Well, my wife and I got our NIC-4 turns yesterday, which had been
pretty massively screwed up (a couple of empty pop segs vanished,
resulting in no transfered population, which resulted in no new
soldier-scouts, which basically wasted a kingdom turn; a few other
problems, but this was the big one).  When Letitia called, Kevin
hemmed and hawed, and then admitted that they'd had a crash between
our two turns (but they thought they'd fixed everything!).

Anyway, I don't know if this was limited to NIC-4 or included others (all?)
of their games, but if you lost something new and important between your
previous turn and the most recent one, this is a likely culprit.  Anyway,
you might give them a call.

Mike
