Techtrees

Techtrees are the largest type of mod for Glest, but also the most expansive and elaborative. A techtree is a full set of factions with their own resources and damage types. Inside a game, all players must use the same techtree, but can use different factions which belong to it. Magitech is an example of a techtree, and contains the Magic and Tech factions. Because techtrees contain many units, upgrades, resources, and more, they are the most work for modders, but also catch the eye of players more than any other type of mod.

Engine Differences

Techtrees (and by inheritance, Factions), vary the most per engine, as that's where most changes take place. GAE has the most extra features for techtrees, since it offers new gameplay elements such as guarding, emanations, etc, whereas MegaGlest has unit particle systems (which are also available in GAE). Due to this, mods made specifically for GAE or MegaGlest will not work on regular Glest. Similarly, GAE mods do not work on MegaGlest, however, GAE currently supports all MegaGlest mod features.
