      Wargus is a Warcraft2 Mod that allows you to play Warcraft2 with
      the <a href="http://www.stratagus.org">Stratagus</a> engine, as
      opposed to play it with the original Warcraft2 one. So unless
      you have a legal copy of Warcraft2 (original DOS Version
      required, won't work with the battle.net edition) Wargus will be
      pretty useless to you, since it doesn't come with any graphics
      or sounds itself.
    </p>
    <p>
      So why play Warcraft2 with the <a
      href="http://www.stratagus.org">Stratagus</a> engine instead of
      the original Warcraft2 one? There are numerous reasons, first it
      allows you to play Warcraft2 under GNU/Linux and other operating
      systems not supported by the original Warcraft2 engine, secondly
      it allows you to play over the internet, which the original
      Warcraft2 engine didn't allow you to. Last not least the
      Stratagus engine allows you to tweak numerous parameters so you
      can play around with different unit strength and such.
    </p>
    <p>
      Since Wargus uses a different engine, not all things will work
      100% the same as they did in the original Warcraft2, if you want
      the original unchanged Warcraft2 experience, you will still have
      to use the original Warcraft2.
