cariElf, I did have mods installed, BUT since have deleted all mods folders & the my games\elemental folder after copying my maps & units,folders to desktop,and updating to the hotfix, then started elemental again to re-create the folders,copied the maps back in, and my test sov back in to the units folder and have done a few more games on mega map with LOTS of battles and usually crashes at about turn 14, even to the point of three the brigidand archers shooting at the sov and ALL missing, the sov then using the movement limit bug with a dagger against the archers then all of the other enemy.
and here is two links to two turn 14 crashes, both admitedly after a LOT of battles per turn each time the sov was level 8
turn 14 crash 1 with saves,units & maps
turn 14 crash 2 with saves,units & maps
edit
upon further digging in my units folder I found the rangeweaponsfix.xml from 1.08 and deleted it and any NON-unit xml in the units folder, then started ANOTHER new game with the same map game settings which crashed at turn 12
turn 12 crash with all my games\elemental folders
and after deleteing the rangedweaponsfix.xml arrows ARE NOW working.
