I can't end my turn.

[LilHopital]

I have started a campaign as Karl Franz and got the quest "the Reikland Runefang". I have deployed a bright wizard in Nordland like it said. However I have no buildings that can produce a hellstorm rocket battery for the quest. I am at turn 50. I can't move any of my troops. I can build and edit settlements, but I cant move units or heroes. I also can't click the advisor or events tab in the top right corner. I can't end my turn and I have no clue what to do to fix it. Sorry for the terrible description and if you have a suggestion please tell me.


Update: There are some fixes in the responses. Check them out. Personally Dark Side Cookies's fix worked for me, but if it doesn't work for you be sure to look at the rest of the comments.

I have simmilar situation. "End turn" button is grey and so is "advisor" and "event" log. I cant move any of my armies or agents. I didnt do anything to complete that quest, but my Franz just lvled to lvl 15

same issue with me im on turn 73 with the dwarfs and same thing can't hit end turn cant move anyone.

[Btad]

a temp kind of fix is to load your game and then hit end turn then hit end turn again right before it greys out but you cant do anything just have to hit end turn really fast.

i'm running a vampire counts campaign (with 2 mods: smaller size heroes and the one that allowws for all diplomacy) and around at turn 95 the faction warriors of chaos gets eliminated after ending a turn and some odd interface appears like when you press tab, or as if someone had entered diplomacy with you, but no options appear or dialogues, then the only option i have is press esc to exit this menu, but then i can't move any units in the campaign map, nor end turn/save game

Same issue as decribed above. Pumpkin has it right, the chaos gets eliminated by the AI's own stupidity, on very hard difficulty. As the turn starts, you get the 'chaos destroyed' message and taken to the strategic map with 'Empire' selected as if they're going to congratulate you for the AI being rubbish and losing it's Chaos faction. But you can't do anything....

I followed Btad's advice to just end the turn straight away (hammering the 'enter' key to accept all dialogues and start new turn). Mine cycles to the next turn but again, sends me to the strategic map, over 'empire'. By tabbing out of the strat map, I can see the comp thinks it's Empires turn, but I can't select anything or even move the camera....

EDIT: I tried 'reloading' again, but had the option to reload the autosave from the turn I spammed 'enter' through... On reloading, it no longer took me to the strat map and halted the game; enabling me to continue the faceroll of the campaign...

Really disappointed with the AI, dumbed down battle controls, childish campaign mechanics and what appears to be a lack of QA... If you read this CA, please contact me, I'll QA your stuff for free if it goes towards restoring the 'total war' name... The game is a disgrace to the title... Which is a shame because I want to love it...

I have the same problem with my Dwarf campaign, i get to turn 60 when chaos arrives. I can't move armies or heroes but i can open the adviser tab. The end turn is faded gray and i can't save either. I think it maybe a bug in the events; i have that 'cutscene' when chaos comes and maybe it glitches out. It could be a mod thing perhaps? any feedback or advice would be great!

Same issue here.

By turn 74 Chaos Legion got wiped and as Vampire Lord I can't pass turn.
The tab map opens as if it would trigger diplomatic dialogue with another faction, but nothing happens.
I press escape to toggle off the map world (because no other way to disable it than to press esc.) and I am stuck in my turn.

It also select Empire on the world map.

I am wondering if Empire didn't trigger short campaign victory conditions thus locking the game.

This was my conclusion, read above for how to fix it by 'skipping' your turn and ending it. Then, reloading the autosave after it sticks again when it tries to give empire it's winning cut scene.
Worked for me and others.

[LordForgusTheMighty]

Yeah, this is some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Just got to turn 58 with Dwarves... really getting into the game and Chaos arrives! AWESOME! But then I sadly realize that I can't save my game... and find the multiple threads with people experiencing the same thing, and no response whatsoever from the developers. Greeeeaattt....

[Harabec Sinclair]

Same problem. Dwarven campagin - Turn 99.
Previous turn everything works fine (including when I reload to that turn).
At the start of Turn 99 the game flicks immediately to Strategic view and selects the Empire marker. Have to use Esc key to go to campaign map. Unable to Save, bring up advisor, or move armies.

[Sloul Des Tucs]

Press enter as much as you can so that it pass 2 turns instead of just one.
If 2 turns isn't enough, do it for 3 turns, it should fix it (worked in my case).
Downside is, you can't play for 1-2 turns.

[[OPP]SuperCow]

When should I be pressing enter? As soon as I end my turn I spam enter the whole time but by the time it appears to be my turn again the end turn is greyed out and says 'dismiss all advice and related events before ending turn'. The events button has an ! but is greyed out so I can't click it. WTF.

[Sloul Des Tucs]

Spam Enter when you pass your turn, so that it will pass 2 turns in a row.

If you are blocked at turn 74: you need to do that at turn 73, in order to jump to turn 75 or 76.

[Jester]

Same issue here, bugs out on Vampire Counts turn 104. Can't move around my armies, can't attack, can't end turn and can't save the game. Spamming enter to end 2 turns in a row doesn't work, and spamming enter to quickly end the turn before the Campaign Map goes to the Empire also has no avail. CA, please fix this asap..
