-Zooming out so only strategic symbols remain, seems to make it crash less often
From the research I did (a long time ago now) the game appeared to be accessing
textures that had recently been deallocated by Wine. So, I think that the reference count somewhere is not being applied correctly and some textures are getting freed too quickly. From watching the main menu pause for a moment when you move your mouse over the buttons I would guess that Wine is not handling pre-loading textures and holding on to them until the game indicates they are no-longer needed anywhere.
