The great open source classic. Did you play it? How many different systems have you installed it on over the years?
I can honestly say i’ve been playing it for so long i don’t even remember what all i’ve played it on. I’ve even had it on phones and such.
The rich modding and active fan community really help with longevity, too, and i wish more games would take a cue from that.
The emphasis on 50% hit rates (60% is “accurate”), leads to a very swingy game. Wesnoth has many attacks in most cases, but Dwarven Thundersticks only have one (massive) shot, as well as Trolls with 2x attacks.
The game is designed around this level of luck, but I wish the game designers opted for less variance.
Still, its a good game, with well designed units handling a myriad of different roles.
I tried it once, but the scaling on my monitor was pretty bad. Maybe I should give it another try.
