Don't forget this is real-time strategy, not turn-based strategy game.  

Soved!

That said, Olympic Champion could be an appropriate tier 3 rank name for Spartans if such was ever introduced.

so maybe there were about two olympic champions in the spartan army who served as elite soldiers, while hippeis were an established elite contingent. name should be changed already.

Well apparently if people claim that Vulkan is faster than any Linux rendering API (which it clearly is) then I'll try switching to that. Also thanks a lot for the info EDIT: It works! I changed from OpenGL to Vulkan and things seem to be great. The game loaded and I got to play with the friend I told you about in the OP. Thanks a lot!

No no, it's a known bug with OpenGL. IIRC the patch has been backported in the flatpak. It will also be in A27.1 which hasn't yet come out.
