The Dread Lords mega event is bugged - on occasion, they will show up with a nonexistent ship orbiting their planet (instead of a scout like they're supposed to) which triggers a CTD when interacted with in any way, including when the Dread Lords take their first turn. It's been reported for a while, but no fix so far.

Your best move would be to go back to a save from before the event and try things again - it's random, so they most likely will not show up on a second go-through and it might not cause a crash if they do.

Are you playing TA? I've never had a problem in DA (Metaverse games) with this Dread Lords megaevent bug which I have seen discussed in other threads.

It's limited to TA as far as I know. My understanding is that they tried to beef up the event a little for the expansion (and succeeded - the DL are much quicker to build up when the event doesn't crash), but created this bug in the process.
