Hey there, I'm new to the forums and I was wondering if anyone could help me with the probelm I'm having, I have just installed dominions and patched it and for some reason after I patched it it stopped working, when-ever I end a turn it either stops on 'Horrors' or on the first or second round of a battle can somebody please help? the game works fine unpatched and I'm running it on windows.

Is this a previous game that stops?
Does it happen if you start a new game?

And just for general info to others who might be lurking here saying "yeah that happened to me", patches tend to catch wrong serial codes so sometimes making sure that your key is the one that is in your manual is a good idea.

Try uninstalling/reinstalling+repatching. Maybe redowndoad the patch, it may have been corrupted also...

okay it happens with both stared games and loaded games, and I've tryed reinstalled repatching re downloading the patch, and everything else I could think of! I'm thinking somthing on my computer must be corrupting it, though if anyone else is having this problem or thinks they can help please post

Not sure what could be causing this, make sure to go through Shrapnel support, though.

System type/speed/OS/Memory would be helpful, though.

Does the game work without installing the patch?

If the game works fine without installing the patch then it could be an illegal copy of the game according to the developers.

Also you could try clean booting your system when you play to determine if there's another application/service in the background causing a conflict with the game.
