All,

Just bought AoE--never thought I'd see the day I'd be getting hooked into a game like this! This is scary! I never played the game on the PC so I guess I never knew what I was missing (though I may be buyng the PC version soon after all.)

My question is this: the Axe froze up on me while I was trying to save my last Random Map game (two players, Medium Map Moderate Difficulty). Obviously, when I did a soft reset the save file was pretty much toast. Is this a common occurence with the the PPC edition when save files reach a certain size? I hope not, but I thought maybe some of you seasoned Axim AoE players might have encountered similar experiences and know some way to avoid it. The Axim hardly ever freezes up on me in general, but owing to the size of the AoE program, I guess it shouldn't be totally unexpected.

Well, time to go fend off some Greek Siege Elephants...
