Wesnoth is a freeware (free to download and play) turn-based strategy PC-game that has a mixed reception from fa/tg/uys.

It is universally agreed it's /tg/ related because the game is set in a fantasy world not too dissimilar with Generic Fantasy Land #3 (Elves are gay and are in woods, Dwarves are grumpy dicks in stone, Orcs are retarded and fighty and Humans are EVERYWHERE!

The Good

  • It's free.
  • It's balanced.
  • The modding community is big, with the total mod content far greater than the original content.
  • It has RPG elements within it's turn-based structure. (ZOMG! they can LEHVEL!)
  • It's free.

The Bad

  • The RNG (the random chance hitter thing) can be really annoying and completely ridiculous.
  • The graphics are shitty. But they're not meant to be great so that's no issue.
  • It's slow like every other turn-based game.
  • Level design flaws. Blah Blah open the scenario's .cfg file and tailor it to your liking. No more loyal peasant issues.

BUT IT'S FREE SO STOP COMPLAINING! IT'S NOT LIKE YOU BOUGHT THE DAMN THING! If you are so good at design edit the campaign and redist it.

Hell, see for yourself what it's like; http://www.wesnoth.org
