Is that the saved game turn that was saved the turn before? I ran it and could not trigger the error. I ran it for several turns and it auto saved correctly each time.
 
Regarding the visible Russia units, I checked the game optioned and it showed enemy units always visible for player 1 and not visible for player 2. Is it possible you selected the wrong option? I have done that before myself.

I'll check it too and we will talk to Rob and have him look at the save code to make sure we aren't tripping over the same "X.$$$" save file issue some folks are seeing on loading. I think it is one and the same.

Are you getting this message right after you hit the start button? Can you save the game manually? Also, what operating system are you using? Thanks
