Mainline campaign inclusions?
I think I asked this, or a related question before.
A few add-ons I always thought could be included into the mainline campaigns, such
as the one with Grogg or whatever the name of the troll was. I assume it may not be
trivial to add more campaigns to the mainline, due to maintainers. Is there some kind
of "necessary pre-conditions" for campaigns to be considered for inclusion into the
mainline? Because the thing is that some of the add-ons are really epic, whereas the
mainline campaigns are not quite as interesting; but I also understand that not
all add-ons can be included either, due to lore-problems, or sheer size and volume
to maintain (especially when the authors are no longer active). I reckon smaller
and shorter campaigns should be more easily "integrable" though, so this thread
is sort of an attempt to get some feedback on what people would have to consider
for mainline inclusion.

You can read this and find out what the campaign needs to have to be of mainline quality: https://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=16233
Campaigns centered around Dunefolk and Drakes might be given higher preference.

Re: Mainline campaign inclusions?
Weeell not to advertise my own campaigns, but Soldier of Wesnoth features the Dunefolk heavily - plus it weaves together a lot of other mainline campaigns and characters. I actually asked some folks what it'd need to be mainlined; I don't even remember what I was told, but then I went on a looong wesbreak so I can't complain it never got a chance at mainlining T.TLord-Knightmare wrote: ↑December 11th, 2020, 1:27 pm You can read this and find out what the campaign needs to have to be of mainline quality: https://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=16233

Soldier of Wesnoth sorely needs a little updating, though... Plus I need to speak with the guy who was maintaining it. Need to thank him for taking care of it while I was away ^^''

Neat I'll try this out. Does this use the 1.15 ish Dunefolk? or Khalifate?

It uses a rather old version of the Khalifate (like I said, it desperately needs updating ^^''), and they're antagonists rather than player faction...Computer_Player wrote: ↑February 5th, 2021, 2:39 amrevansurik wrote: ↑February 4th, 2021, 6:33 amWeeell not to advertise my own campaigns, but Soldier of Wesnoth features the Dunefolk heavily - plus it weaves together a lot of other mainline campaigns and characters.
