“The popular strategy game Battle for Wesnoth is now
available in version 1.6. A new mainline campaign called the Legend
of Wesmere was added to spotlight many of the newly integrated
features. Key among them is the ability for armies of connected
gamers to exchange commands.

“The gold standard has also changed so that the carry-over value
from scenario to scenario is now 40% instead of 80%, although it’s
added to the scenario’s starting gold value instead of replacing it
if higher, as in older versions of the game.”
