The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

it has been reported that the massive AMLA screens of Efraim and Lethalia cannot be dispalyed correctly on android devices.
as for iphone, i have no idea if wesnoth is even stable on those, but i guess it is the same problem here.

in my first play, i had 2 robes that give poison and plague (or was it infect?). i gave them to a ranger and an assassin and teamed them with my necromancer. this team was super-effective against generic low-level orc armies, because they almost always caused a zombie apocalypse. the woodland cloak ...

"A pole weapon or polearm is a close combat weapon in which the main fighting part of the weapon is fitted to the end of a long shaft, typically of wood, thereby extending the user's effective range." - Wikipedia as a more literal translation: "pole" is a focused point, like a m...

since drawing new sprites is very difficult, many people tend to recycle existing sprites. the LI'Sar sprite is often used for female fencer type units, because she is the only female fender available. the female duelist mage from Legend of the Invincibles also looks like Li'Sar and her high-level a...

Hi, i have one question. I used Book of Fireballs on my Duelist mage. I leveled up and have 2 options: faster fireballs (+1 attack ) more explosive fireballs (+1 attack AND explosive) and i can buy this more than 1 time is this intended? the duelist mage has fireballs by default. the book of fireba...

Can you say the way to get to the library? it is not shown on the map, because it is secret. the hint on the map says, that there may be more rooms which are not depicted. the drawing has 2 or 3 "holes" in it. each of these blank spaces is another room, one of them is the library. i think...

big news: in the last time i have played more minetest than wesnoth. also ideas for minetest come more easy to me than ideas for wesnoth, so i decided to make a minetest subgame instead of a wesnoth era. the only wesnoth i played was LotI, which inspired me to change my campaign idea to be more like...

the meteor attack from LotI targets all units in an area. for animation it uses a large halo frame sequence and immediately after the animation has finished the damage is inflicted. if your special affects all units in all directions, you could just use a circular lightening animation around the att...

why not call it "in love" for now.
an elf in love with his girlfriend would surely resist the succubus temptation.

while the normal "unit description" does not show extra modifications, the "unit information" from the "items" right-click-menu shows everything you want to know. even AMLAs and Books.

but even if you don't consider the undead male, the game sets their gender to male, if they are not specified as female. so by default, all undead with the charm ability will only affect female units. in this case the female gender should be added to the undead race, but then we need something to se...

i remember that in part1 enemy units sometimes had special powers, like extra attacks, movements, defence or resistance. those units were coloured different (using and overlay filter). this way it was easy to tell which units were stronger than normal and what abilities they had. the same method cou...

yay! i can't wait to continue my adventure in part 2. technical question about the tome of necromancy: does the lich only keep the legacy or also the advancements that were already taken in that legacy? meaning if a unit with a fire breath attack from a dragon legacy becomes a lich, will it keep the...

"Legend of the Invincibles" (LotI) tells this story, although only the great finale where the third sun falls down to earth is actually shown here. the previous events and the attacks of other factions are just described in pre-scenario texts. apparently Efraim and Lethalia were involved i...

time to revive the undead unit discussion: if i remember correctly someone said that ghosts can equip helms and boots. so i expected that this would solve the ghost's equipment problem, but it did not. i had 2 wraiths and wanted to give them some equipment to survive against the many mage enemies, b...
