<t> It's not uncommon on my box! I have yet to play more than 20 turns without it happening. I'll try it again now and see if your sugestion on the windows key works. I have my doubts as alt tab usually doesn't, nor does ctrl alt del but I'll let you know the result. Otherwise it seems a good game ...

Good stuff - the issue still occurs. Here is a zipped folder from the autosave of a locked game.

Game locks up seriously - no alt tab, no task manager - once rebooted machine. Has occurred after beating poland, invading denmark, beating france (vichy) playing german - dxdialog and consoleOut attached in zip.

XP SP2
