Game freezes in Saint campaign just after a special event in the funny region

[unkempt silo]

The game freezes just after a second or two when the || Iterators disappear from the AI room in Rubicon ||.
I do have a few mods enabled but there's only one that's relevant to || Rubicon || and that being Stygian Shuffle, which is only just a threat theme mod

i'll fetch mod list in a second
