The game isn't crap. Please post a debug.err, since most of us don't get this problem. That leads to the logical conclusion that if anything is crap, it's your comp.

So make with the debug please, so we can see what's happening.

Yes, I get alot of crashes too about mid to late game. I just increase the frequency of autosavesand you the crash as a hint it's time to eat or go to bed.

yes. sadly, its my personal clock as well... hehehe. but yea, i used to get crashes allll the time until i
a)cleaned the cobwebs in my comp (threw large things away that were un-needed)
b) upgraded to the newest patch
c)turned off autosave (though it can be helpful on uber-computers, dumb old ones like mine an prolly yours, its torture on memory)
d) (sadly) avoiding a map larger then "large" and no more than 5 or 6 races

give one or all or none of these a try if you wish, worked pretty dern good fer me

Hi Amon85, yes that is indeed a crap bug . I would suggest that you follow the instructions in the sticky "Problem IN-GAME?". It asks for a few details and the debug.err which you can find in the game directory. Basically its made automatically so after a crash search for debug.err.
