Simply stating that I'm tired of compiling Battle for Wesnoth would be an understatement. I HATE compiling it. It feels like I could be writing a book in the time it takes to compile.

I noticed that GetDeb.net has Wesnoth, but the game broken up into several packages: wesnoth, wesnoth-data, wesnoth-music, wesnoth-trow, wesnoth-tsg, wesnoth-ttb, and wesnoth-utbs.

Which of these packages should I install? I want a Wesnoth as feature-full as it would be if I were using the version in the repositories.

What order do I install them in?

All of 'em.

Does it matter what order I install them in?

Yes, but it won't let you install in the wrong order. wesnoth-data will probably have to be the first installed, the wesnoth. After that though, the order shouldn't matter too much.

download all of them to the same folder and do a
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
It will install them all in a row

Btw that getdeb site is great! they have the very last stable!

"sudo apt-get install wesnoth-all"

Will do as it implies.
