In my game as Russia, it is 1855, and I have been having a fascinating time putting down the Shamil rebellion.
I have retaken all of the Caucasus, except for the province of Grozny, where Shamil is sitting with the remainder of his army. When the rebellion started, Shamil appeared in Grozny with a strong army and never moved out, though he did send some of his army out to attack, without him.
I moved a strong force to attack him, and the game crashed in the middle of the battle being displayed, with a pop up box saying that several errors. had occurred. After I clicked on one of the choices, the game crashed to desktop.
I tried the resume button, which took me back to just before I ended turn, ended the turn, and the same sequence described above happened.
I tried resume again, changed some of the moves and decisions, but still attacked Shamil. Same error, at the same time
I tried several other ways of saving, reloading, going back a turn or so, etc, and there was always a crash in the middle of the battle with Shamil.
Finally, I went back to the situation just before I ended the turn the first time, and did not attack Shamil, did not move any troops into Grozny. The turn cycled normally and ended perfectly.
It seems clear that this has something to do with attacking Shamil.
Has anyone seen this before, and does anyone have any ideas on how to attack Shamil without the game crashing?
