I hope this is an appropriate place for this thread. I was fighting a battle for my AAR. I had just taken Tarsos from the AS and thus shared a border with the Ptolies for the first time in my campaign (they had Antiocheia).
Sure enough once I got my army back to Mak for retraining, they blockaded the port of Tarsos and quickly followed that up by sending three stacks at me. The first stack besieged Tarsos, and after a few turns they assaulted. Playing on huge I had a good 3/4 stack in the city of levy phalagites and kretan archers (3000 men total). They had a mixed stack of 20 units (4000 men).
They attacked me with something like 8 rams. I managed to burn two of them down with flaming arrows, but I knew I couldn't stop them so I set up all my phalangites to defend the narrow streets and protect the square. At this point my laptop is chugging trying to deal with the 7000 men on the field. The battle was so epic I couldn't resist the f10 key to try to cature some screens for the AAR. (I use fraps).
As soon as I punched that key I knew I was in trouble. It was just too much for my notebook to handle and BOOM, CTD. Haha! I was afraid it would happen but I jut couldn't help but try. I've had more annoying CTDs than this, but I wanna hear your most annoying CTD stories! Try to keep them 1.2 related if possible, bugs don't count. I'm talking massive (your computer just can't handle it) battles!
