[18.5 Ground Combat] CTD battling Dreadnought (and other)

Whenever i shoot down a dreadnought, and send my dropship for ground combat, the game crashes to desktop when i click engage.

Tried it with the chinook, shrike and valkyrie, with and without tank, with different armors and weapons (Sentinel, predator, wolf and without armor), no effect.

Also, in late game ground combat, i often encounter ufos (always massive ones) with no aliens onboard, i can move my troops in first round, then i instantly win.

I can confirm this too. Anytime I shoot down a dreadnought and try to send troops to the crash site, I get a crash after the ground combat loading screen.

The Dreadnoughts are being in the process of being removed, so its not something to worry about too much.

Ahh. I kept trying to get one of those because I thought it had something I need to unlock the final mission. I must be missing something else.

Good to know.

This is my bad, I did a terrible job of removing the Dreadnought from the game. I've now fixed this in the dev version so it'll no longer appear at all.
