Persistent CTD w/any battle in Iberia

[bovi]

I'm pretty sure everything is patched - here's the Installation Validation after putting the patches in, and it at least looks to me like all the unit descriptions are added?

I can spot your errors, allow me to point them out:

Missing file: .\data\packs\patch_1.pak
Added file: .\data\patch_1.pak

(snip)

Missing file: .\eb\data\sprites\african\ebsprite_missile_african_slingers_all.spr
Added file: .\data\sprites\african\ebsprite_missile_african_slingers_all.spr

As you may see, you have installed patch_1.pak in the wrong directory. And so you have with the fixes.

[Sorry this is so long - bound to be an easier way?]

You seem to have pasted the list twice, so yes. But your output is indeed long, and most of it is because you've installed the unit documentation inside your RTW, which the validation is seeing as added files. This part is harmless.
