When ever I send a leader to a city and hit the build army button the game crashes to the desktop. Any help?

Any other info? Can you tell us the game version (ie; plain civ, play the world, or conquests), patch version, computer specs perhaps?

You could try doing it again...may be a spur of the moment type thing, or has this happened before?

Have you any modded files? One guess would be that the army.ini file is missing, or that the pediaicons.txt file is missing the army.

Have a look in your cvi3\art\units\ folder and make sure you have 4 folders for armies (ARMY ANCIENT TIMES; ARMY MODERN TIMES etc).

Well, it works fine for me.

I've created an army, and uploaded the save here. (http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads8/army.SAV)

If it crashes when you try to load it, I'd say that you should try a reinstall and then patch to 1.22f :)
