Anyone who wants to try 0ad at it's current development stage, if you're a Linux user, you can try the 0ad-0.0.27-svn-unstable AppImage
There's no need to install any packages or do any building. After you download the image, just use `chmod +x <filename>.AppImage`
Then you can run it like any other executable:
./<filename>.AppImage
There's one more than one image on the download page; just grab the most recent.
Before running the AppImage, you may want to back up your current 0ad config directory:
cp -a ~/.config/0ad ~/.config/0ad.bak
