we have a similar situation in a test game running on the seiv.pbw.cc (Admiral's PBW server) where the game is hanging on a massive fighter battle we set up just for this occasion.

I have to commend the Admiral here, and put out this plug for the SEIV PBW service (runs great, no complaints, lots of Users).. here is the way we have to work arround it on the server:

the server will let you know that the turn has crashed, the designated host of the game is then able to either work it out on his own on his own PC and re-upload a manual turn file, or the offending players can be instructed to back-off so that the turn can be reprocessed. if all else fails, the PBW administrators are always willing to help people troubleshoot and work out any problems.

so I am happy to say that PBW handles this, and hopefully when the new Version comes out, there will be less hangs to deal with.
