We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay . While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list.
Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize other’s...
This is a thread for posting replays to be analysed so that you can hear what experienced players have to say about your play and to help you improve. The following are the guidelines for such.
For Posting Replays
-Only post games in which you played.
-Be specific about the help you want.

The Wesnopedia says that
Javelineers are a valuable asset to an army.
But - are they, really? I mean, a Javelineer has mediocre melee and mediocre ranged capabilities. It has First Strike, that's true, but its HP is significantly lower than the Pikeman and not that much more than the Spearman....
Yes, a L3 Intelligent unit is generally less powerful (albeit marginally) than one with a different appropriate trait. But consider it from a different angle: There's only so much XP, realistically speaking, to go around. The more Intelligent units you have, the further that stretches, and the...
Just poison it and the surround it on 6 sides. The computer has some kind of sit and do nothing tactic when poisoned and unable to reach a village. Might even be a bug.
I've hit a confusing part in this campaign that I otherwise love. I looked for help in old threads but it seems that the campaign has been updated at some point and I can't even find anybody addressing this part of the mission—the way the wiki describes this chapter doesn't even sound remotely...
So, I'm playing Under the Burning Suns, on Medium.
Now, in most Wesnoth campaigns, there's a significant element of go to place X on the great continent, face creatures known to inhabit place X . That helps guide your choice of unit advancement - especially for Elvish Shamans. Also, you know what...
On the Discord server this morning, EoZ, catbegemot, and I were discussing the maximum possible damage that a unit can do in mainline Wesnoth, both with a single strike, and in a single turn.
For the single strike calculation, we arrived at 81 damage.
I just finished a rather ambitious project in which I completed all novice and intermediate campaigns on the hardest difficulty in permadeath mode (no reloads). It's taken me the better part of a year since I don't have time to play all the time and since you need to restart a lot in some...
Can anyone give me some pointers on what I'm supposed to do in the Decent into Darkness level of the campaign? I start surrounded by a few units, but after killing them and searching the entire map, there's nothing to do. The only objective is 'Complete the Ritual' and all of the tips I can find...
I am having some serious difficulties on Scenario 9, Valley of Death. (For what it's worth, this campaign I think needs a bit of balancing! The siege of elefsenar was also really difficult. I'm only on the medium difficulty even!)
So, let's cut to the chase. Obviously the first time I...
Damn this scenario is difficult.. Please, any tips or ANYTHING that will help us not die? I'm the elf and hell its difficult to survive when most of my units can be killed in just one turn, even level 3 archers.
I would have said, for a long time, that there are no easy answers in Wesnoth.
But I finally found one.
The Easy Answer to Wesnoth is the Elvish Sylph. If the Elvish Sylph wasn't so fun, it would be unbalanced. It is only unbalanced the way that eating an ice cream sundae is an unbalanced meal....
Hello guys this guide is written in 2018's to talk about some winning conditions that you may use in your favor. Before talking about some strategy and plans let's first talk about this old scenario that has been maintained actively.
Orocia is a survival game in which you have to face hordes of AI...
Update! I managed to beat Orc War, but still want general advice for both playing undead (single player) and specifically tips for Descent into Darkness. Once I beat it on medium I plan to try it on hard.
The walkthrough is outdated, and the how to play undead wiki article is fairly limited (for...
In HttT, you can recruit both Elvish Shamans and Mages. The base versions of those units perform very different functions, so it's not meaningful to compare them directly. But the leveled-up versions have considerable overlap in abilities, so it makes sense to compare them. And I'm having trouble...
First: sorry if I am wrong here. I never use this kind of Internet communication. Dont be offended, if I am using it wrong. And tell me, how to do it better please. Thank you.
Second: concerning LOTI. I was surprised about that high quality german text. Its great. Very well. Thank you.
Third:...
Hey everyone, I finished writing a walkthrough for revansurik's amazing and epic campaign, A Song of Fire!
If you read/use it I'd love to hear opinions such as which scenario entries need work, or how I could improve the unit overview section. (Also I think my unit assessments may be too...
Does such a thing exist? I haven't been able to find one, if it does....
I manage to hold off the orcs, but with nothing but peasants, it's a little hard to throw them back. I got one upgraded to a bowman, but they die so easily, as soon as they get close to leveling up the AI snuffs them out....
I played all of the way through Heir to the Throne and enjoyed it and got through it with no major problems. I’ve been doing the same with Eastern Invasion until I got to Captured.
The problem I am having is that when I open the cell doors, my freed units are not able to move immediately. That...
The Wesnoth forum discussion on this campaign is absolutely bonkers and has mostly troubleshooting in it. I want to talk about reasonably (not min maxing, but possibly farming items) obtaining an optimal unit. I’m new to the campaign and trying to gauge how best to proceed.
Hey it's been awhile since I've been to Wesnoth and i was wondering if there was any material I can read/watch to improve with the Undead. I seem to recall the 'How to Play...' series (think that's the right name) being a bit controversial regarding Undead. Am i just misremembering this or is there...
I saw Inky's Let's Play Dead Water post and I was very inspired. I am going to do a Let's Play in a similar format of the popular add-on campaign Legend of the Invincibles (Part 1) by Dugi, my favorite campaign. The scenarios are very fun, creative, and challenging, and there are a...
Hi,
I know battle for wesnoth for a long time, but I can not improve my skill and this is so frustating.
I have read the guide on the site and see some replay of pros, but almost every time I start a match on mutiplayer, I lose.
Nothing seems useful to improve my game, for this reason in this years...
