Ageless Era is a compilation of the most popular eras and factions on the add-on server. It is more than an era pack than an era.
The current version of the era is in thread title. It is currently being worked for version 1.18 of Wesnoth.
The most important thing for anybody to know about Ageless...

What is going on with the multiple fake Elf factions? Some units are rather unbalanced as they are just default elves with altered defences. These factions just flood the Ageless Era Add-on while offering little (if any) real alternatives.

Looking forward to the update so I can try again. Thanks for the work you are putting in. Also, I likey the new story, and it does preserve a lot. (And thinking back, it never made sense that the orcish warlord camps in a pristine forest instead of logging all that wood.)
