And 2.00 GHz.

I see the EB Campaign Map! I see my 'Oplitai charging into the Gallic host!

But they are doing so at 0.1 frames per second!

Is it possible in any way to see the dream realised - or will I return to the Medieval: Total War realm forever?

(MTW:VI - XL mod is absolutely marvellous, to note!)

I hope my question is clear enough - the game runs perfectly, but the framerate is paranormally dead.
How can the obstacle be overcome without spending money?
