[CRASH] [1.1] Saving game after awarding Head of Amhah to town

Solved after playing first scenario/campgain?

Small Random Map with Custom Faction/Hero on Easy difficulty with two other factions:

Was fighting Amhah and his army. After winning I got the items Sword of Wrath and Head of Amhah and was able to choose the town the head should be awarded to. Everything except saving works alright but clicking save or waiting for autosave results in a crash to desktop (tried 10 times with different approaches, crashes every time).

Everything about my machine should be in the debug.err (link provided) but I can't upload any big files (save/debug zip) as I don't have any accounts to do that. Could send by email if requested.

 

Edit: Custom Faction, Custom Hero and Save were created after installing patch 1.1 (deleted everything from before) and I did verify game files with steam.

It seems to work ok for the scenario/campaign (played the first map and there were no crashes after obtaining the head). I will try if the problem manifests itself if I give the head to my capitol (was giving it to the town with most grain).

 

Edit: It seems to work fine now...also if I award the head to another city...don't know what changed. These are the only things I did:

- Played the first scenario (till the end)

- Loaded the old save, did the fight with Amhah, awarded head to capital -> worked (used a new save!)

- Loaded the old save, did the fight with Amhah, awarded head to the same city it crashed before -> worked (another new save)

- Saved again on old save -> worked.......???

Does the campaign change something in the game config so you have to start the campaign before the head of amhah works flawlessly?
