First, Im running Civ 5 on Windows XP 32-bits, ATI Radeon HD, 5700, 4 gigs ram, dx 9c, core 2 quad 2.4.
Bug 1:
Nuking in the following situation gets me an automatic crash (see spoilered image). I can use both types of nukes on cities and around the map, but it seems that when I nuke those 10 units off the map, the game cant cope and it crashes. I dont know if its due to one of these particular units, or if its the sheer number. I also tried doing the same nuking in strategic mode, to see if the graphics were causing the problem, and it also crashed. It actually crashed much faster in strategic mode. I clicked to send the nuke and BAM right away, black screen and windows error sends me back to desktop. Here is what the even viewer said:
The save is attached to this thread. The submarine is in place with its nuke on board, just try shooting at the same unit if you want...

Bug number 2:
The next bug is more of an annoyance. You know how, when you have planes or missiles in cities, they show as a number over the city banner? Well, the missiles and planes work under the same principle when you put them on boats or submarines. In the following screenshot, I was carrying guided missiles in a nuclear submarine. Whenever I clicked on the number above the submarines icon to interact with the guided missiles that were on board, the number became permanent on the map. In the screenshot below, I actually have used the missiles on poor Hiawatha, yet I can still interact with the previous locations of where the missile-carrying submarine was and look at this tab Note that I could not use the dead missiles, but yeah, these numbers were hanging around on the ocean for each time I tried to interact with the missiles, until I reloaded my game. See image:

Other quibbles:
3) The Sydney Opera House can only be built on a coastal city, yet I don't think the Civilopedia or the manual says so.
4) I think the advanced ballistics quote that is read is not the same as the one that is written.
5) When in your economic viewer, you see a list of your cities. You can sort them in various orders simply by clicking on the "gold" icon for gold, or the "hammer" icon for production. That way it's easy to find your most productive cities in terms of gold, hammers, citizens and whatnot... HOWEVER, when I try to sort them in order of Beakers, it doesn't seem to work. It sorts them in order of... I don't know what, but certainly not beakers.
6) So, Hiawatha invaded Gandhi and took Delhi. Eventually I declared war on Hiawatha and took Delhi for myself. It asked me if I wanted to liberate it and return it to the now obliterated (eliminated, off the map) Gandhi. I said no, I kept it as a puppet city for a while. Eventually, I wanted to return it to Gandhi, but I couldnt, it was still a puppet state. I could annex it or leave it as a puppet. Maybe thats the way it is intended but it seems a little weird. I can understand that once youve annexed the city, liberating it is a little iffy, although even then Id be glad if the option was there. But not being able to do it when its simply a puppet Hmm
