There were some instances which resulted in a hard crash, and one which resulted in a freeze, but these were rare and couldn't be reliably replicated. How to Replicate:There were numerous instances in which the overlay seemed to occur, but the most reliable to cause it was scrolling all the way to the right side of the map, scrolling to the top, all the way to the left, and then down the left side of the map, where the overlay would shortly appear. Zooming in and out and scrolling to the top of the map also seemed to cause it fairly regularly.

Not saying it does not happen, your report and Andys confirmation says it does
However.....
I followed the "How to Replicate" instructions to the letter and scrolled all the way to the right side of the map, then all the way to the top, then all the way to the left, and then down the left side of the map then I repeated that test at different zoom levels then repeated it with the same right-top- left-down pattern with a new zoom level at each change in direction
Works perfectly for me, no crash not even a blip and I followed what Andy did "...... loaded it as a custom map in the game scenario editor and tried to scroll, then got the black screen as described."
You said ......."this bug was repeatable with other nations and time periods as well)" I was using what is my default ATM and that is Ukraine Vs Russian May 2022 so I switch to your example of Iraq (Human Players), India (AI) June, 1987
Worked perfectly and I tried it with the mini-map normal and expanded and with the Hex grid on and off
Then I tried the same pattern in reverse ... no problem at all
SO...... there is a problem for some. What I would like is for others to try the same How to Replicate and report their results
Another test for you and Andy------------- try turning off map text ( Press M )
