So, I was in the middle of the Bismarck Sea battle, Jan 1944, and the air attack has taken out most of the surface ships. I'm closing on a surviving aviator and I'm detected by escorts. I go deep and get depth charged but the air attack continues above me driving the escorts away and I'm escaping. My intention is to surface and return for the aviator after the escorts get sunk or depart.
Everything is going well and then, CTD.
I restart the computer and then load my save game, start playing and almost immediately, CTD.
I then make sure all my video drivers are up to date, etc. tried again and still almost immediately, CTD.
Whatever happened in the original CTD seems to have made the FOTRSU7.1 into mod soup so I may have to do a clean install using CMS and try again.
I'm reporting this as a heads up. I'm not sure what caused the original CTD but I was mouse clicking when it happened.
I'll report back again after I test some other save games before I start over with a fresh install of FOTRSU7.1

[EDIT 1]
Previous save. Played for quite some time, then, mouse click on All Crew To Battle Stations CTD.
It could've been any mouse click that caused CTD.
I'm going to reinstall FOTRSU from a clean install and try again from new career.
This is still very much fun. I'm sure that over time, we'll get the CTD issue behind us.
