''Stratagus'' is a free cross-platform game engine used to build real-time strategy video games. Licensed under the GNU GPL,〔(Stratagus's copyfile ) at (Debian Packages )〕 it is written in C with the configuration language being Lua. SDL, gzip and bzip2 are among the external libraries used. ==History== On June 15, 1998 Lutz Sammer released the first public version of a free ''Warcraft II'' clone for Linux he had written, named ''ALE Clone''. In 1999 it was renamed to ''Freecraft''. In June 2003, a cease and desist letter was received from Blizzard Entertainment, who thought the name ''Freecraft'' could cause confusion with the names ''StarCraft'' and ''Warcraft'', and that some of the ideas within the engine were too similar to ''Warcraft II''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Howard Wen, ''Stratagus: Open Source Strategy Games'' linuxdevcenter.com July 15, 2004 )〕 The project halted on June 20, 2003.〔(FreeCraft Cease and desisted by Blizzard ) – Slashdot〕 In 2004〔(stratagus news )〕 the developers regrouped to continue the work by the name of ''Stratagus'', with a change in the aim. The former interest in using the data files from ''WarCraft'' had diminished. The difference being, the project was previously using the data files from ''Warcraft II'' was split off into the new and separate project ''Wargus'' and the free media set imitating ''Warcraft II'' was discontinued.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stratagus )〕 Note that two versions later spawned from this, one allowing users to play in linux environments. On June 10, 2007, development of Stratagus was paused . The ''Stratagus'' developers began working on ''Bos Wars'', which uses its own modified version of the ''Stratagus'' engine. In June 2010 some of developers moved Stratagus project from Sourceforge to Launchpad and started working on Stratagus and games again. Now Stratagus, Wargus and Stargus are developed by (Stratagus team on Launchpad ). Playable ''Stratagus''-based games are: fantasy ''Aleona's Tales'',〔(Aleona's Tales (Stratagus game) – Free Gamer )〕 medieval ''Battle for Mandicor'',〔(Battle for Mandicor – Filewatcher )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Battle for Mandicor )〕 ''Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness'' port ''Wargus'', futuristic ''Battle of Survival'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bos Wars - Moblin.org )〕〔(Bos Wars ) – Softpedia〕 historically-inspired ''Commander Stalin'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Commander Stalin: Open Source Free Strategy Game )〕〔(Commander Stalin ) – Softpedia〕〔(Commander Stalin ), Tux Blog: Linux Software & Games Reviews.〕 ''StarCraft'' port ''Stargus'', and space age ''Astroseries''.
