Contains all application configuration settings, like graphic options and key bindings. Some of these settings are indented to be overridable on a per-module bases to allow more faithful recreations of original titles.

Modules and campaigns

See The .module and .campaign file formats article

Modules are large-scale settings. Though intended to represent game remakes (f.i. Bright Portents and the Saga modules are modules implementing Dark Omen and the Myth games in WARTBED) they can of course be totally new games. Modules in turn contains campaigns which are sequences of connected battles within the setting of a module. Modules and campaigns also allow basic customisation of the WARTBED framework, for instance of user interface appearance etc.
