The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

I noticed many unit descriptions mention the faerie, like here in the description for elves:

… their magic has some strong connection to the faerie …

What are the faerie? Is it simply a magical force, or something else? Are they a race, as in AtS and IftU? If so, what do they look like? If it is...

There are 3 different eras: default (contains 9 factions), default extended (15 factions but less balanced) and AoH (15 factions + 1 fun Assassin faction, lvl3 leaders and lvl2 recruitables)

i gues anybody could pitch changes on the map editor on this thread but im personally curious as to why not to make trees, villages, and embellishments be placed independent to what the (background) terrain is, every time im placing an orcish village on green grass it just looks weird because its...

May I have everyone's attention please. Say hello to:-

Hello, I am inferno8 and this thread is about my era. Era of Magic has been in development since 2007 and at the moment contains 8 playable factions with fully animated units (more than 280!) and tons of special effects. The aim of EoMa is to make the most visually appealing and nice to play UMC...

As always, I'm only human and oversights are probably more than likely, honest mistakes probably not so much but still can happen and I do realize that a lot of the stuff might seem weird but well I'm...

我一時的興趣，利用wesnoth裡的資源，用gimp的圖像編輯器製作出幾張壁紙，可以拿來應用在遊戲的戰役上
當然，我希望也有些志同道合的人，來繪製或製作wesnoth相關的壁紙，然後發布在下面的留言區吧！

順便放一下其他人在其他分享平台上分享壁紙的網路鏈結:

As a temporary interest, I used the resources in wesnoth and used the image editor of gimp to make a few wallpapers, which can be used in the battle of the game

I used to play this game on Mac a LOT, but this is my first attempt since switching to Windows nearly four years ago. I'm playing 1.17.6 on the hardest level, and it's kicking my ass.

I'm on turn 22 having killed off the first two sets of subsidiary undead forces, and I'm about to trip the meeting...

ARRPGA is an add-on with two modes of gameplay.
The first gameplay mode is a single RPG scenario, known Classic (AI DM), which pits a party of heroes controlled by a maximium of 4 players against an AI-controlled Dungeon Master who plays enemies and NPCs. This mode of gameplay features premade...

This is from LotI, .../utils/chapter9_utils.cfg

And that's fine, but when I don't have enough gold I'd still like to know how much I'd need. I tried inserting this between the two option blocks first, and it's as close as I've gotten:

This works, and it's close. The problem is it's a...

EDIT 2022-05-22: Reopening, this is now valid for BfW 1.17/1.18

EDIT 2021-05-15: Closing this because time is up. More would have been nice, but reality is what it is....

Im making a unit for my umc campaign but im a beginner at this, i already got some advice on the hands and shadow so i updated her but she still needs a sword, i want her to have a long sword on her right hand sort of resting on her shoulder but as i said i don't have a lot of experience with this,...

I don't have any experience modding Wesnoth or using WML, just a bit of copywriting for Dunefolk awhile back.

I wondered what the folks here would think of Vision using remaining MP instead of total potential MP instead. Yes it would slow games down a lot and force players to play very cautiously,...

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...

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...

Each time a translatable string is changed in mainline content (code for UI or WML/lua for content) the corresponding translations in all languages become fuzzy . It highlights that people needs to check the translation again to see if it is valid.
It is up to the translation team to remove the...

Each time side 1 captures a village, I want to count how many villages side 1 currently has. I can't keep a running total myself, because I won't get events when side 1's villages are recaptured by other sides. So, the idea is to store locations based on the terrain type *^V* , count the hexes that...

Hi everyone!

This is the reference topic for the single player campaign:  The Garardine Ascendancy

Hello,

About... a month or so now I started working on french translations for the UMC Project Ethea (Invasion from the Unknown, After the Storm and their shared Naia library). As a bit of history, AtS and Naia, though they were largely imperfect, already had working french translations when I...

According to wiki, new input should replace the previous one. It did not work on my case. Could you please help me understand how it works? Is is possible to retract the without this facet/path thing?

The initial setup:

Later in the scenario:

It doesn't seem to work, i.e., units are still...

Has it ever bothered you that recalling level zero units costs 20 gold?

Well, this addon modifies the recall cost for level zero units. The default is set to 10 gold, but that can be adjusted with a slider.

But wait, there's more! What's the use of the discount without a few extra level zero...

I was translating and...

Just what a nonsense is that
