Thanks in advance.

yes, it should. Though not very fast. A game booster might not be the worst idea and make sure nothing else is running in background and that you have plenty of disk space for V-RAM

Actually mine is almost the same. The above is for the latest patch, but I found some malware on my pc that was slowing it down. Your laptop should be fine.

Thanks for your reply. Now I have to decide if this is the right game for me. How many pages has the manual?

About 120 pages but not all of that is rules.

It is a very deep game with many levels. Easy to get a working grasp of it but mastering it can be a something else.

But if the Civil War is interesting to you, you don't want to pass it up.

I actually learned ACW1 by doing the in-game tutorials, then using the manual as a ref. (ACW2 is very similar, but with a few nice twists and turns.)

I also run on a laptop, but my chip set is i7.

I concur with Ol Choctaw -- if you like the American Civil War, this game is great.

Oh, and expect to get spanked as you learn the game! It will do that until you get many of the mechanics down.

Thanks, Gentlemen. I have bought the game and am currently struggling with command structure [8D]
