So I loaded up a campaign game I had saved before a major battle and find out that my army's full squadrons (or whatever the groups of 8 units are called) have been replaced by single units. They are displayed on the overland map as squadrons, but their stats are clearly those of single units. Upon entering battle, this is confirmed - single units only. Inevitably losing the battle, I'm informed my sovereign is transported to the next city, then the game crashes. All of which

Oh! In that case, can I turn this into a feature request? I'd really like to have full camera control during tactical battles. I absolutely hate having to readjust my camera POV after each ranged attack I hate.

I'm using a Logitech MX518 mouse with the default Windows drivers (version 6.1.7600.16385). Using hardware cursor indeed fixes the issue, but eliminates a lot of feedback that I consider essential for play, so I'd rather not do that.
The 'auto-move camera in battle' option mentioned in the patch notes does not work. The camera still swerves wildly in my game regardless of whether the option is enabled or disabled.
The jittery cursor seems to occur whenever any of the alt, shift or strg keys are held down. Still happens in 1.05, too.
Attempting to load a saved campaign game via the 'Load Game' button in the main menu consistently causes the game to crash. No crash occurs when the game is loaded via the 'Campaign' menu option. Confused the heck out of me until I found that out... :-) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7721929/debug.err
I'm thrilled that the game is out! However, I noticed that the mouse cursor is very jittery while the string key is held, which is extremely annoying when trying to select multiple units.
