Learn how to play with and against every faction by following the links below to the appropriate page. You will find general faction strategies as well as unit-by-unit analysis of how to play against each of the 6 "Default Era" factions (including "mirror" matches).

All strategies make the assumptions of a 1v1 game on a balanced map [any two player map aside from Cynsaun Battlefield] with default map settings on the latest version of Wesnoth (currently 1.10 for the stable branch).

Individual pages for each faction

How to play Drakes
How to play Knalgans
How to play Loyalists
How to play Northerners
How to play Rebels
How to play Undead

Individual threads for each faction:

How to play Drakes
How to play Knalgans
How to play Loyalists
How to play Northerners
How to play Rebels
How to play Undead

If you have any comments or suggestions make them in the appropriate faction thread, or simply put them here. This is currently a work in progress, so some of the pages and matchups aren't written out yet, but will come with time. I appreciate your patience.

+Learn how to play with and against every faction by following the links below to the appropriate page. You will find general faction strategies as well as unit-by-unit analysis of how to play against each of the 6 "Default Era" factions (including "mirror" matches).
-This is a series that hopes to teach players how to play with and against every faction. Link to the appropriate "How to play..." page according to what faction you are playing (or want to study) and you'll find general strategies for that faction as well as specific unit-by-unit strategies on how to play against each of the 6 Default factions (including "mirror" matches).

-All strategies are given with the assumption of a 1v1 game on a balanced map, with the settings being 100 gold (map dependent), 70% XP, 2gpv, and fog on. Another assumption is that the game is being played on the latest version of Wesnoth (currently 1.4.3 for stable and 1.5.2 for development). The tactics will be similar under many different settings, but if your version is different the tactics may be drastically different, so keep that in mind.
