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.
