What an Antony victory at Actium would change

A single victory at Actium is judged insufficient to end the naval contest.

Question

What if Mark Antony had won the Battle of Actium?

Short answer

Augustus is expected to rebuild his fleet and return, with Antony losing the next encounter.

Notes

An Antony victory is treated as a temporary reversal for Augustus. Augustus is expected to return home, rebuild his fleet, and come back for another battle. The proposed result is an Antony defeat in that second encounter.
