OK, forget diplomacy, look at the strat. map. 1.3 introduced cross-cpu optimization that completely eliminated (for me) strategy map glitches such as 'hickups' when scrolling and freezing of the map when clicking on an army/fleet. This was a known problem before 1.3 and was due to the way the game calculated the potential move area for the unit selected. The issue was fixed nicely in 1.3, but now it's back to where it was before 1.3. And what do we get from the CA? "No more patches!..." At least, they should fix what they have broken.
Actually they said it was the last major patch planned and they have dealt with most of the issues.

As a matter of fact, after 1.5 a new patch was released to fix artillery and other misc items but this was considered a hotfix.
