Bos Wars is a real-time strategy game that uses a modified version of the
Stratagus game engine.
+Bos Wars is a futuristic real time strategy game (RTS). In a RTS game, the
+player has to combat his enemies while developing his war economy. Everything
+runs in real-time, as opposed to turn-based games where the player always has
+to wait for his turn. The trick is to balance the effort put into building his
+economy and building an army to defend and attack the enemies.
+
+Bos Wars has a dynamic rate based economy. Energy is produced by power plants
+and magma gets pumped from hot spots. Buildings and mobile units are also
+built at a continuous rate. Control of larger parts of the map creates the
+potential to increase your economy throughput. Holding key points like roads
+and passages allow for different strategies.
+
+It is possible to play against human opponents over LAN, internet, or against
+the computer. Bos Wars successfully runs under Linux, MS Windows, BSD, and Mac
+OS X.
+
+Bos Wars aims to create a completely original and fun open source RTS game.
