NOT, OR, AND, FALSE, TRUE are the ones that come to mind offhand...

"Boolean" refers to George Boole, a British mathematician/philosopher who invented this type of logic. Besides TRUE, FALSE, AND, OR, and NOT it also incluses XOR (exclusive OR) and > (greater than), < (less than), >= (greater than or equal to), <= (less than or equal to), <> (not equal to), and yet more operators.

And yes, this could get very complicated for the 'layman' gamer. It would be nice to have a 'game scripting engine' for dedicated geeks to tinker with but it would also need a nice simple interface for the ordinary gamer to be able to use it or else the geeks will have only themselves to game with.
