Battle for Wesnoth

[CapTVK]

These are my remaining forces at the edge of Helcrest...

[General Ludd]

Yeah, that was a fun one.


But, you know, even after playing 2 games against you I don't think we've once fought each other.

[CapTVK]

Now that you mention it....

[Gamecube64]

What time you guys think you'll start another game so I can join in

[General Ludd]

Sometime this weekend, I think? Throw out some times if you want.

1200 CST would be a very good time for me, but I'm very flexible.

Played a game on multiplayer and won I was some naughty orcses and my opponent was a dwarf.

I Didn't take any screenshots, but I can remember what happened well.

We were on a map that was split by rivers running down the center, I immediatly made 3 riders and 2 archers.

I sent the riders out to get villages far away, while my general and the archers got the ones near the castle.

Soon our forces clashed, I had my riders and archers attack while I got a myrmidon 3 trolls 2 thieves and a grunt (I had alot of villages up to the north )

I beat him back and trapped his general, then killed it.

Probably this weekend around the same time as yesterday and the day before. But perhaps I'm drop by to see if there is some action...

The other player also attacked with his general in one of the first waves!?

Good news, Gamecube64 has had his trial by fire.

We've just played our first game on the princess battlefield map. I started out in the SW playing the humans. Gamecube64 took the orcs in the NE.

At the start it was a few scrapes here and there. some won, some lost. The orcs managed to take the bridge near the center and even sent in their general as backup and had to fall back to the south taking more losses.

However, I had launched an amphibious assault with naga's further down the river and sneaked a cavalryman behind the orcish lines. So while the orcs were advancing on my capital I was free to capture villages in his hinterland.

The orcish assault managed to get through the south forest. My fortress just in view. but I launched a counterassault with fresh troops held in reserve. The assault finally stalled and was crushed. The Orcish general had to backtrack to his own fortress while my troops were nipping at heels. Finding his villages gone and his own fortress captured!

The rest, as they say, is history....

Last stand....

He managed to take down a few pink-skins on horsies before he died though

[General Ludd]

If anyone wants to play today, I'll probably be available for a couple games this afternoon in about 2 hours.

[Gamecube64]

I'm gonna have to sit this one out because we are going somewhere.

[CapTVK]

Not this day, (Soccer's on!)

but rest assured General Ludd.


One day we'll meet in a clash that will shake the mighty towers of heaven and hell itself.

[Gamecube64]

I thought you Non-Americans called soccer football... or is that only Aussies?

[General Ludd]

I found someone else to play with today, and boy was I pwned. Emberassing, really.



I think elves are too powerful. I played a 4 player team game and each team had an elf and a non-elf. Both non-elves (myself as drakes and the other as humans) where completely devastated by the opposing elf.
