Battles are choppy & slow

[zarasophist]

I just started playing EB. My battles seem choppy and slower than on plain RTW. I am I imagining this or is this normal? I am using the same settings as RTW. If not is this a RAM issue?

Thanks a lot.

lethalithy has been lowerd so that battles should take longer.

I dunno what you mean by choppy, but the battles are indeed much slower in EB than RTW. The thing is that the EB units are moving as fast as they should, while in RTW the unit's were running around like some crazy cheetas

If you're talking about framerates then yes EB will probably be a bit slower for most people, not sure by how much (haven't played vanilla in years) but IIRC the unit models are a lot more detailed.
More RAM will always help, outside of battles with EB's nasty load times too.
Cheers

EDIT
btw what are your system specs?

I've just bought myself another 2 GB of RAM - going from 1 GB to 3 GB should make quite a difference!

2GB total is perfect for EB.

3 gb is just insane.....
