The two limits to the independence to the game engine are:
in the top layer, you still need to meet the requirements that...

I'm thinking of writing another campaign (my third), and want to do a big time jump from my previous campaigns. One fairly unknown time period is the end of the golden era of Wesnoth. I have an idea regarding how the king dies (not peacefully), and building in a few elements from the newer...

Good day to you ladies and gents. So basically i made a character that is unique (in a sense that he is an important character for me at least) so it should have a name and one name only.
