I'm getting a CTD on Play Now when selecting a civ or the loading screen stops at initialising on every other setup.
I am using v30 (non-SVN, although the issue occurs with the SVN version as well), on a clean install of v3.19.
Minidump is attached.

Thanks for the bug report. I have to interject on one point - you should not really be using Play Now. Not saying it has anything to do with a known crash bug like this but the options here are numerous and its really not advised to simply take the default selections. Custom Game setup is the best way. Have you had this problem going about it through that method?

I was initially using Custom Game, but when I encountered that the loading screen would stall on initialising regardless of the setup (map size, etc) I tried using Play Now to try and subvert it. Instead, it seems to crash when I try to select a civ.

Interesting. This was reported before but seemed to vanish later. I can't recall what the guy did to fix it...

I wonder if it has to do with the map script you're using... some map scripts have been known to have issues at times.

I was initially using Earth2 in Custom Game, but when I tried Play Now I would randomly select the map.
I'm thinking it has something to do with civs, because it only stalls at Initialising, not map setup, and the Play Now crashes the game at civ selection.

As far as I know Earth2 has not been converted to C2C terrains etc which may be causing the stall. This is a pity since Earth2 is a nice map giving you something almost but not quite like our Earth.

Try a Custom Game on a C2C map and see if that will at least give you a proper game. It may give some error messages that may point to the problem.

I will look into it. Thanks.
