Dist Fedora Esm H88
The Fedora 22 update for Wesnoth, 2015-6108, addressed critical vulnerabilities that threatened user data and game integrity, urging users to update swiftly for safety

Summary

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.

Fight to regain the throne of Wesnoth, of which you are the legitimate

heir, or use your dread power over the Undead to dominate the land of

mortals, or lead your glorious Orcish tribe to victory against the humans

who dared despoil your lands. Wesnoth has many different sagas waiting to

be played out. You can create your own custom units, and write your own

scenarios--or even full-blown campaigns. You can also challenge your

friends--or strangers--and fight multi-player epic fantasy battles.
