Single player scenario: "Forward They Cried"

[Lord-Knightmare]

At last I was able to finish this novice level scenario I know this is an old add-on, still it is very unique comparing to other campaigns / scenarios. Thanks for maintaining it!

Easiest UMC to maintain actually

In case you find it hard, watch the replay to see how what the general strategy is. Suffering heavy losses and being disadvantaged is what the original scenario designer wanted for the Scenario.

Are you going to be updating the version on the 1.14 server, too?

A backport might bring about errors or complications. However, I shall try it out and see if I can bring v1.0.4 to the 1.14.x server as well.
For starters, I have to revert the type changes for the Naga guards. Ringcaster and Ophidian are not in 1.14.x.

I think I've seen them in other UMC for 1.14 though

Of course, it would be possible to add those units by copying all the unit files into the add-on itself. But keep in mind, this is supposed to be a simple single scenario - e.g., it might discourage people from playing it if they have to download a 10-megabyte add-on just for one scenario. It may be better to wait until version 1.15/1.16 to add that feature.

v1.0.4 has been successfully updated on the 1.14.14 add-on server. The only change has been reverting the Naga units back to their initial types.

replay from maintainer:

Wesnoth 1.14.14 (Steam version) / Windows 10
Note: Not sure what happened between the 1.14 and 1.15 AI but this was even easier in 1.14.14 than Wesnoth 1.15.7

#ifver WESNOTH_VERSION would have been handy here.
