I have never played around with the cycles to be honest, so i dont know know if that would help - i do know time should not move when you are in the status screen and page 2 is accessed by single clicking gently on white section of the green triangle in the top left - it is a bit iffy though,if you click too hard, you go back to page 1. Try not to let it annoy you though, the only info you need is on page 1 and its the water table, for checking resources i look in the warehouse and for moral i look in the flag.
The game turn is small no matter where you play it, Dosbox or Amiga and does seem like a rush job at first, but you will work out a good routine. Build all crucial buildings near the flag so when you zoom to that land on the map, you can quickly dive in and change your research, bribe the church or look at your goods.

Agree on that. I play it for the 1st time for me, but I already realized that it's obviously better to concentrate the builings around the flag for time-saving purposes (not as mentioned in the manual which suggests e.g. to build the church on a hill).
I also found out that the game runs very smoothly at 10.000 cycles. Only the mentioned 2nd statistic page is to be reached MUCH better as 3.000 cycles. So I installed the game through D-Fend at 10.000 cl and 7.000 up/down-switch with the short-cuts (ctrl-F11 and ctrl-F12).
Seems to be a very interesting game. Think I even like it more than popolous. It deserves a 5 from me
