has either player altered or updated the game since the game started?

has either player tried with a new version of the game installed, just in case either one is corrupt etc?

uninstalling and reinstalling won't effect online play, but a corrupt game installed, will or might,.

is the corrupt game save from a official released game? or a modded one etc?

I messaged my opponent, but no reply.
I have not altered or updated the game for possibly years (!).
I have not tried with a new version of the game because I bought mine in a box with a disc and every time I need to reload it I end up in a discussion about my licence!
The corrupt game save is from Sealion - Airfield Assault.

if either player is on a different version, eg later or earlier it can effect online games im sorry to say, as the different version wont match and one or both gets the error, nothing we can do at this end, but if you can get a reply / answer from the other player confirming it's the same version, build etc, then something else is or maybe wrong.

well it's one way of looking at it, and if it becomes a problem, just contact staff support who will try and sort out any serial number and upgrade issues you have, either way good luck

yes, it maybe just the one battle that's the issue, as is it a standard one, eg not a modded version, altered in any way, and some battle may not have been updated altered from one patch to the next, with others maybe getting an update, so some battles work, while another one won't as it's different, unless you know for sure what you have and the other person users etc, there's not a lot anyone can do, other than suggest both uninstall and reinstall and patch to the same version, eg the latest tbh which should fix all

My guess would be that the turn was uploaded as corrupt. You could contact support and get them to roll back the turn for the other player to replay.

Cheers
