    I recently got this game and it's great except for the fact that I have to wait so long and watch the lag between turns. Is there any fix or tweak for this? I'm running the game on my desktop in below sig which I feel is plenty to run the game at maxed settings which I am with AA off.

    Between turns is when it's calculating the AI moves... is this a late-stage game? Or any game? I'm betting part of it is simply the DDR2 RAM as well.
