I've never had this error, ever, in my three years playing this game.

Well, that's the first time I experienced it as well. Though I must admit that in EB 1.1 it's already my 4th campaign, as 3 others CTD-ed as well, but with no error at all, I was just lazy to post them. But with this one.. I came to especially love my campaign with Saka (first time I play them), and now quite early I get this error... oh well... At least I know that it's not my PC.
What in the World is KH doing that causes the crash?!

BTW, Running rtw.exe in Admin mode in Vista does not make a difference! :(

And also, Process Monitor does not reveal anything interesting, as right before the crash it is just succesfully accessing existing files.

And I just tried a save game by LotW89 (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=102920), it too crashes on my PC. Must be a similar problem then.

Sorry I did not post it right away, but nothing meaningful really - "Pure virtual function call"

Yes it is meaningful. Unfortunately it is as bad as it gets.
It means there is error in RTW code that only CA can fix.
There is nothing EB team can do about it although it would be good to know what actions are making RTW.exe call this pure virtual function.

Try to take control over KH and cancel all recruitment and construction, and move all characters and armies of theirs. Then return control to your own faction. See the linked thread for how.

Thank you for your suggestion. But I could not find a linked thread that explains how to get control over naother faction. Could you please point me to a link?

But I don;t think it's possible unless you attach debugger to a process, right?
