Playing pretty well this morning on Intel 64bit machine. Got to day 10 (after defeating Goblin camp), then game crashed.

Tried to load most recent save game and the loading bar never went past half - then Assersion Failed.

Noticed while game was froze that there are THREE stonehearth.exes running in task manager. I only ran the game once, so it’s not multiple instances. Every time I ran the game, it shows up 3 times. Maybe this is intentional, who knows.

If it helps, I can upload the bunged up save game. (dev build 2310 x 64)
