CTD on loading issue

That's just too crazy, Quintus. Again, same problem as I had. But it's solvable, so don't give up on this game.

Is there any way around the army-within-an-army bug? I know it's a general RTW bug rather than an EB-specific one.

However I think it was another cloned client ruler that killed my earlier save, given the banner vanished in Pella.

I'm trying to remember how I solved it. Can you attack Pella with a teleported army? If I didn't do it with an army, then Pella wasn't their capital and could be transferred to me by FD.

KH have nearly conquered it several times, and there was a brief rebellion there which whittled their numbers down. Perhaps I should sotp trying to prevent KH's expansion for long enough for them to be killed, then fix it all with FD.

I must admit the temptation to start afresh is quite strong given I might just hit similar problems again (cloning-wise, rather than army-within-army).

It's gone into the irrevocable CTD that killed my last game again. This time it's Pella that's the problem, just had a crash on my spy trying to look into the settlement.

Restart...right now I'm running a full virus-scan before I reinstall the game; all those long periods of time with it disabled might have allowed something to take hold (I disconnect the internet while I'm playing too, so it's not exposed at the time).

It's certainly not the internet, Quintus. I'm playing on a machine that isn't even connected (ever).

Could you upload a save?

I meant that disabling your virus protection while connected to the internet is a bad idea; thus when I was playing with it off, I pulled the cable out.

Bit late now, I've uninstalled and deleted everything.
