Bummed

[Rwearjr]

So, I finished "Happy Times" tonight. However in the middle of making my Campaign transfer, receiving my new boat etc I experience the only CTD I have since installing the game, and TWoS. I tried reloading an earlier save and going through the transfer again only to get the "Transfer failed" message from BDU. While attempting the transfer a second time I hear a horrendous noise while in TC, I look and an airplane is crashed into my sub, and is exploding continuously like popcorn? It was actually kinda funny but a hell of an indication my game may be bugged out after over a month at sea because I had to await the transfer on Mar 7, 41" So, I know to check documentation for alternate progression. My question is will I still receive a new submarine using the alternate method? Would like to keep my promotion point/ renown as well considering we sunk a lot of ships in 6 weeks at sea. Vdr, hope you are out there. Thank you in advance to all!
