Hi.
I'm in gun powder and 9/10 when I attack medieval I get info on internet connectivity problem. Doesn't happen when attacking gun powder or enlightenment, only medieval and lower. Also the game takes it as a loss, so I lose medals and whole army. Any ideas?

Hopefully the CS person will send this over soon, Last War Did Not Close properly.
This affects access to the World War screen, the World War History, and the War Artifacts in the Museum. Who is affected - entire alliance. Going into its 3rd Day and I know I asked CS to bump the problem last night.

Donation issue still not fixed, and marking it fixed while not actually doing anything like with the bastions wont help.
