after the 1.05 patch still 2 ongoing problems:

1. Stops responding during tactical battles: Just what it says. I can select units, I can move around the tactical battle map but the turn button stops advancing the turn and I cannot move or attack with any units. I can move and rotate the map though and if I hit the autoresolve buttn, it will let me autoresolve the battle.

2. Graphical performance past turn 200 is still junk: I'm above recommended requirements and have updated video drivers (nVidia card with win 7 x64).  Not much to say on this, this has been reported all over the boards.

I like what I see of the game, just can't play it because it doesn't work.
