A few more items about Victory! that I thought were worth mentioning.
During the game as you progress from year to year, you are able to build new
units as they become available.  In other words, just as new weapons/vehicles
were invented during the course of the war, the available ships/tanks/airplanes
in Victory! are added to with new models.
	There is also a nice feature (at least I thought so) that make all
the countries surrounding yours at the beginning of the game neutral.  You
have to declare war upon them before you can attack them.  I believed
neutrality is maintained for the first few turns (at least in the demo game
described).  This gives the player some breathing room at the very beginning
of the game.

Now for some personal comments:

Do any of you out there play The Next Empire?  I've had some replys
from people who play Legends, but none from individuals who might play TNE.
	Have any of you heard anything about AndCon '91 (the national PBM
convention)?  I received a flyer with one of my turns of TNE, and I saw a
small blurb in Paper Mayhem, but that's been all.  Did any of you attend last
year?  I've been thinking about going, but I'd like to know more about it
first.

You asked for some info on Victory! Dave.  I guess I just got carried away.
