hi! i don't know how to code or make a new era, but i have an idea. is it possible to have an add-on where neutral creeps spawn like in warcraft 3? players can kill the creeps for experience, and enemies can try to killsteal the creeps. either make the creeps spawn in certain places at the start, or...

[MP 1v1 Default] First to Time of Day or Second?
Hi guys,
just wanted to get everyone's thoughts on how p1 experiences each TimeOfDay first, and then p2 experiences it.
do you prefer being first to each time of day? or second?
personally i've always had an unjustified hunch that first to each time of day has some advantage.

[1v1 Article] Effective HP and Effective Damage
Hi, I'm just sharing my thoughts on 1v1 play, though some of it will certainly apply in other parts of wesnoth. INTRO Effective HP and effective damage are two methods of estimating the crude HP and damage units can take in and deal out. The idea is to help in comparing different units for accomplis...

Re: Playing Northeners
well said, 5dPZ.
any problem you are trying to overcome, using assassins or archers or wolf riders or whatever...
you can usually overcome with more grunts, used strategically.

Re: Playing Northeners
i specialise northerners.
i can only say that you're probably undervaluing grunts.
or you are undervaluing trolls.
when i played the other races, then i realised how expensive the other units are relative to these discount troops. use and abuse them.

Re: Hulavuta's Drake Strategy Guide
for drakes against undead, i recruit all fighters, group drakes with the same movement together(quick vs non-quick), fly around, threaten flanking manoeuvres, gang on units when you expect to deal more damage/get more kills than you will suffer in the counter attack. burners are okay, but their diff...

Re: The Point of Goblins?
it really depends on what units are in the area / in range. whether those units can kill the goblin in one attack or one turn.
goblin on mountain has a good chance of surviving one attack from some units (ghost, orc archer, grunt[2 strikes], etc.)

Re: The Point of Goblins?
goblins are good against several units and i use them.
sometimes i recruit them and send them in pairs, making sure they have the same speed.
i find their best use is sitting on villages or blocking out tiles.

Re: Factional jack or specialist?
yes. randoming is a disadvantage after my idea. but it is only a disadvantage relative to what it is now, which supports the fact that people feel they gain advantage from going random. which i think shouldn't be the case. my idea only equalizes random and choosing instead of giving each different a...

Re: Factional jack or specialist?
my idea of showing your 'random' choice and making it changeable, combined with hiding player races/leaders pre-game would satisfy all these people. those who are lazy to decide, want variety/challenge, can pick random. if they don't like it, they can random again, or choose. those who have a prefe...

Re: Factional jack or specialist?
Do you think that hidden leaders should be revealed before battle or when scouted? i have the opinion of only one person, and this is regarding an issue that is far from settled, but i think that they should be scouted to find the opponent's race. that's fun and realistic(in a fantasy-setting) to me.
