[Crash][0.98] - Game hangs mysteriously
Haven't had the game hang up on me before, but here goes:

Was able to Alt-Tab out of it to close it.

For crashes especially, you want to dropbox the dump file archive. You can get this from a hidden folder as described in the sticky post on reporting bugs. Here's the relevant info from that sticky:
For crash reports in particular, the most helpful file you can provide is a memory dump that the game will generate when a crash occurs. If you're running Windows XP, there will be a zip file with the memory dump located in Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic. If you're running Windows Vista or 7, the zip file will be located at ProgramData\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic instead.
The file will look similar to this:
Elemental0_98-2010-07-29T23-47-45-488.zip
It contains the debug.err already, as well as a dump of the game state that the devs can use to find the problem in their code.
Like I said, it 'hangs mysteriously' - there was no dump file for this, hence only the debug.err.
