Yesterday I found a way to get the game to run a little smoother-not having so many object in the air(not having 10 or 20 B52 in the air at the same)and only send 1 or 2 Harpoon .

I'm playing Wargasm and I had every B52 and tanker in the air-game keeps freeze therefore only 2-4 airplane in the air.

Have just been reading this:
"No-pulse time mode is the default setting. When using time acceleration (particularly at high values, e.g. 1:30 seconds or 1:1 minute) the map updates much more smoothly and the user experience is significantly improved. However this option requires a fast computer, and older computers may experience lags."

Until now I had my settings on no-pulse and my computer is from 2010.

IF you have the funds available, I highly recommend an upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate. I also ran Vista during beta and saw similar performance issues. Not to say an OS upgrade is a cure all for speed, but Vista doesn't handle multi-tasking as well as WIn7.

Also playing the Wargasm scenario. It's a bit of a draw on my system too, though have found grouping my B-52's as opposed to single ships all flying to the same release point a bit easier. Then, ungroup them to send to various targets. On a side note, it's a bit un-balanced on the number of missiles the Russians have versus the 92nd. I won't tell you how many, but it's a tough scenario to win and haven't beaten it yet, after 4 attempts.

Good luck with it and let me know your outcome. I'm curious if you can beat it or at least not loose many of your city markers.
