Any way to speed up turns for games with more than 6 factions?
Turns are taking a long time. Any way to speed this up? Like lowering graphics or something?

There's also making your next session simultaneous turns, which is the fastest available option, in this game.

I think zooming out to the paper map mode helps?

There was a mod for AoW3 I'm pretty sure that set the AI's turn to always be at max speed as if you were constantly doing this, so maybe one will show up here too.

thanks for the great tips!

or zoom right in to an area without AI units.

The entire reason turns are long right now is the AI shuffle. The AI isn't keeping armies together, so every turn they shuffle things around as they head somewhere and thereby waste a lot of the turn time.

Sure; kill some of them.

any way to turn on simultaneous turns for a saved game?

late game is unbearable; I made the mistake of of vassalling everyone and without the fog of war the turns took 40 minutes or something utterly ridiculous around 150 turns into it.. even with it zoomed out.

Yeah I got bored with the smaller maps and it doesn't help that I have infections respawning every 10 turns (What can I say? I love their loot)

I hate to do it but I think I'll start a new game with simultaneous turns and a slightly smaller map.

Nope.
If you don't select simultanious turns before the game begins, it's locked in.

yes invent a faster ssd and get a top end cpu and 4090
and have htem make you a version of said game in assembly for your pc
that will make it run faster
MUCH Faster

Do not forget to logout of your Paradox account when playing single player. Unless you start the game via the executable or have it logged out via launcher, you need to repeat the process at each start.

Setting the game in the beginning to simultaneous turns makes a world of difference! Thank you!

Careful, just remember that the AI gets to move at the same time you do, and it is going to be better than you at sudden movements like hunting down a fleeing stack, or continuing to flee itself.

You're right, and I've noticed that too. I still think overall it's better than waiting 5 minutes for a turn lol
