I can't get past a CTD

[Sygrod]

I was wondering if someone would be kind and fight a battle on my behalf. I've tried it 5 times and get a CTD every time - even with a clean restart of the machine. I would really like to just get past this battle without having to auto resolve, which will be catastrophic.

The battle is big and the missile troops should make short work on the attacking Ptolemaioi. Unit size is huge, btw.

Let me know and I'll post the save file, and give detailed instructions.

After I tried to start a new campaign, it turns out that EVERY battle ends with CTD halfway through - or just as it seems that I'm going to win.

Wits' end...

Have you taken a look at the technical measures mentioned in the EB installation validation thread?

Yes, but I'll take another look.

Also, something could have got screwed with your instance at some point. You could try to make a backup copy of the installation and install a fresh one to see if it works the same way.

After a clean restart, a defrag and some cleanup I tried again and actually managed to fight the battle to end. Heroic victory. I lost 41 guys and the enemy had 42 left of 2698. An autoresolve would have been catastrophic.
