Two Issue - Effects not showing & AA Issue

[T.C.Douglas]

After a unit fires/bombards (ex: a battleship) it won't show any explosion, and firing, ect just the guns moving.

My Settings:
All Settings: High.
Fullscreen: Yes.
VSync: Yes.
High Detail Strategic View: Yes.
GPU Texture Decode: Yes.
Resolution: 1920x1080
Anti Aliasing: None.

I have:
GPU: HIS Radeon HD 6950 IceQ X
PSU: Coolermaster GX 650W
RAM: Corsair XMS3 16GB
CPU: AMD Phenom 965 Quad-Core Black Edition. Overclocked @ 3.8GHz.

Also, I have an Anti Aliasing issue. If I set the AA from 2x to 8x the pillaging smoke doesn't show, making it a little difficult for me to spot out pillaged tiles.
Any way to get around this?

Thanks for any help.

The problem with the bombarding is known, but sadly no solution for it .

Well that sucks.
What about the A issue where the pillage smoke doesn't show?
EDIT: I put the Leader Graphics to Medium, and cranked the AA to 8x and now the pillage smoke works, so I fixed that.
