Several of our mainline campaigns are in the works for upgrades at the moment, which includes adding characters and enhancing existing scenarios. We are looking for more artwork to supplement these upgrades, including the following:
We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay . While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...

I think it is long past time I got around to trying to write this. I've seen so many people attempt to make factions that are unaware of basic principles and it is becoming frustrating to me. The objective of this guide is to explain some of the basic principles of faction and era design for new...

Factions of Wesnoth

Future plans:

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...
Recently Bob made a new spin on A New Land which used generated terrain extensively. I'm currently hovering around 95% CPU on turn 30 with just a small 30 unit army. Now I realize the number of units was not causing Wesnoth to overclock my little Lenovo.
Vyncyn Rashy Era is on the wesnoth 1.18 addon-server. It contains 15 factions with mostly selfmade art.
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)

Welcome to the Obscured Folklore Era. As it suggests this era is touching mainline lore and with the idea of expanding it. All it needs is testing. This is the first time I am making a add-on so advice or tips are welcome. I plan on uploading it this 6/9/2018

Hey, everybody! I'm creating an era called the Lonely Era which I've just made available for download on the add-ons server. Similar to the Ageless Era, it compiles other eras and factions; but on the contrary, it targets the older, smaller, and isolated factions and eras. Larger and more-popular...
Hello, this this is the feedback and bug report thread for my era ANLEra
It takes the macros found in the mainline scenario A New Land , and adds more factions, such as Elves, Dwarves, Orcs, Outlaws, Undead and Drakes.
It is on the 1.12.x add-ons server.
I hope you like it! :)
Some of you may have noticed that over the last few months several faction ideas have been proposed on this board and partially implemented before being abandoned either due to neglect, or lack of a playable platform.
Some of the factions were not viable, others are little more than...
The Era of Myths is now on the 1.12 add-ons server!
Please report any bugs, errors, glitches, graphical, sound-wise, balance-wise, or any other comments you think would help improve this era. There are many places to improve, I just haven't found them all yet: help me do so!

I made a tool in the form of a web page that allows you to easily create your own era, factions and custom units, giving a lot of ease when waiting to make you custom faction with the default game sprites.
