Re: Any suggestions for speeding up turn processin

I don't really understand why strategic combat is limited to the same speed as tactical. The whole point of stratagic combat is to get the combat over with as quickly as possible, for combats that...

Re: OT: VISTA

FreeCiv is the only 4x game except for FreeOrion, who's progress can charitably described as "glacial".

Re: What is the problem with SE5?

Actually, the major problem for me at the moment is how sluggish the game feels on my machine. The glacial turn processing, and the infi-small delays whenever you click on something, really detract...

Re: Balance Mod

I haven't had a chance to play a great deal, but it seems that the AI is now relatively competitive in terms of ship numbers, resources &c, but it still doesn't make effective use of it's ships.
