Enjoy reviving this old strategy game on your modern VIC-20s .

Thank you! We were really hoping to fill a gap in the VIC software availability, and provide hours of strategic fun with a Roman theme.

I still find it funny what happens when you allow oneself plenty of time and delay the unification of Europe until after 400 A.D. - and the Huns then wreak havoc with your Empire.
As we put the final touches on the game, Alessandro and I had a slightly heated debate how to balance the game in a way it can still be won in that stage, by a small margin though.
Ah, the memories ...
P.S. Earlier this year I had some 'fun' with my file hoster, because M$ broke nearly all my d/l URLs.
Here's the currently working link for the game: victoria.zip

Well, I just gave it another go and it took me about 2 hours to play out til the very end and
I was able to keep the Huns at bay for the most part but it got dicey in parts. Thank god for the Arabs...LOL.
