I dont know if you are already informed, but just in case (a too long thread to check it). I have been trying to play at marathon speed and it seems that it does not work as on original DoC. I tried to begin 300 AD scenario and I have appeared on year ~ 2500 BC (as if the game had really started in 4000 BC). Either way, all technologies are discovered in a turn. It's a shame because I wanted to test your work and it does not seem so realistic/fun to me to play at normal speed anymore. A greeting.
