the game stopped letting me progress in turns at turn 436, i can still look around, add and subtract things from Q's but when i hit the end turn button it does nothing...........so then i saved it, and quit and tried to reload and it froze loading (something i get often but failed to report)
file up to the point of turn progression failure
