What is the Battle for Wesnoth?

The Battle for Wesnoth is an open source, turn-based strategy game with a high fantasy theme. It features both single-player and online/hot-seat multiplayer combat.
#BattleforWesnoth v1.19.18 has been released! This has a couple major campaign changes, with both the new Dusk of Dawn campaign being added as a short Novice difficulty Troll campaign as well as the heavily revised Heir to the Throne being added.

Special mention to Wesnoth Modders Guild member "TheWitcher" for finishing the Quenoth Elves SP campaign “Through Veiled Eyes” and this time, on the hardest difficulty.
