1.19 Roadmap

This page is for consolidating and planning when new features and fixes are intended to land in the 1.19 development branch. The release schedule for Development releases can be found here (link is to the 1.17 page, might change for 1.19).

Instructions

Place the feature or fix you intend to implement within the section of the point release that you intend to have it implemented by, as well as your forum username in parenthesis after the feature description. The point release something is planned to be released with is not set in stone, and can be updated as needed depending on the circumstances.

This is just an outline currently, with some point releases for the early, middle and late parts of the branch.

Note on Single-Player Campaign Reworks

We have some campaign reworks planned and in-progress.

In-progress: The South Guard, The Deceiver's Gambit (DM replacement), The Rise of Wesnoth In-progress but slower development: Legend of Wesmere (reworked to SP entirely), Heir to the Throne (grand overhaul) Planned but no progress yet: Angel of Ashes (AoA) (Ashievere-centric campaign)

The first three (TSG, TDG and TRoW) might have higher chances of getting into 1.19.x cycle before any of the others. The other three might be going into 1.21.x so have been mentioned here just to prepare for an unprecedented development allowances (more assistance in coding, accelerated development speed, etc).

If you have inquiries on the reworks, contact SP rework team leaders (forums/discord): Nemaara/Yumi (TSG, TRoW, AoA), Dalas (TDG, HttT), Lord-Knightmare (LoW-rework).
