I played West Front a ton as a kid, and I'm considering buying the campaign series package now... but one thing that used to drive me absolutely crazy was how long the artillery phase would take. Is there any way to accelerate that part?

thanks.

I'm pretty sure there is a selection for fast AI player now, to speed up replays and such.

No more. It's been replaced by Options > Allied/Axis Animation Speed...

So setting the speed to the max will help quickens things. Unfortunately, it's all or nothing. You can't speed up only artillery firing and nothing else. Everything speeds up across the board.

In addition the new option mentioned above, if you aren't interested in knowing what the impact results are for the casualties, you can press ENTER a number of times to skip through the reports.

I generally always watch the AI turn using the 2D map view (the No. 4 "hot key")... It speeds things up while still giving enough time to see the results.
