    The Battle of Wesnoth

    So I was looking through the various freeware/shareware games I download frequently and I came across this one. I launched it curious at what it was when I remembered, Hito showed us this game back when the pav was down and we were temporarily at the pav refugee camp at the mag.

    Well, I tried it out seriously for once, and I actually think it's pretty good. For those of you who don't know, it's freeware, has great strategic gameplay and impressive graphics for a freeware game.

    Hito originally suggested we have online matches, but everyone was preoccupied with the lack of pav emotes on the mag no one really responded.

    So here's the idea again, download the stable, 1.2.6 version, and try it out. Maybe we can get together some pav matches.

    And now, the link:

    I think Garr and Caciss may have mentioned this once or twice.

      I'll play, don't be surprised if I start screaming about how the random number generator is bull****, and that my 70% chance to hit attack should not have missed 4 times.

      I honestly have to say that, while sometimes that does **** me off, it's much less of an issue than it seems. I think I just focus on **** luck and pretend that's the reason my terrible tactical decisions failed. I've noticed if I just play intelligently I win far more than I do when taking gambles and hoping lady luck caresses me gently.

        I hate having to lose experienced units so I always end up saving and reloading over and over when I play. I can't even imagine trying to play it on multiplayer.

          IRC, I usually play 60% experiance to level up so you can actually have it happen on one map. And, yeah, we need to do online matches.

            Garr and I were supposed to practice our 2v2.

              You guys would probably destroy me, but I'm up for some matches =P

              I'm new to the multiplayer feature, so if anyone else wants to set up a game and inform me as to how to join I'd be willing to give it a try.

                      I'll join in the fun if one more person does. I know someone who hosts a private Wesnoth server, but he hasn't updated to the new one. So I'm using the old one for now. I really think a tournament would be fun.

                        Why do we need a private server?

                          We don't, but they don't play the dedicated one for some reason so when I update to play with you guys I can't play with them. {:3
