This includes vanilla mods, like melee on all guns and such.

Interesting!
So, if I understood correctly, you preferred the "hand-to-hand combat" option (punch) and you don't want to activate (make) the "melee with a weapon" options?

It works fine for me... try a fresh install from scratch... maybe something is conflicting if you just upgraded by copying a new version over the old one.

I made the mistake of taking your folders (common and standard to your latest OXCE+) then adding the "user" folder. By taking all the folders from the archive TWoTS 2.13, it works!
Sorry !

I'm out of luck!
The game starts correctly but ... Unable to activate the Mod... because this error appears immediately :
[12-06-2018_22-32-36]   [WARN]   disabling mod with invalid ruleset: TWoTS
[12-06-2018_22-32-36]   [ERROR]   failed to load 'The world of (terrifying) silence'; mod disabled for next startup

I'm not sure if you are able, but I think surrendered enemies should really not punch.... honestly I've wondered if enemies could be made to take massive stun as a possible panic effect, to simulate them basically laying on the ground with their hands behind their head, maybe with a white flag symbol, and maybe allowed to join the battle if out of XCOM sight, but in the sight of another cultist...would make captures a little more manageable, without idiots running everywhere causing reaction fire.

You still have the option "STR_CUT_THROAT:" - the "coup de grâce" !
This option is very practical!     
Especially if they're of little interest.

Try searching for this in your save and replace "7" with something lower, e.g. 6.

With the value 6 everything seems to have returned correct!
Thank you very much !

Most likely an issue with one of the mods.
If you post a save just before the crash, I may be able to help; or at least explain what's wrong.

It seems the error came from UFO-415.
Sectoid terror ship - Central Asia.
When he tries to land between Ankara/Bagdad/Teheran!

Perhaps the following data:
  - race: STR_SECTOID
    nextUfoCounter: 0
    spawnCountdown: 180
    type: STR_ALIEN_TERROR
    nextWave: 3
    liveUfos: 0
    uniqueID: 122
    missionSiteZone: 7
    region: STR_CENTRAL_ASIA


Save in attachments !
Tks !

[Edit] I've disabled all Mods. But I have the same problem!

Hello,
I hope I'm not in the wrong place to post this problem! 
Just a quick question!
You don't have to involve Delta Force!
In my OXCE+ (version 19/05) I have this crash!

[08-06-2018_17-35-43]   [FATAL]   A fatal error has occurred: vector::_M_range_check: __n (which is 7) >= this->size() (which is 7)
[08-06-2018_17-35-43]   [FATAL]   Unfortunately, no stack trace information is available
[08-06-2018_17-35-59]   [FATAL]   OpenXcom has crashed: vector::_M_range_check: __n (which is 7) >= this->size() (which is 7)
Extra information has been saved to openxcom.log.
If this error was unexpected, please report it to the developers.

Note: The save is old. In this game I'm almost at the end. I can do the Cydonia mission whenever I want! I use a lot of Mods.
Maybe all this explains it.

True !

Most likely your language is set as en-GB instead of en-US.

@ Rich
In my case my game is set to be in French. So it's not possible for me to set it to "en-US"!
But it's easy to fix this problem! 
In the "\common\Language\OXCE" folder, open (with the Windows notepad) the file of your language (fr.yml for me).
At the end of the file add or modify the lines to have :
  STR_DAMAGE_10: "EMP"
  STR_DAMAGE_11: "ELECTRIC"
  STR_DAMAGE_12: "PSI"
  STR_DAMAGE_13: "WARP"
  STR_DAMAGE_14: "E-115"
  STR_DAMAGE_15: "15"
  STR_DAMAGE_16: "16"
  STR_DAMAGE_17: "17"
  STR_DAMAGE_18: "18"
  STR_DAMAGE_19: "19"

It works great in my game! 

Processing prisoners means processing prisoners: checks, interrogation, cataloguing their belongings and sending them off to an appropriate institution. But yes, sometimes it means you get to keep some of their stuff.

Ah! I get it!
Thanks !

I think I said it... I'm French and I don't understand English. I communicate through an online translator. Sorry !
I have problems understanding sentences :
  STR_EXALT_ENFORCER_ARMOR_ADAPTATION: "EXALT Enforcer Processing"
  STR_SYNDICATE_AGENT_ARMOR_ADAPTATION: "Syndicate Agent Processing"
  STR_POSTAL0_ARMOR_ADAPTATION: "Homicidal Maniac Processing"
  STR_POSTAL1_ARMOR_ADAPTATION: "Crazed Soldier Processing"
  STR_POSTAL2_ARMOR_ADAPTATION: "Insane Vigilante Processing"

The translation is not very consistent. In a few simple words can you tell me what you mean by "processing".
It seems the prisoners are turning into armor? 
Thanks !

Thank you very much !

But one little question please !
I'm surprised that autopsies of "spitter" and "skeletoid" have the same sentence ! 
Normal ?

Since 1994 I play the same way! 
I'm not bored since these games (UFO/TFTD/Apoc) are my favorite and I play them regularly (now with OXCE+ and XFiles versions) ! 
And it's not at my age that I'm gonna change tactics!

That's kind of strange - i personally never had a problem finishing the missions in less turns. Much less. Sure there's not something wrong with the way your're approaching the mission?

I admit to advancing my soldiers with great caution (for all missions)!
My average for small missions is 15 turns!
The result is that after 100 missions I have on average 10 killed maximum.
