Hi Granto,

Currently I'm playing just one campaign, with Procopius faction in 365 campaign, 6tpy, with the simple script (not the full one). The faction looks very stable, I have employed a wide array of different roman units with no problems. I have also fought numerous battles against quadi, alamanni, berbers, imperium valens and sassanids, and I had no unit related ctds. only problem I'm having now is an almost systematic pre battle ctd every second battle, but in the first 60 turns I was playing at least three battles per session without any ctd. I'm in year 398 now (about 200 turns), and I'm quite convinced that mine is a memory problem, maybe due to the sassanids having become a massive monster to manage for the A.I., or whatever, so maybe it's only an issue with my computer.

I have a much deeper experience with SAI3.0 (the previous version), and I fondly remember my frankish campaign, extremely stable, where I had been able to play at least five consecutive battles without ctds (only got the ctd after the sixth battle), that is a great performance for my pc (actually the best performance ever for me, with the ''big'' mods I have played, EB, RSII and IB:SAI). Also the frankish units were very stable. So I would suggest you to give a try to the Franks; I'm going to play them as well, sooner or later.

I would also suggest you to check the recent posts on the ctd & bug thread, as Julianus Heraclius has recently released some small fixes for units.
