Turn leader scene quality down to medium.
The DX11 crash only happens when the leader scenes are on high. Mine used to crash all the time, but after I did that it works.
wow thank you! it loads now. However crashes after one turn... doh.
You have your game patched to the latest version with the latest GFX drivers and DX installed?
Does it work fine in DX9 mode?
The current problem that just about everyone gets in Civ V is memory leak issues with leader scenes on high quality. Everything else should be working.
yeh same as mine i think.
Try leader scenes on lowest quality then in DX11. Napoleons screen was still crashing for me on Medium.
I'll turn it back to medium after and never have Napoleon in any of my games again

Am I the only one who doesn't much care for animated leader screens and would glady go back to a Civ IV style leaderhead thing?
It would improve speed without much detriment to the gameplay imo, since its not like the animated screens add much to you turn to turn business

Civ3 style would work for me. Yes CivV they are animated, but they dont DO much anyway, and i mostly skip through them as fast as possible...
I thoroughly enjoy playing Civ V, even if the AI is as dumb as a bag of spanners. But I have increased the minimum distance that each city can be built from each other. This alone has made playing the game a bit more pleasurable. Also by doing that the larger maps have fewer, but more developed, cities meaning it doesn't slow down quite as much.
I do wish that the game didn't have as much unit "dancing" going on - where on each turn many AI units move one hex up and then on the next turn back to where they were. They should remain fortified and thus cut down the time between turns. Also watching a scout crouching for 50 turns as a barb ship fires a few arrows at it is painful to experience, why the scout can't move I don't know.
Still it is a fun game to play

Inca + Western North America + Terraces + a load of super slingers = fun fun fun fun!

3 range, 2 shots per turn, indirect fire so the 3 tile range is never blocked, and march so they heal while shooting. Its rather odd that I only got 2 iron out of such a huge mountain range though, but two Swordsmen are all I need to cover my ranged units.
Its funny when they get melee attacked, they just magically pop back a couple of tiles and fire down on the attackers the next turn
The ranged unit upgrade path to riflemen makes me very very sad though

Everything is on max except leader scenes. Performance is fine throughout the game on huge maps.
I have a 4.2 Ghz I7 920, 12 Gb ram, and SLI GTX 560s though, and am running the game off Raid 0 Sammy F3s.
