Battle for Wesnoth 1.7.8-b1
The Battle for Wesnoth is a turn-based strategy game with a fantasy theme.
Build up a great army, gradually turning raw recruits into hardened veterans. In later games, recall your toughest warriors and form a deadly host against whom none can stand! Choose units from a large pool of specialists, and hand-pick a force with the right strengths to fight well on different terrains against all manner of opposition.
Wesnoth has many different sagas waiting to be played out. Fight to regain the throne of Wesnoth, of which you are the legitimate heir... step into the boots of a young officer sent to guard a not-so-sleepy frontier outpost... vanquish a horde of undead warriors unleashed by a foul necromancer, who also happens to have taken your brother hostage... guide a band of elvish survivors in an epic quest to find a new home.
200+ unit types. 16 races. 6 major factions. Hundreds of years of history. The world of Wesnoth is absolutely huge and limited only by your creativity - make your own custom units, compose your own maps, and write your own scenarios or even full-blown campaigns. You can also challenge up to 8 friends - or strangers - and fight in epic multi-player fantasy battles.

Looking forward to the iPhone/iPod Touch version. |

| Learning curve isn't exactly easy, graphics might not be 3d, but certainly has a very very solid game play. |

| This game has hours of game play. Requires strategic thinking (not just build up an army and attack, sometimes you have to run). |

| @SamusAran - You are kidding right? The Wars series has been around since the late 80s in Japan, and even Advance Wars hit the west two years before Wesnoth was released. This game is great though, but it is quite hard to get into. Still can't be free + Open Source + fun though. |
