Are we OK?

In a multiplayer game I'm in, the hosting player upgraded the server to 2.06, then hosted a turn with Version 2.02 .2h files.

It seemed to run OK.

What are the potential consequences of this? Everything seems fine on the server, but I'm wondering if our turnfiles are necessarily telling us the truth, and whether there could be hidden corruption that will bite us later on.

As long as the game doesn't crash there shouldn't be any problems beyond battle replays being much more likely to misrepresent the outcome of the battle.
