Battle for Wesnoth

The Battle for Wesnoth, or simply Wesnoth, is a free turn-based strategy game designed in June 2003 by David White.

David White based Wesnoth on the Sega Genesis games Master of Monsters and Warsong (also known as Langrisser).[1] He wanted to create a freely-available, open source strategy game that had very simple rules, but had a strong artificial intelligence, and was challenging and fun.[1]

The current stable release of the game is 1.4.5, released on September 2, 2008. The Battle for Wesnoth is cross-platform, so it is available for a variety of different operating systems. Released under the GNU General Public License, The Battle for Wesnoth is free software.
