After playing this game for a few weeks I have realised just how much of a waste of time it is. I log on - spend a few frantic minutes setting construction tasks, Research tasks and scouting for supplies and send my troops to attack and then sit and watch multi coloured bars work their way across the lower left of the screen for anything up to and beyond 147 HOURS. I realise I can spend money and speed this up but why should I spend? I have no desire to rule the world, just have a bit of fun but it is soooo slow.
