64x version of Dominions?

I wish, but unfortunately it will only use 1 core

.

Maybe COE 3 will utilize all cores!

More specifically, dom3 is not multi-threaded, so it can't use mutliple cores. The best machine to run dom3 on is going to be one with the highest possible single-core performance.

This is an even bigger problem with, eg, Dwarf Fortress, which makes Dom3's runtime issues look like small potatoes, and is also single-threaded.

Yeah, that's a lot more specific.
