They've added new classes for rogue, priest, and paladin, as well as hero classes for high-level players. There's a few new races as well, such as trolls and gnomes.

Re:After the freecraft incident? by hibiki_r · 2003-08-26 04:45 · Score: 5, Informative

You seem to be confusing freecraft, a RTS pretty similar to Warcraft II, to bnetd, an open-source battle.net server.

It is pretty likely thta bnetd, despite having legit uses, was in some way hurting Vivendi's bottom line. However, I don't see how freecraft can hurt their bottom line at all. What do they gain by killing a Linux freeware game?
