Download the development version and see! The artwork has advanced a lot over the past year--particularly in the number of portraits, and you will notice some new features--notably, planning mode.

Devs came up with some balancing formulae, but they keep it a secret ;) the discussion on it died out a little. Rather the usual - constant shortage of artists for UMC, even less for mainline.
Oh we've had a nice little tournament to try out some maps. The result was that now I can brag all about that the hardest opponent in Wesnoth isn't the guy you play against, but the RNG

Really? It felt like we had a flood of new mainline artists in 2010. So much good stuff.

You might want to check out Neki's YouTube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/brutalwesnoth
It's really entertaining and you can learn a lot there (depending on your level of expertise, of course). And you won't miss balance discussions, I promise. ;-)

Being an on/off again player, I took this advice and watched the most recent match last night and LMAO. Even my roommate who hasn't tried Wesnoth had a few good laughs.

There's this ongoing tournament atm I heard there's lot of good players :). It's all played on new maps.

I think the Neki is casting these games too.
