Anyone else play Wesnoth?

My add-ons all work fine. I can't beat them so far, but that is another matter

How did you get the add-ons to work or did they just automatically work?

Yeah, like Swiss watches, the same way as the campaigns you get with the original download. I have no idea what your problem could be, but the Wesnoth forum has a large tech assist section and it is active. Give it a try?

Just installed it and played the tutorial and the first two mission of the first campaign. Fun Game ! Reminds me a lot of Fire Emblem (which from what I've seen so far is still slightly superior). too bad ranged attacks don't mean you can attack from a hexagonal away though, archers feel kind of useless so far.

EDIT: Do any of the included or extra campaign allow you to play the bad guys ? Orcish or undead invaders ? That could be a whole lot of fun...

If you guys have the development version (1.3 something) instead of the stable version, there are a few "bad guy" campaigns already installed, even though they're just the add-ons.

Anyone else notice that more experience my units get, the less damage they seem to do and more they seem to die?

ah nope, the exp they get the more damage they do, although the enemy targets them first so they die easy if you send them alone or poorly supported but with a lot of rookies around them they do tons of damage , just let the vetran damage em to death and let the rookie finish them off.

In my head I know that, it just feels like that dang little orc "has better odds" against my level 2 Marksman while he routinely is slain by my level 1 archer.

(..) with a lot of rookies around them they do tons of damage , just let the vetran damage em to death and let the rookie finish them off.

That's it, if the rookies are supported by a Captain (Elvish, Desert or otherwise) they do 25% more damage at any time of the day, and this really works out. Cap'n smacks 16 points off the orc, rookie No 1 scores another 6 and rookie No 2 makes the kill and gets the XP. Repeat dose until another Captain (or Hero) is born.

EDIT
What I find really frustrating is one of those rounds where none of your muppets really hits an enemy. You surround a troll with six of your own and none of them lands a single hit..
Aarghh!
