      Description: Globulation 2 - a free and innovative strategy game
      Long Description: Globulation 2 is an innovative high quality Real-Time Strategy, which minimizes micro-management by automatically assigning tasks to the units. The player has to choose the number of units he wants for the different tasks, and the units will do their best to satisfy the requests. This allows to manage more units and to focus on the strategy. It can be played alone, through your Local Area Network, or through Internet thanks to Ysagoon Online Game, a meta-server. It also features a scripting language for versatile gameplay or tutorials and an integrated map editor.
