Recruits Siege Fix
Recruits Siege Fix changes how Recruits sieges are decided, so attackers must contest one core chunk that the claim owner selects.
What it does
Instead of pressuring a whole claim, a siege is won by capturing a single Core Chunk picked by the claim owner. Attackers have to enter that chunk and contest it to build capture progress. Only units standing in the core chunk count toward the capture, and the progress pauses while the attackers are outside it. If they stay away too long, the siege fails. The mod also adds a clear target marker on the attacker side, so the core chunk is visible during a siege.
Recruits Siege Fix requires Villager Recruits. Install Recruits and SiegeSystemFix in the same Forge 1.20.1 environment. The server and every player need the mod installed. Its files are published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, under All rights reserved, which means it is not open source. The version 1.0.0 file is dated 2026-03-22.
Key features
Core chunk objective
The siege objective becomes one chunk chosen by the owner, replacing the default whole-claim pressure.
Capture progress
Progress builds only while attacking units are inside the core chunk and pauses when they leave it.
Timeout for absent attackers
If attackers stay away past a set time, the siege fails. The pause timeout and capture duration are configurable.
Attacker target marker
A marker on the attacker side shows the core chunk, so attackers no longer have to guess where to push.
Owner-set core chunk
The owner stands on the desired chunk and runs the setcorechunk command, which sets the core for the claim.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners and players who run Recruits sieges on Forge 1.20.1 and want the capture to depend on one chunk rather than the whole claim.
How it compares
Recruits Upgrades is open source under the MIT License and is also a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that runs on client and server, but it extends Recruits rather than changing siege capture. Journey Recruits is open source under the MIT License, is client-side only, and covers 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, so it does not need to be on the server. Territory Energy is also for Forge 1.20.1 on client and server, under the MIT License, and is not open source.
