End of Turn Progress Bar

from Stardock Forums
A good idea might be to have a Warlords II end-of-turn progress bar that indicates the other races are moving. It could even change color as each side moved. There were a couple of times in my current game that the end-of-turn wait was so long that I rebooted the computer because I thought it crashed.

The reason those games had that was because the time to wait at the end of the turn was long.

If we do our jobs right, there won't be enough time at the end of turn to justify one on the typical modern hardware setup. (like a 4ghz Pentium V).

Indeed. I'm on a P-200 MMX. At one point, I had a Gameboy on my desk at all time so that I'd have something to do waiting for the end of turn processing to finish.
