Tried every prroton version with "tweaks" from the protondb
Proton_5_13_6
did what was recommended: options.txt to the specified order with 3 lines of code (rezx rezx and fullscreen) settings
please do not call games gold, that do not run. I spend a day on this shit that I could have spend differently if it was clear that it does not run and will never run.
Out of the box, export of battles to Field of Glory II does not work as the user directories are in different wine prefixes. You can use the below script to symlink FoG II into FOG: E and vice versa. NOTE: Ignore my previous protondb report, use the fixed version below
# Fixed Version
# $ STEAM_ROOT is where steam is installed (eg. ~/.steam)
export FOGE="steam/steamapps/compatdata/1011390/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/My Games"
export FOG2="steam/steamapps/compatdata/660160/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/My Games"
ln -s "$STEAM_ROOT/$FOGE/FIELDOFGLORYEMPIRES" "$STEAM_ROOT/$FOG2"
ln -s "$STEAM_ROOT/$FOG2/FieldOfGlory2" "$STEAM_ROOT/$FOGE"
Mouse is laggy when zoomed out. This is likely just performance issue. It is smooth when zoomed in.

The slowness/inertia of the mouse is minimal.
The mouse is slighlty slow, with a sort of inertia. But it is very minimal.
I don't own FoG2 so I couldn't try to export battles in it.
The game failed to run at first throwing an error along the lines "Failed to create device for rendering..."
To fix I did a quick Google and found I needed to add an options.txt file to this location: ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1011390/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/My Games/FieldOfGloryEmpires . In the options.txt file I had just three lines:
RezX 1920 RezY 1080 Fullscreen 0
After that the game booted up beautifully and I've been playing for about an hour now without a hitch.
Unknown(< 1 hour with Proton)Just like with Fields of Glory 2, on first start, game fails to create/detect the monitor resolution. You have to force quit the game if you see a windowed black screen and then manually add a document file named "options.txt" in .steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1011390/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My%20Documents/My%20Games/FieldOfGloryEmpires/ ... and write these lines: RezX 1920 RezY 1080 Fullscreen 0 ... or whatever resolution your monitor supports/you use. After that the game starts and it will overwrite the options.txt with it's regular config entires. Game itself then runs great. No issues.
