If you accidentally or purposefully ram someone in a battle, DO NOT give Daud when he asks, the dismissive reply that basically says “it’s war” it will auto end your campaign! This just happened to me, after maybe 7 RL hours in the game after taking last save point, and it kicked me all the way back to that point. There should of been some warning for this, it is extraordinarily frustrating. What makes it worse is that this save point is possibly the worst imaginable place, and took me many hours to extricate myself from. I took a check point, but there was a aircraft carrier group there which did lots of damage to my lightning force. To then top it off on the way my fleet made it 100miles from the city and then I had to ditch them to get sevastapol there. Immediately after taking it, a trader appears and radios my position in, and to the city north of me and the south there are a SG! This took me hours of work to extricate myself from last time, so I’m not happy about being stuck here again!
