I have been playing BTS on Windows 10 ever since I upgraded from Windows 7. Everything worked the same, I have the latest patch and no problems.
A few days ago Windows 10 made the Creators Update or whatever was that last big one. Since then BTS has become unplayable. Game starts fine but after a few turns it slows down horribly. Entering and exiting a city takes forever, everything is so slow and even wonder movies are choppy. It is far worse then when I played on an old machine on Windows XP when the game first came out! I can save, quit and run the game again and have a turn or two of normal gameplay before the slow down again. I need to point out this is a brand new game, so this has nothing to do with being a long way into the game or anything (I even intentionally made a small map).

Details:
- I am playing on a laptop. It is powerful enough to run the game (has been doing it for years).
- The game is using the dedicated graphics card, I checked
- I can't update any drivers since they aren't supported on Windows 10 but, again, the game ran fine before this last update
- I tried all combinations of compatibility options I could think of
- I even tried game mode (disappointing, only option really is that this is a game)
