Help me stop losing my interest!

[javaslinger]

I just wrote a post in another thread about how I keep stopping playing SEIV but my interest never dies, if that makes any sense.

It dawned on me that what generally occurs is that midway through a full game the micromanagement gets so time consuming that eventually one day I can't get myself to sit down and start moving everything to the next front...

I know the interface of SEIV pretty well. I never use ministers. What can I do to help out with micromanagement. Not just interface tips but strategies.

Thanks,
