This just happened to me too.  I tried to reclaim a site that I'd abandoned, set everything up, hit 'e' --> crash!  Tried twice, crashed both times.  In addition, it also had the bug where there were far too many dwarves to reclaim (~40?) for a site that I'd abandoned with only 7.  Guess I'll have to wait until the crashing problem is fixed.  *sigh*

Mine crashed too. Did you guys update 0.27.169.32a to 0.27.169.33a? I did perhaps that is the answer?

No.  I *just* abandoned a new fortress under a fresh unzip of 33a and it crashed on Play Now!

My reclaim crash happened in a new world generated in 33a.  Clean install, new folder, etc.

I'm having this problem too.  Very disappointing, considering I built my last fortress with the intention of making it fun to revisit as an adventurer.

Bumping this to see if (more) others are having the problem.

A site I placed in the mountains happened to include a cave undiscovered on the world map. This cave also had a resident hydra, who eventually decided to pay my fortress a rather bloody visit.

When loading up the fortress in Adventurer mode, I experienced occasional, but reproducible crashes when attempting to reach the ruined site; when I attempted to reclaim the site, DF crashed on loading the map.

I'm not sure if it's the hydra, the cave full of creatures, or the two magma pipes that's doing it, but it's unfortunate and annoying. I want to get back at that ruddy Hydra for what he did to my beautiful fortress.

Thanks.  That's the same thing we've been experiencing.  Based on my experience with this crash, I was not able to reach my old fortress sites - either on foot or via the overland.

Just tried a reclaim myself. Suprisingly everything (well allmost, digging designation was ignored) worked for a while. That is until my marksdvarves killed last ratman of the bunch wandering around by the entrance. Crash happened at the very moment last of the ratmen died.

I have this problem.

The interesting thing was that when I first found the area, I did a "trial abandon + reclaim" to verify that it would work...

Then, later, after I regenerated the world from the SEED to start fresh and had the initial 7 dwarves build up a bit before the abandon + reclaim, I get it to happen consistently.

Furthermore, this same game crashes when I try to trade a steel mace to dwarven traders that was dropped by a previous dwarven trader who succumbed to the elements.

I don't know where to host files, but I could put the save up if I knew of a place.

I'm also having this problem but inconsistently.  I can't reclaim several of my sites but there are a few that I can.  I've noticed that if its more then 7 dwarves being sent to reclaim it will crash.  Also this may be related but the one time I could reclaim the original 7 were still hanging about as friendlies much as the humans do when you take over one of their towns.
