We have a new fast, robust and flexible pathfinder, a brandnew terrain
generator, full UNICODE support and better multiplayer. NewGRF
compatibility (modding) has been greatly enhanced with support for changing
stations, adding sounds, more vehicle sets, etc.
The smaller feature- and buglist goes on and on, but we'll let the user
explore this. All users of 0.4.8 are encouraged to update to this new
release. Enjoy!
the Stratagus game engine. Stratagus is a free cross-platform RTS (Real Time
Strategy) game engine written in C, and scripted with Lua. Stratagus has been
used for many games, Battle for Mandicor being one of them.
The fantasy world called Mandicor is much like Tolkien's Middle-Earth and has
a long history. Though not yet finished, a player can control four races in
game; dwarves, gnomes, humans, and goblins. Each has advantages and
disadvantages within the game. While playing, you need to collect resources,
train large armies, and research items in order to create a more powerful
society and defeat the enemy. Campaigns, yet to be finished, will be based
upon a long and interesting history.

- Change "Battle Of Survival" to "Bos Wars" (project name changed, but port
repomove will happen when they release the first version under the new
name - when DISTNAME changes).
- Use static pkg-plist.
- Use SF macro in MASTER_SITES.
- Redefine EXTRACT_SUFX instead of DISTNAME to avoid changing WRKSRC.
- Use NOT_FOR_ARCHS for sparc64 instead of checking ${ARCH}.
- Use SUB_FILES for pkg-message instead of processing it manually.
- Use patch for Makefile instead of REINPLACE_CMD.
- Use FIND + MKDIR/INSTALL_DATA to install for avoiding too many commands.
- Misc format to pkg-message.
- Improve wrapper script: use "exec" to avoid wasting resources with the
script itself, take installation message from 'pkg_info -D' instead of
duplicating it inside the script, use SUB_LIST macros like DATADIR.

Since then, there has been some source ports of this game, most notably the
now neglected Anvil of Thyrion project. But nothing has been done for Linux
since the beginning of 2002.
The Hammer of Thyrion project continues the development for Linux and BSD
people, with continued support for Windows users as well. Many bugs are fixed
and even new features are added:
New sound modes, improved mouse handling, improved video modes, OpenGL glows
and more.
This port installs various additions to the game (mods, demos, etc).

asks you for a word or a phrase, and you try to give the correct answer.
You can choose in what direction LaTrine shall ask, and the selection of
the words or phrases will depend on how often you don't know the correct
translation for the respective phrase. This is a conventional way to drill
yourself in vocabulary. In addition to this package you need an
appropriate dictionary. You may write your own word list, or you can
download one from the internet. The Free Dictionaries Project provides
dictionaries for about 50 language combinations, which can be used with
LaTrine.

Gnono is a rewrite for GNOME, under the GPL license, of the Windows
card game WUNO. The objective of this classic game is to discard all
of one's cards before the opponent does, by matching the value or
color of the top discard (or playing a wild card).

simulation, and the primary form of conflict is over land and plant
resources---there is no shooting, but there are plenty of angry
looks. It is also an evolution simulation. Within the world of
Cultivation, you can explore a virtually infinite spectrum of
different plant and gardener varieties.
All of the graphics, sounds, melodies,and other content in Cultivation
are 100% procedurally generated at playtime. In other words, there
are no hand-painted texture maps---instead, each object has a
uniquely "grown" appearance. Every time you play, Cultivation
generates fresh visuals, music, and behaviors.
