The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Thank you for the feedback! Water supremacy: This is one aspect that I didn't take into account at all. When I had my leader in the center, I make use of water units to harass the flanks. As a remedy and to incorporate more water based fighting, imagine this: Take player 3's position, a river that f...

Here is the map I am considering to enter to the Wesnoth Cartographers Contest. Before I officially submit anything, I would like to get a response from the community and a couple people who would like to play test it. 4p_Temple was created to be a tournament style four player map (North VS South). ...

Here are some of the changes I made. First off i removed the villages that are able to be stolen and moved them more inland. Next I made that whole area near the center of the map a little harder to traverse, including taking out a strip of the ford in the river. I played four rounds, two being with...

Thanks for the advice! I have read through the guide before I made this map, so I tried to keep these issues in mind. But because I am new to the game, some of the intricacies have slipped by, such as the first player advantage issue. I think making the map bigger would help out, or making the fords...

If you pair a veteran and a fresh unit you can try to put the XP in the new unit. That way you can 'breed' a powerful army with lots of experienced units. That is a good idea a...

High-level units cost 2 or 3 per turn in upkeep, and it adds up fast. If you recall them first, you will be taking a gold hit before you have a chance to pick up any villages. This is wonderful. I didn't realize that they are more to upkeep! Either I didn't pay attention in the tutorial, or I have ...

Those are indeed wise words. Thank you!

Small powerful force < Larger balanced army

I was playing HttT Campaign last night, a handful of missions into it. (The one you are surrounded by three undead enemies.) The first action I took in the mission, aside from surveying my surroundings for cover and such, was to start to recruit or recall my troops. This specific scenario seemed qui...
