Once the errors started I continued to hit them once a second (which is what one would expect in the DoPerSecond Logic

I find it a bit confusing that AISpecialForces_Normal.cs involves calling code in HunterFleet_Normal.cs. I feel like the hierarchy from the files you have suggests that abstract classes go in HunterFleet.cs or AISpecialForces.cs, which are then implemented in AISpecialForces_XXXXX or HunterFleet_YYYY.cs. So it seems weird to have the abstract IndependentAIFleetSubType class defined in HunterFleet_Normal.cs.

My critique of your code organization aside, if the answer to this isn't immediately obvious I'll try to recreate the problem with more logging later.

I'm very suspicious of the line
                    GameEntity entityToSpawnAt = this.unitsThatCanSpawnStandalones.PickRandomItemAndReplace( Context.QualityRandom );
                    GameEntity newEntity = GameEntity.CreateNew( entityToSpawnAt.Planet.GetPlanetFactionForFaction( faction ), typeToBuy, entityToSpawnAt.WorldLocation, Context );

I believe the issue is that after quitting and starting a new game sometimes entityToSpawnAt has a null Planet. If you stick the following debugging code in

                    ArcenDebugging.ArcenDebugLogSingleLine("Hunter budget: find entity to spawn at", Verbosity.DoNotShow );
                    GameEntity entityToSpawnAt = this.unitsThatCanSpawnStandalones.PickRandomItemAndReplace( Context.QualityRandom );
                    if(entityToSpawnAt == null)
                        ArcenDebugging.ArcenDebugLogSingleLine("BUG: hunterCode there's no unit that can spawn standalone", Verbosity.DoNotShow );
                    ArcenDebugging.ArcenDebugLogSingleLine("Hunter budget: call createNew", Verbosity.DoNotShow );
                    if(entityToSpawnAt.Planet == null)
                    {
                        ArcenDebugging.ArcenDebugLogSingleLine("Bug one", Verbosity.DoNotShow );
                        break;
                    }
                    if(entityToSpawnAt.Planet.GetPlanetFactionForFaction( faction ) == null)
                        ArcenDebugging.ArcenDebugLogSingleLine("Bug two", Verbosity.DoNotShow );
                    if(entityToSpawnAt.WorldLocation == null)
                        ArcenDebugging.ArcenDebugLogSingleLine("Bug three", Verbosity.DoNotShow );
                    GameEntity newEntity = GameEntity.CreateNew( entityToSpawnAt.Planet.GetPlanetFactionForFaction( faction ), typeToBuy, entityToSpawnAt.WorldLocation, Context );
                    if(newEntity == null)
                        ArcenDebugging.ArcenDebugLogSingleLine("BUG: hunterCode could not actually create new entity", Verbosity.DoNotShow );
                    ArcenDebugging.ArcenDebugLogSingleLine("Entity created", Verbosity.DoNotShow );

you'll eventually observe some error messages

I'm pretty sure this got fixed last release. I seem to recall Keith changing a bunch of that code
