[.85 Bug] Game freezes when Cave Bear tries to attack

the game freezes when a cave bear tries to attack any of my units. The problem may be tied to the Maul ability but I am not sure, because it happens even before the bear lands the first strike.

Had the exact same thing. I uploaded files for SD earlier today on it. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to apply to all cave bears, as I fought mixed cave bear groups without incident, but a specific lone one would hang the game.

It's now been suggested to me that my issue was related to saving and re-loading a game within the same session, as I have a dirty cheater's habit of reloading a game after dying if I enter a quest location to complete it, and find it is populated with lethal bulls*** I couldn't have possibly handled. Or if I accidentally click on the wrong square during a tac battle and blunder my way into a loss because of the interface. Or if my sovereign gets ridiculously killed by a bear cub that mauls me for 5 consecutive hits.  Or if I discover that the creature I had been handling just fine in .77 now spam's Titans Breath turn after turn.  Or if I accidentally forget to queue a building to be built for several turns, or build on the wrong square.  Or if I get a hangnail.

The point is, if you do any of that, you probably shouldn't, or it may corrupt your game in progress until the issue is fixed.
