I still wonder why no one wants to try the built-in network option of
VICE. Is that called "RR-Net"?

Anyway, I was able to run VICE (as "master" and "slave") on two (Linux)
machines in the local net. And was playing Save New York. Seems even in
the local net it lags a lot and it's not possible to play a game where
two people act at the same time.

But for Artillery Duel or others games based on "draw by draw" or how you
want to call it, it should be no problem.

Anyone wants to test it with me at the weekend?
