Basically exactly what it says on the tin - instead of Sextus Pompey being executed by Antony's lieutenant Titius, he manages to get to Antony and convince him to team up. It means a talented admiral is among Antony's supporters - and this one can't desert for Octavian, and is an admiral Octavian and Agrippa were hard-pressed to defeat. And it could be argued that given time to regroup Sextus may have learned from that final defeat. Does this change anything when Octavian and Antony go to war?

Cleopatra was once a Pompeian herself, her family clients of Pompey the Great, so that's an angle to look at too.
