Thirdlife RTS
Thirdlife RTS turns a survival world into a small real time strategy battlefield, where players build castles and towers and command troops on a map they prepare themselves.
What it does
Players choose one of two factions, humans or piglins, and a color, then build a small battle map and start playing. Each faction has its own workers, melee units, ranged units, magic units and tanks. Battles are minimalistic and follow the look of older real time strategy mods, with a tiny castle, towers and waiting troops on each side.
Setup begins with crafting a few items: the Warmonger's Manual, the Control Crystal, the Command Staff, the Builder's Mallet and the Game Master. The manual holds a short guide and lets the player select a faction and color and place maps. Seven premade maps are included. Players can also prepare a custom battlemap with blocks, and gold must be placed near a gold mineshaft so units can be trained.
The mod is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.19.2, with the 0.2.0 file as the latest build. It is server-side only, so players join without installing it, and the code is released under All rights reserved.
