Simple question I think, but why can't I find Ratheln the mage?
I'm doing The Hammer of Thursagan campaign, and am on the High Pass scenario. I've seen him found in one replay I've watched, so I'm just missing something.
I'm wondering if it's because I'm doing either the Normal or Easy mode, and...
I'm unclear what I'm supposed to do here; The dialogue tells me not to slaughter the elves, but there are too many of them to move past, and too many choke points. I have tried sneaking past them to the east, but they still come and get you there. *Am* I supposed to just kill them all?
This is my first ever forum post, so if I did something wrong (put this discussion in the wrong forum, creating a post that has already been created, post against forum guidelines, etc) please just let me know and I'll try to fix it!
I played my first Afterlife Rated tournament game today...
Recently in the Wesnoth official discord me and several other people have been having a discussion about how to properly evaluate relative mobility of units. Many units have the same mp, but somehow we feel intuitively that the move cost pattern of one unit is better than the move...
Know you the south guard scenario (I don't know his name I know only I this scenario we can rekruit elwen shamans or elwish fighters,we can do aliance with bandits or be their enemies, destroy domek walking corpses or we MUST destroy lich named ??? )
In village in lake we seen instead friends .This...
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...
Hi,
Has anyone recently tried the Legend of Wesmere co-op multiplayer campaign? I'm playing it with a friend and we have been stuck for months on the Human Alliance scenario. It seems like there is just an impossible amount of enemies compared to the forces you can muster with your gold.
Suppose you're playing a (campaign) scenario where you don't have a whole lot of gold. And suppose also you've recalled L>=2 units if you had them and wanted them. But - you also have some L1 units from previous scenarios. An L1 that's almost-leveled is usually a good recall prospect, assuming you...
So here I will praise myself for finishing Northern Rebirth on nightmare, I know people have done it before but I will share the replays anyway.
It took me a long time to finish and some scenarios were quite hard. I would say that the hardest 2 scenarios were Infested Caves and Setting Disputes...
Hello, when I played NR at first a couple of time ago, I struggled in this scenario. There seem to be two recommended strategies:
1. Rush to the northwest with your heroes and snipe the blue leader, then let the other armies come to you. I've tried that, maybe twice iirc, but both times the six...
This is a guide for playing World Conquest, a user-designed multiplayer co-op campaign. The guide is designed for people who have tried playing the campaign at least a few times.
Like any survival, World Conquest (a.k.a. wc) is all about damage control. Your job is to not die. If you fail to die...
I’m playing now The South Guard, on Soldier (Normal), (which is the hardest diff level there), forcing myself to strictly avoid any mid-scenario saveloading.
I chose the bandit path this time, and I successfully passed all scenarios until Pebbles… Successfully means here while collecting all...
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...
Allow me to present the start of the Before You Play series. This is a series of articles that gives you information about what you should expect mechanically and strategically before beginning a Wesnoth Campaign, without spoiling everything and without getting too specific about what you should...
Helo everybody!
I've got a question regarding the scenario Beleaguered dwarves within the campaign An innocent man .
The allied Character Bronna throws herself right from the start into a tunnelfight with ghuls.
Soon she is poisoned but not giving up her top position until she dies and I therefore...
I'm using Ageless Era and the Random Campaign, with the passive XP addon set to 1 per turn. With all the gold set to minimum, I think it's 50? And -2 income. What this does is allow me to recruit what basically is a fellowship type party. I get around 5 units each scenario. It feels like Baldur's...
I was on my ubuntu computer after a long time using windows and decided to go back to my origins and download Battle for Wesnoth again. For the first time I am finishing a campaign in the game without cheating, the one where the character was a villager and became a bandit because of the queen....
Some time ago I decided to beat Eastern Flank, my favourite scenario, on the third difficulty. I had beaten it on the first two before, but now I couldn't get past the second scenario until I set the difficulty on the easiest one.
The old tactics just didn't work there. What's your strategy there?
I have to admit that, being inexperienced, I only played short starter campaigns, looking to learn a thing or two. So I made the most terrible choice so far: playing The Eastern Invasion
At first, it seemed like a simple story to learn how to face the undead with just soldiers and mages... But...
Hello. For a couple years I've been thinking about how I sort units in Wesnoth, and I've come up with descriptions for each category of unit I have thought of. Generally, I tend to sort units in these categories by attacks and usage, though the rules are not the most strict. I often end up with...
Hi everyone! Some time ago on the Russian forum Wesnothlife known high-rated ladder players igorbat99 published a series of three posts called Dirty Strategies . They were dedicated to various rush tactics which aren't optimal but with luck and opponent's being not prepared can obtain a quick...
Hi everyone! This time I will continue to translate igorbat's Dirty strategies first published in Russian on the Wesnothlife forums -- this time I publish a translation of an illustrated article. This piece will be dedicated to a single important topic: Loyalist horse rush.
Hi guys, wanna bring your attention to a little tactical thing for which I'd like to coin a term 9 xp to level trap . Hope sounds fancy enough :D got caught in it myself and seen it today again so decided to tell here.
What's the deal? The opponent has a unit. You can't kill it but can attack to...
Hello. I recently won a game against drakes with only poachers/trappers. So i try it again and again and still, I think this guys are very good. How can you stop poachers/trappers as drake player?
they are fast, good in villages and difficult terrain, can kill all units and they have no weaknesses.
In the latest 1.15.x (and soon to be 1.16 in the foreseeable future) branches, many scenarios and units in the mainline campaigns have undergone re-designs. Some have been slightly altered, introducing negligible changes in tactics. However, certain campaigns have scenarios that have undergone...
