Seems RTW is laggy with more troops, whatever are the pcs are you running.I mean, RTW will run faster if you have a better pc, but that will be useless if you play with much troops.

Remember, when you play RTW, sometimes its good to close programs which are not need.For example, never use an Internet connection when you play.

i always disconnect the internet and disable firewall/antivirus software when playing but for some reason before i had it repaired it ran ok[ upto about18000 units] and i also had half a gig less memory then. it runs very laggy now for some reason.??

Do you have windows defender?

If so this could be causing the problem, for some reason it starts running in the background using up CPU.

My games were lagging due to this so I got rid of it and now I have no delays on huge units.

That is the only thing I can think of...

Hi jimmy,
Perhaps this (http://tw.stratcommandcenter.com/general/tech-guide/) could help you. Good luck, cheers!
