WBC3Linux

WBC3Linux is a native x86_64 Linux port of Warlords Battlecry III based on the 1.03.23 source code.

To play, you need a legally obtained copy of the game and must point the app at that installation on first run.

WBC3Linux is released as a Flatpak containing a stripped binary. The port source code is derived from the original confidential source code and hence cannot be released publicly.

Install

If you do not already have Flatpak installed, follow the official Flatpak setup instructions for your distribution first.

curl --fail --location --remote-name \
	https://github.com/parsiad/WBC3Linux/raw/refs/heads/main/io.github.parsiad.WBC3Linux.flatpak && \
	flatpak install --user ./io.github.parsiad.WBC3Linux.flatpak

Run

If your desktop environment has an application launcher, Warlords Battlecry III should be accessible from there after the install. Otherwise, run:

flatpak run io.github.parsiad.WBC3Linux

On first launch, choose the directory containing the original Warlords Battlecry III data files when prompted.

WBC3Linux is distributed for end-user play only. It does not grant permission to redistribute, decompile, modify, or create derivative works from the original or ported game code.
