Several of our mainline campaigns are in the works for upgrades at the moment, which includes adding characters and enhancing existing scenarios. We are looking for more artwork to supplement these upgrades, including the following:
4 portraits (3 are variations of a character)
4 story screens...
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...
okay, I am planning a campaign where people speak, chant, sing, decode messages in some sort of Wesnothian latin. as a sort of 'olden language spoken by the priests'. I once overheard that such languages did exist, but am not sure. at first I was going to use latin, but somehow that would been too...
I am cautiously considering reviving an old fanfic I started last summer. I'm not sure what kind of response it will generate, but the point is that I wish to give it another go.
The issue is that I don't know the logistics of reviving a story almost a year old for continuation. Would it be...
Well, I've decided to take a shot at writing a campaign again (and this time I really am committed to getting something done :D ).
Story:
The protagonist is the lost heir to the throne, who is raised by oppressed peasants. Thus he grows up hating the monarchy, thinking it an evil to be...
The description of the Deathknight says they would rise spontanously from their hatred, and wielded the weapons they used in life.
But they use axes instead of the swords Wesnoth officers and Orc chieftains wield, who are the closest to the deathknight...
But more importantly, do other people find...
Hi everyone! Well, after closing my last campaign, I decided to read some guides that teach how to make a campaign interesting and challenging. In fact now I want to do a campaign far better organized with different maps and objectives more stimulant. I started writing the whole campaign in a...
In my campaign 17th infantry the story follows the 17th infantry division of the wesnothian army.
The story currently starts with the division attacking a goblin outpost in the north.
I'm not a great writer so I've came to the forums to ask for ideas, I would like the campaign to be as lore...
This is just a text I wrote because it came into my head one night. :roll: I never really intended to use it for anything, but thought it might do for a work sample JIC. :wink: BTW just edited it a little now.
Hope you guys like it. I'm not sure as to the quality, though. (Oh and please...

Recently I began to go back to my Apocalypse Era, I've done some rewriting etc... and I've come up with a bit of a background story (and timeline) for the era. And have begun thinking up a campaign. Before I put it to code I'd like some opinions on this. Thanks.
I decided to post the story for my SurvivalXtreme mp-campaign (NX-RPG) here for comments :D . I make some use of some storyline/characters from other SurvivalXtreme and Bob's REP add-ons, BTW. :wink:
So basically the story is that the Dark Lord (borrowed from Bob's Dark castle RPG, you...
Hi everyone! I'm creating my first campaign, so I decided to write here the storyline. It is very simple (it's just my first work ^^) so if there are timeline errors or something, please let me know!
The story takes place during the reign of Haldric I, when Wesnoth was just founded. It deals with...
I know it may seem a little silly for me to register to nitpick about one small issue, but it bugs me every time I see it.
Whether or not Wesnoth is supposed to be modeled in any way on history, to mistake a sergeant for a cadet is a gross misuse of the word. In the flavor text, it is stated that...
On my version, ( 1.9.6 source code, ) wolves and woses are yet to have a race description written for them.
Is this deliberate or just has nobody done it yet? Anyway, I gave it a go, if it has been done in 1.9.7, or, like undead traits, this is deliberate, please kill this thread.
I have a question about the Sceptre of Fire (I searched in the forum whether someone already had asked similar questions but I have found nothing). :hmm:
Resuming History:
-the nucleus of it, the Ruby of Fire, is a powerful artifact of the Wesfolk people. It was discovered in the year 1 BW and...
I just read the Timeline of Wesnoth , and noticed the time around SotBE.
How long do orcs live? This time piece is titled 761-816 YW: The Legacy of Black-Eye Karun - which, too me, means that Black-Eye at least lived at 761, but supposedly even started to unify the orcish tribes. This means he got...
I was going to have an opponent give the goods guys one hour to surrender, but I wonder if there is such a thing as an hour in Wesnoth. Is there only the six divisions (dusk, first watch, etc.) that are used?
Just had a most pleasant game with northeners, and in the intoxication of victory, went an recited a brief extempore on the topic. As this is indeed the writer's forum, I suppose it's a fine place to publish it. Apologies for bad taste.
When sounds the frantic chime of battle,
The swords that...
As the Khalifate faction have been mainlined, I've begun a project to write new unit descriptions for them. Most of their units lack descriptions or have rather poor old ones, but whatever scraps of lore I could glean from those descriptions have implemented here. Given this, I'll be...
Preparation of texts for the solar saurians faction and units (lack armored units).
Solar saurians
Solar saurians are a mysterious people. Even their elven allies in the south desert ignore their history.
In their element in the sand, they mainly differ...
So I was looking through the Wesnoth unit names a second ago, and I suddenly realised some of the merman names were deities! (Either that or mythical monsters, such as Scylla)
male_names= _ Absu, Abzu, Aigaion, Alastyn, Apalala, Apam, Apsu,Aremata,Atlahua,Atlaua,...
The title of the threat sounds very taken (or shelfish) but I don't want anyone work for me. I'll explain:
Since I started playing wesnoth I wanted to make a very ambitius project (for me at least): A campaign which tell the story of a tribe who appears in the north of wesnoth and have to pass some...
So, I'm french speaker, and I need especially hep about my english descriptions.
I work actually on a campaign and an era. It is Era of Invasions. So I add new factions at the default factions. My factions must be accorded with the default factions. The two mean factions are the demons and...
Long time player, first time poster here. I have always liked the nagas, but they never get any love, so I decided to make a short naga campaign. I was looking through the forum for any lore about them; everything that I've found is from circa 2008 at the latest. Does anyone know...
I'm starting up a new campaign, and i'm looking for someone to help with the writing side of the project. In previous projects i've found myself wasting lots of time writing and rewriting dialogue/story in a mad pursuit of perfection. This time around, i'd rather spend that time coding...
