Whats the best speed setting on Kali?
When starting the game with one peasant only, full speed is best for a short while. After three or four buildings are completed, it is best to slow the game to one notch below that. This makes units more responsive, so it is possible to cast spells, react to attacks, and so forth. If the lag in a game is particularly bad, the speed should be slowed to about the midpoint to reduce the effect of the lag. Note that lag is caused almost entirely by network and modem performance. Turning music on or off does not help with lag.
