Lovely little era with elementals, unicorns, flying metal birds and more. Made by fmunoz very long ago, it's units have been later used in Era of Myths to form "elementals" faction, and from there eventually copied to multiple aggregate eras. I think that tarnished it's atmosphere quite a bit

Inspired by the Path of Summoner, this era uses the same scheme of factions composed of 2 magical schools, uses PoS's sprites and some unit design. What it's got more is combined-element units, modest spellcasting system, summoning units anywhere and above all it's more balanced and fun.

Hello there. The purpose of this page is to promote some of the visual mods & add-ons I have contributed to.
I also made a bunch of unused unit sprites, message me if you think you could use some for your add-on.

Krotop's expansion of the lovely 'Path of Summoner' era created by Wesnoth's founding artist Fmunoz. It adds mixed-element units, a very modest spell-casting system, and summoning units anywhere instead of standard recruiting from keep.

Visual mods

old graphics tweaks

Here are patches that will restore some graphical aspects of older Wesnoth... In particular, the much more atmospheric trees, hills and mountains of versions 1.0.2 and earlier There have been many graphical atrocities committed against the people of Wesnoth. I might add some more tweaks later.
