You'll notice that someone on this (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=16878) page gets the same exception as me, but there is no resolution. Warlords doesn't crash for me, and the only native dlls I have are msxml3 and d3dx9_36. I also run it in a virtual desktop; you might try that, if you haven't. However, the version of Warlords I have is from Civ IV Complete, which had DRM removed. People using the older, DRM'd versions seem to have more problems.
