Slitherine

Here are a list of bugs I encountered while playing through the game again.

1) The third turret of the Colorado battleship fires in the opposite direction of the other turrets.

2) Some of the units turn into white texturless models when destroyed, the ones I can remember of off the top of my head are:

Various Japanese APCs(having gone through the Allied Campaign yet so not sure about the Allied APCs).

The Fortress

The M2 90mm AA gun

3) The when the AI takes it's turn there is a massive drop in performance(especially on big maps with a lot of units) and I have a really beefy laptop

4) When I start the game I get a black screen until I close the lid on my laptop and reopen it, then the game runs fine.

5) The Music tends to cut out some times, muting in it then turning it back on fixes it.

Regarding point 3, there is an option to pause AI calculations when playing animations. This can help if you see framerate issues during AI calculations.

do I have to edit a config file?

No, it's under the in game preferences (I think under the performance tab, from memory).

alright

I'm also getting crashes to desktop at random

I'm getting the occasional crash as well, and sometimes a multiplayer turn will launch but not load. But these are all with (my...) custom scenarios.
I have not experienced any of the other problems some users have had. Guess certain combinations of hardware/OS/other stuff installed may screw things up..
