Fight to regain the throne of Wesnoth, of which you are the legitimate heir, or use your dread power over the Undead to dominate the land of mortals, or lead your glorious Orcish tribe to victory against the humans who dared despoil your lands. Wesnoth has many different sagas waiting to be played out. You can create your own custom units, and write your own scenarios or even full-blown campaigns. You can also challenge your friends or strangers and fight
multi-player epic fantasy battles.

@Raziel

That's correct.

@ikir

Yes, it (v1.2.2) is the latest stable release.

The OS4 version is mostly compiled and ready. I just need to apply a few changes, do a little testing and then upload to OS4Depot.

Unfortunately I'm not near my A1 at the moment so you will have to wait a few days (should be up before the end of next week though).
