This is actually the first time I played BTS. I started a normal game (epic) no mods or scenarios, and after many hours of playing I now get this crash at the end of the turn.
I can vary the exact turn of the crash by loading the auto save and doing a few different things, but it eventually crashes after 4-5 turns.
I also tried to install the patch 3.02, but it didn't make any difference.

To reproduce:
1. Load savegame
View attachment Augustus Caesar AD-1954-July.CivBeyondSwordSave

2. Press Enter to end turn

3. You should get a crash to desktop almost immediately

Edit: I managed to work around this problem by giving the "Industrialism" Tech to Zara Yacob. Seems like he would finish this tech in the next turn, and somehow that causes the crash. Pretty odd, and I was amazed when I could reproduce it. Now I will try if the crash occurs again some turns later...
 
I have had 2 crashes to desktop at the end of a turn, both times it was right after I declared war. Both crashes occurred in the mid/late game. I am not sure if this is the same bug that has been confirmed. I have already installed the patch 3.02.
 
Interestingly, when I (playing as Fredrick) declared war on Wang Kon, but didn't capture any of his cities, there was no crash at the end of the turn. The following turn, I captured one of his cities, and the game crashed after ending that turn. Perhaps the bug only occurs when capturing an enemy city on the first turn of war.
 
Update: I'm pretty sure this bug has been confirmed. It's the second one from the top in the "Consolidated Bug Reports" list, under "Game Performance Bugs"
