defragged hard drive, a quad 2.4ghz laptop (I know it's a single core game, but... my computer still uses all cores equally when it's running, at least from Task Manager's viewpoint).
I think a few things can be done, change some graphic options, pick a smaller map...
but still, I'm wasting 10-15 seconds of my life inbetween turns. I've always accepted this as an acceptible loss for a great game, when I have nothing else better to do with my time, but now... my life has responsibilities, such as work, and school... so when I play, I want my turn count how to justify my time.
there's got to be a way to make this faster... I have enough space to dump it to a ramdrive, but to be honest, I think the problem is somewhere else, because I have win7 and it caches commonly used files (maybe not game files?)
One BIG pet peeve, is when I alt-tab out to go online... the game pauses!? wtf... it's turn based... why did you pause? Any way to fix that?
