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,...
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list.
Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize other’s...
I was writing a MP Campaign for me and my girlfriend, until she broke up with me. Now, my touch of love has gone, and I need help with the writing the messages. I wanted to do it myself, but couldn't...
The start is on a sunset over a beach, were the 2 main characters (the 2 lovers) are in a...
history on the origins of the orc and found nothing. So I have weaved this tale in my head to explain not how they were created but how they became fierce warmongers. I base my tale on my simple conception of the mythic creature and attempt to give my version of its existence in the Wesnoth...
I don't know if I posted this in the right forum or not, but...
I've been a devoted fan of Wesnoth for years. It's true that there are long stretches of time in which I cannot play due to attending college. But Wesnoth captured my imagination and never fails to hold my attention.
I am making a new campaign named A Second Sun (Not yet on the add-on server)
It deals with the story of creation of a new Sun called Naia in the future. I have a few theories on how the new Sun will Operate but am unable to decide which one is the best one.
As has been clear from UtBS that Naia is...
approaching movement. The sentries patrolled the walls with their usual diligence, while anticipating the time they would be relieved of duty . This night seemed unpretentious to the city, for although the evil lay well out of sight, it was all to present.
Hello, people who are much more experienced at Wesnoth than me.
I've been sitting on an idea for a campaign storyline for some time now, (Actually, since I played Under the Burning Suns) and figured that if I was going to put up a plot for a campaign, this would be the place.
Hi everyone!! Today I've started a short thriller story for Year 9 English that I am tying in with Wesnoth fan-fic. I'm just hoping to get a little critiscm on it (I'm an00b at English, so it won't be like J.R Tolkien :) So here is the first section, telling the story of dark sorcery and a...
The introduction of my in-development campaign, Fire's Whispering , set in the end of the era often called post-wesnoth .
The sun threw its glittering rays over the prospering city of Weldyn, reflecting on roofs still dripping from the last rain shower. Weldyn's streets, pulsing with life, were...
:hmm: I'm guessing this is the right place to put forth my concern...
I wanted to point out that the Giant Spider's .cfg file is titled 'Cave_Spider', whereas the unit's name and id are 'Giant_Spider'. I was hoping this would be rectified in 1.8 with the unit's new graphics, but I guess it was...
Hello all. I just released the Wesnoth-Compiled PDF Books, containing 360 pages of information on Wesnoth. Everything, like Strategies, tips, Stories and everything you can find online about Wesnoth are compiled together in a fashioned, organized and simple way, in the forms of two PDF Books....
Hello. I am a newcomer in the world of Wesnoth. (Actually, my last post, the first one, was a complete mess. Sorry for that). Now, I saw that there are many Wesnoth strategies etc., available for us, in the Internet. So, I collected them from the...
Awhile back I started writing a story based on the South Guard campaign; it didn't get that far because I'm still figuring out how the game works (and, obviously, I have other things to do as well) but I finished the part that covered the campaign's introduction--about how Deoran got sent south....
First off, let me say that my RPG campaign relies heavily on the storyline, so if you want to be able to enjoy it to its fullest when I finish it, I suggest you do not read this. I'm looking for critique on the actual writing from competent Wesnoth writers, and on the storyline in general from...
I'm planning on starting a campaign, I have pretty much the characters/plot/everything done (Thanks whoever wrote that handy guide on campaign TODO's :D ) , but I'm having a _lot_ of trouble about where to settle my campaign.
It will be about a bunch of exiles/outlaws/mages living their own lives...
The problem is, I have never been very creative with simple things. The only problem I have at this point in time is names...
I already have all the plot (more or less). So right now, I just need some good dwarven names (around 5-10 is all I need for the whole story).
I've noticed during my time on the Wesnoth forums that some artists/unit designers run into trouble naming their sprites, and eventually end up using either a name that has already been used by another unit or is only a slight deviation from another unit's name. Hence I was wondering if it would be...
I hope this is the right place to post this, I want feedback on a proposed storyline for a campaign.
Special thanks go to Zarel who's interesting discussion on Saurain and Naga biology prompted me to reconsider giving up on this campaign. I am now resolved that at the very least I will write the...
I was planning to write a few bits for the pre-wesnoth history (and yes i avoided any religion :) unless your treat fairies as divine, but then they're already there so it's too late) and so was looking through the gathered lore on the wiki to make it possibly consistent. Of course it was...
As some of you might know, I've been writing the story and dialog for the Add-on campaign Fall of Wesnoth. I don't know if this is the appropriate forum, but as this thread deals purely with writing issue, I posted it here instead of in the Scenarios and Campaigns forum. If this is the wrong place...
Hello fellow Wesnothonians! I had an idea to create a UMC about some geographic component of the Great Continent, and, while keeping in mind that I haven't played all of the campaigns, Glyn's forest caught my attention. It seemed to have very little information connected to it, which is a very good...
new to the forums, but i have spent some time surfing around now, & as a writer, i'm looking for 3 specific things:
1. the complete history of the wesnoth universe, which i have found parts of in various places & mostly on the wiki, but i can't seem to find a start page or hub/portal that provides...
I'm currently thinking about a campaign on Drakes. Drakes are not standard fantasy lore, and trying to get some information on them is a bit tough, since alot of things are either not fleshed out in Wesnoth, or do contradict themself. Trying to pin some properties on their society with a bottom up...
This book is a collection of wisdom on the disc of Reilan, one of the most misterious known arkan artefacts. A great many speculations on the nature of the disc have been made, but the true character remains in the dark. There was once a time when every mage...
I've been working since a while ago on a campaign that tells the story of the dwarves acsension from the underdark and of their first war with the elves.
Anyway, as nobody did anything about this particular time Wesnoth history I'm practically inventing the wheel. So far I have thought mostly about...
Even if the Saurian units don't need their descriptions rewritten, as a race they have no general description. Considering the pages that are written on other races, I think they deserve at least a paragraph or two, so I'm going to try and start writing it. Suggestions appreciated, especially since...
Let me first point out that English is not my native language,
I made this in my spare time and I think it could be promising.
This is my first time writing a fan fiction, so please bare with me and correct me with any mistakes you should encounter,
Thank you.
