While I agree with this, a minor note of caution: we probably don't want to casually make *major* continuity changes to campaigns, either. especially not one as central as HttT. That too would disrupt the player's sense of a stable overarching history. The Great Retconning will work because the changes to HttT don't affect its thematic core. Turin persuaded me by doing an excellent job of describing and justifying minimal, sensible changes to HttT and the mainline history; I hope anybody who wants to retcon it in the future will be held to a similarly high standard. I'd also like to suggest that one of the criteria we use in deciding which campaigns to take mainline should be what they do for the emergent history of the Wesnoth world. I think a campaign such as LoW, which shares a character with other mainline campaigns and ties into the well-developed part of the history, gains additional value by so doing. -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/">Eric S.
