The loadgame bug affects the unmodified game exactly as it does modified games. You clearly have done no research on this bug at all. Please refrain from making conclusions until you have done so. That goes for the thread creator as well.
Wow, step away from the keyboard. Just calm down, and listen. I had done research on this bug, but unfortunately:

A) It says pretty much no where that it affects RTW vanilla. From what i can find, people only say it affects 1.1 and 1.2. Sorry if i don't know everything, but i'm not a super-genius!!!

B) Unlike most panicky people who think they will get a CTD everytime they click end turn so they always save, i don't save so often, which is why i have prolly never encountered the bug. I play on RTW for an hour or so, and then save and quit.

And as for you Shambles, if you have a problem with this game, and have nothing better to do than preach to us all about RTW being crap, then (pardon my french) bugger off to the MTW forums, where you can talk to your hearts content about the supposedly better game. Just don't come here moaning about how RTW is an expensive paper-weight.
