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.
I'm sure i'm missing something, so if someone can enlighten me, i've got no clue how to do this campaign's first mission on hard. My best try was actually the first but.... when my buddy mage came back i was in the upper left...
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...
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...
Greetings. This is a strategy post . Because I must always explain the whole to the newcomers, here i put the post.
I play WC II a lot. I'm very noob so i play Guild faction. and fav add-ons :mrgreen: item drop mod. and extra advancements.
Some players use the more advancements from Reign of the...
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....
I have been looking around the various advice pages and threads, but pretty much all of them seem focused on PvP, where both sides have the same amount of gold . So they say things like: attack mages with ulfserkers! The opponent loses 20+ gold while you lose only 19! Which is great in MP, but...
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.
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...
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...
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 guys, I need help. I’ve played this game for the better part of a decade, but have only now gotten into the pvp scene. And I’ve been getting absolutely spanked. It’s good fun to see people’s strategy, how easily they bait me into being too conservative. But any tips would be great, I never knew...
Please help! I can't defeat Iron Eater. Someone told that I have to wait for a guy with heavy armour who will come to help me. Where, when and how he will come. I am now in turn 45 and playing version 1.14.13.
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...
So I've beaten all of the mainline campaigns on the normal difficulty mode, and I'm playing through them again on hard mode. I'm up to Heir to the Throne, and I'm getting stuck, and I'm NOT looking for 'walkthrough' style advice. Instead I'm looking for philosophical advice on how to enjoy some of...
In The Rise of Wesnoth, there's a scenario named A New Land, where the goal is to survive with no deaths - neither to you nor the enemy - for as many turns as possible.
I'm playing on Medium difficulty, and have a few questions:
1. About what number of turns I could expect potentially survive?
2....
