As above :) I think Wesnoth needs a mainline drake campaign. It would be nice to see which one is the most popular.

Wesnoth has a mainline drake campaign, Wings of Victory. It was mainlined in 1.15.0.

I played "Brave Wings", "A Fiery Birth" and "Wings of Victory". All those campaigns are great in my opinion. Voted for "Wings of Victory".

P.S. "Voyage of a Drake: an RPG" is very cool too.

How do you consider A Song of Fire as a Drake campaign?

Unfortunately, i only played A Fiery Birth and Ashen Hearts, the latter mainky because i had good experiences with Kwandulin's campaigns. Unfortunately i cannot say i enjoyed it, and the story is way out there to be even remotely connected to mainline.

I think "best" and "most mainlineable" are different questions

And Wings of Victory got demainlined, renamed Wing of Valour and reworked (I played an original version though, probably should have a look at a new one)

what do you like/dislike about drakes? or... what do you expect from a drake campaign? do U think that drakes and saurians should be allies in a campaign?

Drakes:
Flavour points:
1. Dragonkin. Roar!!!
2. Highly versatile in terms of movement.
3. Powerful during lawful time.
Dislikes:
1. Xenophobic in most cases, unless under the leadership of any dragon.
what do you expect from a drake campaign?
1. Playing as Drakes and not against.
2. All Drake level 1 units available for recruitment with the level 1 Saurians too.
3. Can advance Burners all the way to Armageddon Drake
4. No Level 0 drake recruit as "challenge" factor. That's just low key disapproval from me.
5. Enough Scenarios to actually get a veteran Drake and Saurian army.
6. No recall list rebellion things.
7. Enemies other than orcs/Outlaws/undead. Maybe Dwarves, Loyalists, Dunefolk or Elves. Or, some other faction which can keep up with Drakes.
do U think that drakes and saurians should be allies in a campaign?
Yes, of course. One complements the other. The faction would fall apart without it.

i think that drake campaign against undead may be very bad. simple reason - you will have to save/load a LOT or you will quickly loose your level 2/3 units to adepts. However, drakes against undead with no dark adepts might be usable in a campaign...
