Decided to upgrade to Crusades about a month ago. I see that I have the latest patch update so not sure if that has any effect on the game I created but not too happy. I played the largest map possible, slowest time frame so I can enjoy a long last epic game. Not sure about when it happened but after I hit the turn button I have to wait an average of 5 min before it process the next turn. I thought Crusades was suppose to have the end game in mind especially when it comes to computer processing power. I don't think I had this issues with the original game and I'm positive I was way further along and didn't have to wait 5 min per turn. Might have something to do with the galaxy size but didn't have this issues at the beginning stage. I even started to eliminate computer opponents thinking that might free up some of the computer thoughts with less players to worry about but no still about a 5 min wait per turn. I also not sure if this is a glitch in game but when you upgrade a fully sized fleet from a commander to whatever upgrade the number of ships in fleets stays the same but shows an overflow of ships. Once you remove a ship from fleet you can't return it back because of the overflow. Not sure if this was suppose to be allowed in game but it seems a nice cheat for those fleets with max size and want promotion effect. Yes you don't move as many turns but size of fleets wins battles. I'm going to start a new game in the high hopes that my original Crusades game was just glitched since it was created before latest patch. I would like to play the game without a 5 min wait so I can really enjoy the endgame. One can only hope.
