1.09u Complete lockup

Looks like i'm one of the unlucky few that the betas have made more unstable >< First lock up was in tactical.When i Alt+tabbed it crashed with a direct X error.

Second was at end of turn.. was a complete lock up.. i could alt+tab or Ctrl+alt+del but although the programs would open in the background Elemental stayed on top regardless. Only way to get out was a hard reboot. Not sure how I would even begin to give any useful data in this instance since hitting the reset button was my only recourse(originally discourse idk wtf i was thinkin lol).

I've got One event listed in my Windows event viewer but not sure if those are any help.

Faulting application elemental.exe, version 1.0.9.32, faulting module msvcr80.dll, version 8.0.50727.4053, fault address 0x000461ab.

Thats from the tactical combat lock.. when i ALt+tabbed out of that one elemental crashed with a direct X error so its probably unrelated to the actual lock up.

Guess I'll switch to testing in windowed mode

Update on the Tactical combat lock up. It seems that when the enemy leader dies sometimes it won't end their turn.. so im stuck either auto resolving or closing out the game via task manager.

Fixed an issue that caused stuck turns in tactical combat if an AI sovereign or champion had a bow.

Saw this in the changelog for v wanted to note that no one had a bow (maybe the AI champ did have a bow since i never gave her a chance to attack but i can't imagine why she would move next to my units as if she was going to melee if she did)in my tactical turn ending issue. Although it sounds like the same issue.

As far as the actual system lock up.. I haven't experienced it again since switching to windowed mode. I'll play around with next version on fullscreen and see if I see it again.
