The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Introduction
Walkthrough in the official wiki is helpful but too generic in order to cater to multiple difficulties and old versions. Therefore, a new and more specific walkthrough is presented in this thread. This walkthrough is based on 3 runs of Heir to the Throne (HttT) on challenging...

XVII Century Project : Eastern Europe at War ( EEaW )

Hello everybody,

I feel honoured to introduce a new add-on to the wesnoth.org community, on behalf of the EEaW team, coming from the Polish BfW fansite - wesnoth.com.pl
We have been working on it since September 2009. Many committed people...

Elvish Dynasty is a highly randomized fantasy kingdom simulator for Wesnoth. It's available for download on the dev (1.7) server.

The premise is that you're an elvish princess and you have to rule your kingdom. How you rule it is up to you...You can be an evil tyrant or a kind-hearted...

Legend of The Far North is basically a rework on SotBE, made for fun.

What has changed?
First things first, the main plot is exactly the same as in original. My rework focuses mainly on dialogue, maps, gameplay and scenario objectives.

Campaign length: only 11 scenarios
Probably the most...

(1) What difficulty level and version of Wesnoth have you played the scenario on?
(2) How difficult did you find the scenario? (1-10)
(3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives?
(4) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline of the scenario?
(5) What were your major...

I am in the process of building a campaign focusing on the foundation of Dwarven Doors, its a semi-spinoff from my previous campaign Reign of the Great Chief. Should be about 6-7 scenarios, 2 of which are mostly done.

Problem is I borrowed and modified a map from Northern Rebirth that pictures...

I've started making a skeletal dragon portrait, hopefully it will be good enough for the mainline. I've made this to show everyone what I'm doing, this is what I've done so far. It's just the outline currently but I will finish it, probably not soon though but depending on how much time i put into...

I'm trying to figure out Wesnoth style, so I tried taking a photo of a terracotta warrior as reference and the proportions of the Elvish Fighter as another reference in order to make a sprite. This is what I came up with. I don't plan on using this in-game, but I want to learn Wesnoth style. What...

On you can Add page from category and Add pages manually but I have no idea how that works.
Suggestion: There should be an example of the expected format on that page.
I tried various things (e.g. TerrainWMl, TerrainWML , Special:Export/TerrainWML), nothing obvious works.

A few weeks ago, I...

Hi everyone! I've got a couple of requests to gather stats for Afterlife Rated 1.18 . As there are 5000+ games already, we can have a decent sample size to judge what's going on (although, as ratings were reset and it's just 5000 raw games, that wouldn't compare to Afterlife 1.16 year's stats)....

Resistances, damage bonuses, XP/hp increase/decrease for stats etc. aren't calculated exactly, they are rounded. With small numbers it can often make a notable difference... Especially in some mods, or game modes like afterlife. Increasing both damages and HP by 10 fixes it. So orcish grunt instead...

I'm glad to present you an updated version of Asheviere's Dogs campaign, which is supposed to be included in the game's 1.20 release!

Learn the violent story of Queen Asheviere's rise to power, and fight by her side as she consolidates power over both her enemies and her allies.

### Key Features...

I have created the campaign called The Bees Journey, in which insects are the protagonists.

The campaign has already completed all scenarios, so the remaining issues are the arts. I am looking for artist to collaborate with.

Most needed are portraits of the bees (queen and worker bees, and...

Older stats of May 2022:

HOW WESNOTH WORKS TO ME !!!

FANTASY, ARCANE & RESISTANCES

Arcane isn't simply a Resistance to me is the backbone of this Fantasy. It represents a SUPERNATURAL (Elves or Trolls) and/or UNNATURAL Creature (Undeads), which implies having NATURAL Beings (Animals/Humans/Orcs), each of this can be...

Yesterday for some reason I completely lost connection, wasn't able to do my moves, but the timer still counted down. After leaving the game, server list wouldn't refresh; it would stay as it was before I joined that game.
Apparently it seems like from the 3rd person view I just disconnected the...

No thread so I post here.

Nifty stuff, even the trees have reflections!

Some tiny quibbles: Would have been cool if the reflections vanish at night. Star and moonlight reflections? Well maybe. Wesnoth doesn't account for the phases of the moon. Well there's an idea for another addon : ) The other...

It's a map for 2 players in. You have to reach with your leaders point on north or wait for death of other human side. Amount of heroes at start for each human side depends of picked difficulty level at game start.

It's available at Wesnoth v1.18.

Well, having played Wesnoth since September, I decided to have a go at coding something, so I made this campaign, titled 'A Vision Blinded.' I began coding on Wesnoth v1.4.6 but continued on v1.4.7 so this should (hopefully) work for the v1.4.x branch.

I've worked on it alone for hmm... less that...

How to make AI in WML understand that some hex on map reached with his leader can give it a win in scenario that is playing by AI. I have a x,y point on map that is important for player side. Human will understand after info at the scenario start and label on map but how make it understand by AI?...

Wesnoth does not accept AI-generated art, this post is an explanation.

I've wrestled with the issues of AI art and what the official Wesnoth policy should be. My basic thinking hasn't changed much from The AI performance has improved since then (sort of ), but the general landscape hasn't changed...

This is the feedback forum for the Legend of the Invincibles singleplayer campaign. If you have played the campaign and have any comments regarding it (bugs, difficulty), feel free to post about it here, I am interested in reading it, even if it is a petty thing. Because of the size of the...

This is a regular maintenance release for the stable 1.18.x series, delivering bug fixes and translation updates. As is the norm for updates to the current stable series, this release is fully compatible with previous 1.18.x versions.

A full list of changes and new features added since version...

Lich --> Ancient Lich

Drake Inferno --> Drake Armageddon

Drake Flameheart --> Fire Dragon

Dwarvish Fighter --> Dwarvish Steelclad & Dwarvish Runesmith --> Dwarvish Runemster --> Dwarvish Arcanister...

My eyesight isn't that great, and I hate having to squint to read the story line, even with a 24-inch screen. If I skip over it, I might miss an important hint. Is it possible to add an option in Display Preferences to allow larger fonts?

This would affect the intro story line, in-scenario text,...

Hello guys,

This modification changes the skin/scale/armour colors of recruits.
It tries to modify the colors in a natural way.
If a option is turned on, the units get the opportunity to change to unique rare morph colors.

Ready Races/Units:
all saurians + UMCs
all drakes except UMCs
Loyalist...

I'd like to experiment with writing a Lua stage that would completely replace the RCA AI recruiting routing (AI_CA_RECRUITMENT). Are there any examples out there of completely or partially overriding AI_CA_RECRUITMENT with Lua? I think I just need a template and then I'd be ready to go.

Thanks!
