Galciv Crash - not caught by SmartException

from Stardock Forums
I don't know what caused it but it Galciv is crashing with without SmartException picking it up. I get a Visual C++ popup window that states:

Damage after normal block #39141 at 0x14A8080

A symptom of the problem is that I had a rather hefty survey ship 130+ hitpoints, 100+ in both attack and defense and was a level 5 well on the way to level 6 ship and when I restore from the save that I made just before the crash the values for the survey ship are set back to 100 odd HP, double digit attack and defense values and experience level 0.

I have a saved game if someone at Stardock would like it.

This is new one on me.
Cheers

As far as the change in the ship's stats goes, that appears to be normal. The game keeps track of a ship's experience when saving, but doesn't correctly initialize it's level when loading.

Each ship that specific ship destroys will get it a full level until it's back up to its proper level.

I seem recall something about this being mentioned a while ago, but I'm not certain about that.
