Who owns the game Victoria and can play it?

I'm seeing if a multiplayer game is viable.

If you're not looking specifically for SD.net players, here's all the Victoria MP action you could ask for.

I have it but I an simply incapable of putting forth the level of micromanagement that it demands for success. Everyone in the game has a planned economy, and I'm beginning to understand why this caused the Soviets to fail so badly :cry:

Steve loves that game, but he's currently dealing with Frances dumping a shitload of water on him at the mo'.

I don't get the game at all. I haven't had the time to put in. I prefer HoI.

I have it and like it (nothing better than stealing Canada from the Brits and selling Quebec back to France), but I'm in Japan so I doubt we could play an effective MP game (weird timezones and all).

I was aiming primarily for SDN players.

It appears that a game still isn't viable...I'll test the water in a few months, I suppose.

I've got the game but I've been using cheat codes to simplify the game. This game is very much into micromanagement and I don't to spend too much time gathering resources. I've also used a patch that stretches the game to the year 3000.

I'm playing as the U.S. and I'm in a constant war with Mexico.

You can't beat Mexico with cheat codes and millennia?

I'm using the cheat codes so I do not have to worry about the mega micromanagement in any nation I play.

Plus, I want to conquer the world, and 84 years isn't enough.

Played it and nuked the world as Canada. But then the computer crashed. Hopefully Superpower 2 will be better.

I'd play, I think I've got it down now. Considering I've managed to make Greece the 4th most prestigous nation, 22nd military and my industry is just getting into full swing. If I can do that with Greece...

Yes it is. :P Russia, China, and the UK are the easiest for that job.
