hex. The default setting is CV-Move. Note: Regardless of the Unit Counter Info setting, enemy units will always be displayed on the map as if the setting is COMBAT; i.e. with the CV value followed by the CV value with the fortification defense modifier.
