What is not clear about the assignment? The page already mentions in three places that you have to do this by clicking on the move of the piece in the table (In the permanent help text below the table, the help text that appears when you open the morph & confine section, and the introductory text).

D'oh! Once again, I miss the painfully obvious.

A row of buttons for the win and explode options could be located above the table for setting the capture matrix.

And don't forget the "blank" button (for removing entries placed by mistake). :)

Perhaps there should be a button 'Duplicate'...

That seems a little awkward, but much better than anything I could come up with. (My best idea was allowing a space-slash-space in the move section, separating the two different moves.)
