Faster gameplay

[BigDuke66]

Gentlemen,
is there any good way to speed up the complete gameplay?

Haven't measured it but comparing PC to the Civil War or Napoleonic Battles series it seems to take twice as long(if not longer) to fire your own unit and for the possible AI defensive fire. With the large campaign scenarios that are much bigger then anything the other series can provide it seems that a lot time is wasted by the bad timing that the PC series provides here. If it would be fast as the CW or Napy series one could literally save days when playing a campaign scenario.
