Battle Speed

A 3/4 speed might be nice.

I have no problems with the lower and normal speeds, but the fastest speed isn't fast enough for me. Any time I want to use that fast speed setting, it means I'm just sitting back and watching for an extended period of time for some reason. Since I'm not controlling anything, I wish there was a setting that really blazed through the battle. As it stands, the top setting isn't really that fast at all.

I always play on the second fastest or the fastest speed.

Pause(hotkey 'P') is your friend.

I have roughly the same level of situational awareness as a squashed hedgehog. I actually fight on the normal setting, because I like seeing the guys fighting and also because if I used a higher speed and the pause button (I use normal and pause anyway), instead of a unit somewhere being shot in the back by a completely random infantry unit the computer has been maneuvering in the most unrealistic ways possible for ten seconds, a unit somewhere will be completely decimated by a random infantry unit the computer has been maneuvering in the most unrealistic ways possible.

In general, I find combat is too fast paced for my tastes. It's not so much a problem of control, though battles can be a handful on the default speed, but also of feel. The current pace doesn't seem fitting to the period, plus I general prefer slower, more sweeping battles. If I wanted to save time, I'd autocalc.
