Campaign Map Lag

[YNWA]

Apart from that lag, past the 50 years in the game, when hit the next turn button the game makes all the moves for the other countries and in the marata or however the name is(india) confederacy it stays for 30mins!!!! until it moves to the next country. That´s more than a sandwitch. Anyone has that problem too?

Had the same problem in my first Sweden campaign, but with the Mughals instead and already around 1715. Since I was trading with them I could see certain Mughal areas on the map. From what I saw there must've been the cause for the game to almost freeze to a standstill on their turn. Around Hindustan the AI kept spamming armies that wouldn't move! It had at least 20-30 different armies with around 1-4 regiments in them each. No wonder it freezed, all they did was standing there twitching from time to time as they looked like they tried to move, but couldn't. I guess all the concentrated sprites, graphic in one place was to much for the system to handle. Why they got stuck I don't know, just bad luck I guess. Luckily for me it hasn't happen in my second and current campaign (yet!). I don't know if theres a workaround for this or not, or even if the new patches fixed these kind of problems, but if you're patched you know, I wasn't at the time.

SO is there anyway to get around this thing or is another screw-up of this very well programmed game?

I don't think so myself . I've had it happen with several different factions {I forget what the first 2 campaigns or factions were} and the latest is a United Provinces campaign where it happened last turn with the Plains Nations {took a good 10 minutes} and then just this turn with the Danish {again , 10 minutes} however the Plains Nations only took a second {I think they chose to research casinos this time} .
Same game , 2 consecutive turns yet 2 different faction with very different environments in different theaters .

I certainly didn't see any large concentrations of troops .
