You can increase the CPU-cycles in DosBox with CTRL+F12 and decrease with CTRL+F11, but don't set them higher than your CPU can handle, else it will be even slower again.
The only other way to play Master of Magic is to run it in the Dos-prompt in Windows 98, but then it's little too fast there, so you'll need Slowdown for Windows: http://newton.pbk-solutions.de/ncu_nbu/slowdown.htm
It won't even run under Windows XP by the sound turned off, I think...

Master of Magic has an absurdly high conventional memory requirement. There is no way you could get it to run under any version of windows because of that. You will need a fairly good computer to get it to run smoothly under DOSBox. I'dd say a 1.2 Ghrz will do the trick.

No other game could drag me to computer like this one, and I played a lot of good games. Still, I guess there some good things when you live in poor country, like the fact that I still got Intell Pentium 133Mhz. Yap, I can play EVERY SINGLE GAME ON THIS SITE. Don't worry, I'll enjoy for everyone. pozzz

Well surely one of the best and most inovative strategy games around as I have rarely heard so many different opinions about the "only" way to win the game!

It is realy sad there was never a real sequal, altough when thinking more closly about it, it might be better that way!

I used to play as the Trolls. May not have been the best choice from a strategic point of view, but in unit battles you could often just hit the other guy, run around until you healed, hit them again, rinse and repeat.

I played this game... ooh, ages ago, but I could have sworn there was an option to create a new wizard, or at least customise them (selecting their schools of magic, special abilities etc) am I wrong, or is it here somewhere?

I see the itemmake command is still there for creating absurdly powerful artefacts tho...

You can't make a custom Wizard on Intro difficulty, you have to be playing Easy or higher.

One of the best games ever made--if only the AI had been up to everything else. Hopefully, Stardock's MoM 2 will be better in that respect.
