  Description     : Stratagus is a free cross-platform real-time strategy
gaming engine.

Stratagus is a fork of the Freecraft engine.

This generic engine that can be used to play 'wargus'
(Warcraft II or WCII-like "Aleonas Tales")
or 'stargus' (StarCraft) games.

Only wargus is in a good shape, it will be addressed in a other ITP.

Stratagus was once in Debian, but got removed years ago when Freecraft
was deemed in a better shape; nowadays "Freecraft" name seems to have
vanished from the surface of the earth and only links to minecraft-y stuff.

Thanks to the renewal of interrest brought by Stratagus's fork Wyrmsun;
development is lively again with a third of four completely different team
and long standing bugs have been fixed.

--------

I plan to first continue to fix the upstream-provided debian/
directory with help from other Debian-using contributors
& then upload it to Debian inside the Games Team.
