Though I am playing with mods built through the editor, I am finding that it crashes when I go to build a city - random. If I go back to the previous turn and try to replay, same issue every time. If I do something else and come back later, it doesn't crash. This mostly happens when I have conquered a city and are razing/installing new governor.
 
You know what I'm gonna ask... :)

Do you have a gamesave? The mod you made? It's hard to tell what's wrong when the only clue is "random crashes". What are the steps you take before the crash? What are your preferences? (i.e., ask for orders after construction, always build the same unit, governors on/off etc.). Also, the does crash say anything? Missing file? Blank screen? Crash to desktop with/without a message?
 
When it crashes, the screen goes completely black and I end up at the Windows Standard Desktop. I do have the gamesave, but I don't think it would work if you looked at it, since I have hundreds of custom units and more than 80 custom resources. I would need to give you over 300 mgs of files. Though, I would love to be incorrect, and that the saved game could still be viewed.

C3C - no patch
Governors are on
No special build queue orders
Conquests only victory option
Happens with various different preference changes

The steps are, either:

1 - Conquer a city and select either raze city or install governor option

or

2 - Build new city

Then boom, it goes black.
 
I think the odds are pretty high that something in your mod is causing the problem. Try creating the same situation in a non-modded game and see if it happens. If not, work on your mods. If it still crashes in the unmodded game, check back here again with a gamesave.
