Hmm, I don't know, I have long waiting times between turns with all 4 opponents in advanced stages of the game only, when they've built up their cities and many units which they're moving along the map. Otherwise it's pretty smooth.
How many cycles have you set while playing the game? If it's less than 20000 that might explain it, set it to 24000-25000 if possible and that should help it.

I was just at +/- 8000 cycles, as the games felt smooth (out of the waiting time during 2 turns) at that point, i will try to see if by increasing it i can lower that waiting time.
Thanks

Use DOSBox, or if it's only a sound issue VDMSound can work too.

Or on a default dosbox config:
choose Sb original
hit the 'configure card' button and set params to:
adr220 hex
IRQ7
DRQ1
Works fine.
For music ànd digitized effects.

Then you did something wrong.
Not 'a' soundcard, SB original for music and effects.
Also hit the 'configure' button, and set params properly for music AND effects.
Works fine for me, really, default dosbox config file, nothing altered.

Did you correctly unpacked? You should have some 123 files in you game dir.
Maybe you would better delete the game folder and start over from scratch, can help.


[Edit]
There you'll find the two config files for MoM in dosbox 0.72.
Overwrite the old ones.

Should you still have problems, reply there and give ALL your mount lines, fully detailed please.
