My favorite part is near the beginning when the one army comes running out.  Some commander saw all those armies coming and said "screw this"!

Brids, do you by chance have an nVidia CPU with (very) outdated drivers?  Some very old drivers--which as Stormcrow discovered are presented as the latest if you look for them using a certain less-beaten path through nVidia's website--have some pretty serious bugs relating to open type fonts.

This is the only known issue, and it's pretty obscure.  The problem was actually fixed in newer drivers some time before browsers even started supporting the new font standard.

 Nope, I've got an Intel Core i5. It only happens once, so after the first lock up, if I close the tab and reopen it it's fine. Seems to still be fine even if I close the browser so it must only happen again after restart. =\

Erm, I meant to say GPU.  There's no such thing as an nVidia CPU.  It sounds very much like the font issue, and isn't something any site should be able to do to a healthy computer, even an intentionally malicious one.  If it doesn't recur even after a browser restart, that seals even greater certainty that the site and even the browser itself are not at fault.  All that remain to blame are video drivers.

A perfunctory Google search reveals that ATi suffered from this problem as well, less severely but for a longer time.  (nVidia's problem was most commonly a complete system crash.)

I'd guess it's the graphic card then, as I've got an ATI...Annoying that a font can cause so many problems...

Well it doesn't have to.  Just update your video drivers.
