Wikipedia, two weeks ago, after a search for turn-based strategy games.
Wesnoth is awesome btw, and I've already turned my best friend on to it; we enjoy playing against the computer in co-op.

Not yet . . . I want to play through the campaigns and get a feel for the maps and units first. Then, later, I can unlearn all the bad lessons I learn against the questionable AIcobra wrote:Have you ever played online?

Found out when my brother installed the Linux Game Program on my laptop, then he showed me the billion games, then I found wesnoth.
Really old version, it had the old main screen music, and a picture of Konrad holding a sword at a cliff in the background

Re: How did you find out about Wesnoth?
I discovered Wesnoth back in 2004, from browsing the Civilization Fanatics' forums. 
I just recently got back into playing Wesnoth, after having had no Internet access for 14 months.

Re: How did you find out about Wesnoth?
It's nice to know that after 14 months without internet, this is the first game you come back to play.
I found Wesnoth through a search for free TBS games. It came up with the Wikipedia article in which Wesnoth is first under Open-Source games. That was under version .8 or so, and I was hooked.
