The most popular strategy game on Mac OS X
… More EditThe Battle for Wesnoth is a turn-based strategy game with a fantasy theme.
Build up a great army, gradually turning raw recruits into hardened veterans. In later games, recall your toughest warriors and form a deadly host against whom none can stand! Choose units from a large pool of specialists, and hand-pick a force with the right strengths to fight well on different terrains against all manner of opposition.
Wesnoth has many different sagas waiting to be played out. Fight to regain the throne of Wesnoth, of which you are the legitimate heir... step into the boots of a young officer sent to guard a not-so-sleepy frontier outpost... vanquish a horde of undead warriors unleashed by a foul necromancer, who also happens to have taken your brother hostage... guide a band of elvish survivors in an epic quest to find a new home.
200+ unit types. 16 races. 6 major factions. Hundreds of years of history. The world of Wesnoth is absolutely huge and limited only by your creativity - make your own custom units, compose your own maps, and write your own scenarios or even full-blown campaigns. You can also challenge up to 8 friends - or strangers - and fight in epic multi-player fantasy battles.

Very addicting
Why Battle for Wesnoth doesn't appear as a Linux game too?
I play it almost all days!
the best!
One of the best free games I have ever played. So fun to play with friends.
A great free game, and soon available on the iPhone/iPod touch as well!
why this page is lacking info,that wesnoth runs on linux? it seems impossible to add this information
Addictive turn based game. The story, the campaigns are very interesting. Graphics are simple but nice.
AWESOME game! And rarely I say awesome in upper caps! I love this game. It is always being actively developed, cross-plataform, and free, with no ads.
Multiplayer mode is awesome, just wish there were more options to customize gameplay.
Stinking awesome game
Nice free turn based strategy. Plenty of campaigns to keep you busy, many of which keep to the 'Wesnoth universe' story line. Or you can just get stuck into the multiplayer.
Great game.. Cross platform.. Tons of hours of gameplay.. FREE!
Good game play and add-on scenarios - a damn good game for what is essentially free, commendations to the development team for a great game.
I will give this a go. I havent played TBS for years, but started in 1983 with chaos on the spectrum, then progressed to Blade's releases - Laser Squad and Lords of Chaos. This looks quite similar. :)
Not a bad game persay but could get some graphic improvements.
Gratuit, open source, petit mais costaud :)
