Weird set of crashes (at least to me) 6.2+

B6.2+  med map, new game everything default

 

Started a new game and got all the way to turn 142 before a crash, that’s a lot of hours. Here is where it gets weird: between turn 143 and 149, the game crashed no less than 8 times.   I was saving every turn and reloading after crashing.  Sometimes it died right as the game video came up after a load, others while scrolling map, clicking on something, or the always popular WAIT for AI. Nothing new was running , nothing different taking place in the game, no noticeable  trigger in the game (e.g. like invasion) ,  I would just go to do something , click and bam .. crash.    Even stranger yet (at least to me) , from turn 150-207 (won game) I only had one additional crash.  Ignoring the mid game set, a crash rate of less than 1%/turn is pretty damn respectable in a game this complex.  But when you get crash after crash in a row, well that’s frustration

 

Anyway, bundling up the whole set of dumps and will submit ticket
