The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

The Battle for Wesnoth is a turn based strategy game originally developed by David White. Released in 2003, TBfW is still receiving patches and updates 20 years after release, showcasing one of the virtues of open source gaming.

Through various campaigns we control a number of notable knights,...

Hi all! It's been requested a few times so I'm putting here some in progress and upcoming projects for the mainline campaign lineup.

Since this era has been changed so extensively I'm going to post a new overview.

Firstly, the point of this era is to give the player choices. In some RPGs the only decision you get to make in your turn is whether to attack or not.

Hello, dear Wesnothers!
It’s me again, opening a thread in this section one last time as I embark on what is likely my final campaign.
This is the sequel to Return from the Abyss . To be honest, RftA was originally meant to be a quick prequel to this one ( :lol: ). Every now and then, I dusted off...

In standard meaning a marksman is defined as a person skilled in shooting.

The Arif line in the Khalifate have marksman on melee attacks, which bugs me a bit. It's not a world-ending problem, but if others agree that it's an issue then we might as well look at how to resolve it.

It seems to me...

Hey, I'd like to animate two units, switching their places, in standart time rate, (which is 200ms)
This code almost works, except the animator:add(u, movement , hit ,{with_bars = false}) part takes 500ms (because some units do have longer animation, which is played over more tiles), resulting in...

Hello!

there's an Eastern Invasion walkthrough in the wiki and an older forum thread for discussing this campaign. The latter is linked in the wiki, but also locked, can't add more recent experience. That's a bit unfortunate, IMHO, as these campaign threads appear to have kind of an official...

Hello !

My story on why I'm getting back to wesnoth after more than 10 years begins with a snarky remark from my best friend.

Hello,
I don’t like that the computer essentially chooses which weapon is best for an attack now. In earlier versions, you had to manually select a weapon and compare the potential battle outcomes using the damage calculation feature. Nowadays, I rarely check the damage calculations because there’s...
