[0.17.1] Cannot launch arrival mission: 'Error while applying migration'

In 0.17.1 (and previously in 0.17.0) when I attempt to start the new campaign (I click 'Play' -> 'Start Campaign' -> 'Play', with 'Introduction' selected -> 'Play', with 'Arrival' selected) I get an error message:
Notice

Error while applying migration: Base Mod:
2015-07-02_Factorio_0.12.0.lua

__base__/migrations/2015-07-02_Factorio_0.12.0.lua:18: attempt to index field 'combat-robot-damage-5' (a nil value)
stack trackback:
__base__/migrations/2015-07-02_Factorio_0.12.0.lua:18: in main chunk

Confirm
When I click Confirm it leaves me in the select level menu.

I get the same error message every time when attempting to load the campaign.
I have played a couple of hours in Freeplay and that seems to be working fine.
I can play the transporter belt madness campaign missions.
I have windows 10 and made a fresh install of Factorio on steam and then updated to 0.17.1 using the Latest 0.17.xx Experimental branch.

My factorio-current.log is at https://pastebin.com/5haxxP0F

Please let me know if you have questions

Seems like you have old migrations running,

Can you try doing a clean uninstall and reinstall of the game?
Specifically try to make sure the directory is completely clear before installing again
