The map is absolutely gorgeous, makes the game look and feel more polished than ever before.
I had a similar problem, but more amusing. England declared a crusade on the Creek... in 1399. Pretty sure no one knows the sea zones to get there.. :rofl:
My only dislike is how easy it is to amass Cultural tradion is now. Just spam paintings, no cost besides Magistrates, and they are fairly easy to generate.
There is a strange behaviour I wanted to ask about: more often than not, enemy units in a war are faster than mine (even comparing same stacks types -inf, inf+cav-) even when my general has better maneouver or they lack a general whilst I have one.
This leads to the annoying feature of your killing stack moving and the cursor saying 'arriving 5 december' while after a while, the enemy small stack moves just in time to leave the spot 'on 4 december', just one day before its ultimate and well-deserved doom, and repeating it as long as they are not cornered or decide to stop.
A honest question: is this a cheat to favour AI? Because if it is, I ask anyone knowing how to disable it, it's incredibly annoying, frustrating, and useless as the AI ends losing anyway, just in a more boring time.

Seems from the comments, that it's like Vicky 2: The lag all over again. It seems to be related to graphics unfortunately. You guys can try setting it to only use core 3, or 2 on your processor, it might help.
...And that's why multicore support is more and more needed as paradox games move forward.
Lag? I get no lag when playing.. Same speed or faster than httt.
It's odd, DW runs so fast for me I don't really like using speed 5 anymore. I run it through the debugger to slow it down a bit.
*sigh* what kind of pc you have, me wants too
I got win 7 with 4 gigs of ram and quad core CPU and still its at least 20% slower than httt
Lag I have not. Paradox Connect doesn't work, perhaps due to the "_" in my user name, but no worries there, I don't care for achievments anyway. But the cascading alliance system is a bit worrying. My War of English Imperialism against Scotland found me at war with pretty much the entire HRE + Poland with vassals. And France's colonial war on Shawnee just turned into global conflict on a massive scale...
If anything Id like a speed level between fastest and just one notch below now Max speed is just too fast, definitely faster than HTTT. Obviously, it slowed down on SOME rigs tho, thats strange.
Anyhow... Im fairly happy with DW overall. But there's a bunch of small issues adding up, from Ming to the HRE, that suggests it'll be a much better game after the first patch. This brings me to my question... I'm hoping that we can expect a Beta patch in the coming weeks? Early patches sure helped HTTT alot!
Im just cautiously optimistic, because I've read recently there may not be betas anymore I hope thats not true! Would definitely be great if we had a patch sometimes during the Holidays fixing the most obvious stuff... Mostly because I have you know, two weeks off to play with this baby
I tried a game and set the AI aggressiveness to Low and it seemed to help, or I lucked out on the alliance wars.
