Games included in release 0.9.3[/SIZE] Boswars
Boswars 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's about the war between Aliens and Humans (as known from Alien vs. Predator). Thus when you join a game, you have to choose whether to join the alien fraction or to save the humans from beeing defeated.

Wesnoth
Wesnoth is a very popular turn-based strategy game played on a hexgrid, with single-player campaigns as well as multi-player matches. A central philosophy in the design of the game is the KISS principle; for a new idea to be accepted, it should not complicate gameplay.
Each unit has its own strengths and weaknesses. A unit's defense is based solely on the type of terrain it stands on, making terrain and placement of units very important. Different types of attacks (such as melee and ranged), weapon types (such as pierce and fire), and a day-night cycle that alternately favors lawful and chaotic units add to the strategy. Throughout the campaigns units can advance to higher level counterparts and become more powerful. Part of the fun of the game is developing a personalised army of advanced units as a campaign progresses.
World of Padman
World of Padman is a colorful comic style first person shooter started as Q3 modification, which became a standalone game in April 2007. This fondly styled game demonstrates, how fast paced shooter action can be managed without blood and dark ambience.
