Hi, my first post.....
I just bought the game, installed it, and upgraded to 1.01. I played around with it for an hour or so.
There are MANY things to like about the game. Even though I prefer detailed graphics, these kinda grow on you. lol
Anyway, the games runs nicely on my Windows 7 system.
I'm not going to go into a lot of thoughts as many of them have been already posted, so just a couple.
To me the interface is so uncluttered that it unfortunately helps raise the frustration level of finding the correct button. I would rathwer see a more expanded permanent interface, then search left and right for things. With today's resolution, there is enough room.
If there is a single square of water, the game engine still provides it with ocean waves, maybe that could be changed to a pond or land ungulation? Just an aesthetic thing.
Anyway the main reason for posting. The game just stopped/crashed after I hit end of turn:

Take care and now I understand the amazing potential of his marvelous game (better, if it stops crashing lol)\, and this passionate community.
Addendum- The game has crashed 3 times after loading an autosave. Roughly 50 game turns deeper into the game each time. .
