Ditto here.  In my case it only seems to happen when i'm moving east
(to the right).  Very odd.  I haven't had time to start tracking it
down.

Also, i only seem to be able to add one PC country.  When i go to add
the second, it says "next available country = 0" (or words to that effect)
and chucks me out.  This is supposed to happen when the player array
fills up, but i've counted the NPC nations and there should still be
some room.  Do the random guys (pirates, barbarians, etc.) take up
space in the same array?  Should i just make the array bigger?
