That could be a real problem if SP is not licensed under the GPL.

But if the rules of your game are different, then the units are no longer going to be balanced.
I think that some little changes would be enough
You are of course welcome to use any of the units of Wesnoth so long as you comply with the terms of the GNU GPL which they are licensed under.
Which are those terms? it would be a free game, should it have a "copyright" for the units from Wesnoth (and the code from S.P.)?
Well, I was thinking about creating the game first, and then thinking about the copyrights... :D

Could someone help me with the legal stuff?


...I'm begining to think about using different units than those from Wesnoth :( .
