Similar issue, hangs on mission load in early game. Tried restarting and loading earlier save, issue shows up on same mission, "recover argo".

*Known Issues with 1.0.1:*
If you are fielding a Shadow Hawk with the Valhalla paint job, all combat missions will fail to load. This includes loading combat save games as well as dropping from your Dropship. To work around the issue in Skirmish, remove the Valhalla Shadow Hawk variant from your lance. To work around the issue in Campaign, change the Shadow Hawk paint job to one of the base options. We will fix this asap (v1.0.2)

And it should be fixed in the new 1.0.2 beta.

Adding a solution for anyone that comes across this in the future. I had a support ticket open with Paradox. We went through quite a list of troubleshooting steps. After nothing worked they had me completely remove and then reinstall the graphics card drivers. The game runs now, however one of the troubleshooting steps was to remove a file that displayed the cut scenes... I now no longer see those

The AV DLL? That shouldn't be necessary to remove any more ... ?

I've hit a point in two different campaigns where the Panzyer story mission won't load. I get to the point where it's says preparing for combat, but the mission stays there.
