Mods/List
Glest is fully modable, though when players refer to a "mod", they generally mean a faction or techtree. A techtree is a full set of factions with their own resources, damage types, etc. You can only use factions that all belong to the same tech tree in a game (eg: Magitech). A faction is the team of units that a player can control, and defines the units, upgrades, how they work, etc (eg: Tech). Installing Mods varies based on the type of mod and engine, and mods can utilize engine specific content. For example, Military uses GAE only functions such as guarding and emanations. This page is just a list of all Techtrees, Factions, and Mod Compilations (which include at least one faction).

- Download: Direct link is now outdated, download the latest Vbros Pack 1 instead.
- Notes: Part of the Vbros Pack 1
- Additional notes: The Glest engine does not support units placed or moving on water. This mod very cleverly works around that limitation through the use of custom maps and tilesets - faction, maps and tilesets form a whole that work together to form this illusion. More recently, GAE (Glest Advanced Engine) brought support of water units on standard water tiles in standard maps.
