[0.3] Stopped responding on Turn 50

Debug attached

Turn 50 greyed out the Turn Button, then the game stop responding. Moving around is very weird as well. The SOV move forward to a target, then immediately moves back towards where he came from with out any input.

Is this the same as the problem reported in this thread?  It seems like it might be different.

The Debug.err ends with 300+ of these and then ends. Had to end task is all I know. :)

DebugMessage:  ValidateDevice::Reset (over and over) and "Game Over"

Update to the Turn Button going Grey.

Last game, I played until the first instance of the "Grey Plague" hit. I was Zoomed into the Map roughly 3/4. I zoomed out to perhaps 1/4 and noticed peripheral movement, the AI's turn, and then the the "Grey Plague" ended. Upon Zooming back in, in roughly 5-7 more Turns, the "Grey Plague" returned.

"AHAA! I have you now "Grey Plague". I muttered. Promptly Zoomed out and once again AI movement returned the button to me. A few more turns and the "Grey Plague" returned. No worries, I have it in the bag... Zoom out and.. and... arrghhhh!

Game Over. A short wait in the Task Manager, switch the instance from running to not responding. End Now. Thought we had it pegged. Damn.

Next game, same thing transpired, but this time I had only 2 AI's running, had killed one, and assimilated most of the local hero's so AI movement was minimal. Then the "Grey Plague" hit. Zoomed out, nada. Foiled once again. The "Grey Plague" had apparently mutated but then I noticed something strange.

The Left hand Icon list of Town(s), assimilated Hero's and Sov had a new Icon. My wifes. I double tapped her and the Map auto-scrolled out to no-mans land to find her. I then issued her a move order and the "Grey Plague" was once again gone.

Sadly, with her move completed, the very next round found the "Grey Plague" back and no Zoom or attempt to move the Queen would placate the beast. C-A-D to once again watch the seesion go from running to not responding.

I've seen the same behavior, but only once.  I was zoomed way in, got the problem, then zoomed out and saw a couple of trolls and some enemy peasants move, and was ok ... for a few turns.  I've had the problem again numerous times and haven't been able to clear it with zooming.  Too bad, it's very annoying.
