Version 1.5.x is the latest development version, boasting updated graphics and new exciting features. However, there may be occasional bugs or performance problems in the development versions since heavy changes are taking place all the time. For balanced and stable gaming, it is recommended you use the latest version of the 1.4.x branch. This version is recommended for coders and campaign developers, as well as those who want to preview the future of Wesnoth.  
 
 
With 1.5.12 we have entered the time for heavy testing of the development version. We already believe that it is basically as stable as the 1.4.x stable line and thus name it 1.6rc, also known as "release candidate for 1.6". This version will very soon become the new stable line so you are encouraged to upgrade to it.
