Upgrade 3850 Catalyst - Wont boot

I tried to upgrade a Catalyst 3850 stack of 2 switches from 03.02.03.SE to 16.09.06 & now the switch won't boot.

It's in a remote site so I'll need local hands, the switch was in install mode so I ran the command -

software install file flash:cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.09.06.SPA.bin switch 1-2 

and reloaded but Googling it looks as though I should have used software install file flash:cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.09.06.SPA.bin switch 1-2 force new

Has not running the force new arguments the most likely cause of my issue here?
