Description:
 Boson is an OpenGL real-time strategy game. It is
designed to run on Unix (Linux) computers, and is
built on top of the KDE, Qt and kdegames
libraries.

Changelog:
 -- Shadows --
Units and terrain can now cast and receive shadows
(recent graphic card required!)

-- Radars --
A completely new, much more realistic radar system
has been implemented that allows for several
independent radar stations, for both, land and
air. 

-- Ammunition --
Units can make use of ammunition now. Most units
have an infinite amount of ammunition, but the
feature is there. 

-- Power Plants --
The power plant unit has been in Boson for a very
long time - now they actually generate power!

-- A new species --
A completely new species with its own models is
available.
