Bug#358566: RFP: Freelords -- FreeLords is a turn-based strategy game in the style of the classical Warlords. In short, you produce armies in cities and use them to conquer more cities and finally defeat the other players.

Because even uploading stuff to experimental takes time.  And I forgot
that, that paragui is one of the packages Bartosz orphaned and gave to
pkg-games anyway.

Therefore we (pkg games team) could indeed upload paragui 1.1.8 and
freelord to experimental.... speaking of that I cite him in [1]:

====
libparagui1.0 - 1.0.x branch is dead, all things that depend on it should be
imediately switched to 1.1.x branch which is alive. Upstream is helpful if
you take into account that he forgot about 1.0.x branch and doesn't want to
fix issues in it.
====

So I correct myself:  Dependency on paragui 1.1.x is not a showstopper.
