Great news ! … and apart from the good publicity:
it´s so refreshing to see BfW being properly cherished and honored in the "outerworld",
unlike the kind of frustrating – imo unjustified ! – thinking / mood on the forums lately.
Comparing "our" game with the latest, surely estimable competitors
("Tales of Maj’Eyal", for example, is quite inspiring regarding faction naming):
I appreciate the "nostalgic", much more heart-warming graphical interface of Wesnoth even more,
and hope it will never become a modern 3D kingdom.
Wesnoth for ever !
