Early exploration is supposed to be harsh.

Duh! I completely forgot about that! Stoopid me!
Thats not going to be a problem - Have one not far away.
That waiting after the end of turn still sucks a lot. Anyone an Idea where that comes from?

The cult of the dragon (cotd) is automatically founded in whichever city you build Eurebates in. (or if the sheiam build Abashi first, they get to found the cotd)
1. That "ritual" is the effect when the armegeddon counter reaches 40.
2. Don't know about the turn slowing. Was Hyborem just summoned?

Yes Hyborem AND The Mercuriens have arrived not long ago, but I played several other games and it never got THAT slow.

That must be really al lot of workers then, and the missions must be long...
My "repairs" are completet since quite some time now.

Have you saved, quit, are restarted? That might help, maybe the event used up most of your computers memory.

War Chicken, you need to have a good computer to play civilization, I recommanded a 4.0 GHz CPU speed of a AMD processor, 2 GB RAM, and a better video card like a ATI Radeon X1800.
my specs are a 3.00 GHz Intel pentium 4 processor, 1 GB RAM, and ATI Radeon X600 w/256.0 MB Hyperthread memory.

Hi. That's what I first thougt. I even restarted my whole PC, after a rstart of civ didn't bring a speedup. Didn't help. Maybe Grey Fox was right with the Sleeping AI Workers. I can't imagine it another way.

I dont have SUCH a Machine, but mine isn't bad. I've got a 3 GHz with Radeon X800 and 1,5GB RAM. I therefor haven't put the graphic options on maximum, and it mostly ran quite smooth. What made me wonder is, that it was from one turn on - never had this before.
@All
Thank you for the support, unfortunately the Problem has got "solved" by itself. I played with locked assets, and was dumb enough to install the new patch in the middle of the Game
So I had to start a new game.

You don't really need high systemspecs to run civ4. That's nonsense. I run civ with a Radeon 9550, an Athlon XP 2000 and some 750 MB Ram. As long I don't go beyond standard maps everything is fine no matter what graphicsettings I use(that' why I use maximum settings here). With Kael's Speedmod even large maps got almost playable for me -> the bigger the map and the more units there are on it the slower civ is(mainly because of the AI considering what to do with the units not the modelfiles themselves). Compared to other games(like most newer RTS games) gfx of civ need ridiculously low system ressources. You don't need a good gfx card for it just a good cpu can be an advantage if you want to play huge maps.
Edit:
So my advice to you War Chicken is. Set the graphicsettings to max and enjoy the artwork!

I had that when I just installed CIV4, but 'cos I mostly play huge Maps, I reduced it to get a smoother game.
well first off i wanna say excellent job to the entire team behind this, it is by far the greatest pc game ive ever played. youve managed to take a complex game such as civ iv and make it into an even more complex and deep time consuming game that doesnt allow you to just stop at a scheduled time, im sure you all know what i mean, lol.
i was playin it for a while when ice (the first phase i believe, correct me if im wrong) was in the .16j phase but then ended up playing a months of WoW for a change of pace and i come back to fire and its even more complex than ever, lol.
my question.....my game crashes at random spots for some reason, after the first two crashes i went into the folders and changed the "assets" folder to "customassets.old" because i remember having to do that from before, but it still crashed. any ideas what it may be?
and another thing i noticed too is Orthos (spellin?). he came stompin into my lands not long after he came into play, i had a stack of warriors in the closest city but as you can assume he was able to wipe those out until he finally ran over my city. he then went and conquered another of my cities, which is fine because at that time i was sending in a stack of pyre zombies...anyways, sorry if ive been rambling but with my stack of zombies right next to Orthus i saw that my combat odds were 0.2% and i attacked anyways for the hell of it plus zombies will blow up and do more damage to him anyways......well....that one zombie kicked his a** and i got his axe.
was there somethin wrong with the combat odds or did i just get INCREDIBLY lucky?

Like killing orthus whith a scout?
sweet, no wonder i killed him then. i was playin on chieftan, which i normally do because i dont like it when the AI gets unfair advantages and im not really that great to begin with 
im one who likes to build a lot in his cities before creating my massive army and conquerin the world and on harder difficulties the AI isnt quite as tolerant of letting me do so.
maybe next game ill send in a raven and peck his eyes out, lol

No, Im not sure. Make sure you have the latest patch.
If the crash is reproducable (it always crashes on a given turn) get a svae right before the crash, attach it and I will check it out.
Thanks!
