Reboot Game Modding Workshop Tutorial and Guide

In this workshop, we will be creating addons for Battle for Wesnoth. We will be focusing on creating new units and factions, although you can create maps and scenarios if you want to (I suspect you won’t have time to create a campaign).

Battle for Wesnoth has excellent resources for modding (see http://wiki.wesnoth.org/Create), and this document will refer to them as needed.
