Minecraft 1.20.1 | Forge 47.4.10 | Beta 0.10.66

Welcome to Illager Expedition!

Illager Expedition expands Minecraft with organised military factions, armed vehicles, missile systems, military factories, fortresses, engineering workshops, occupation mechanics and large-scale warfare.

Illagers and Guard Villagers are the two central factions. Both have access to specialised military equipment, including tanks, transport vehicles, artillery, radar systems and anti-ballistic missile launchers.

The goal is a living military world where villages can be defended, conquered and developed into fortified settlements with functioning infrastructure.

Beta Testing Notice

Illager Expedition is currently in BETA and is not guaranteed to be stable.

Known or possible issues include:

• Vehicles becoming stuck or overlapping.

• Incorrect crew positions or missing engineers.

• Structures failing to generate or place.

• Factory workers failing to complete tasks.

• Military AI and navigation errors.

• Missile targeting or interception problems.

• Incomplete animations or sound effects.

Future Development

Ongoing development focuses on improving faction AI, vehicle durability, missile defence, automated factories, military logistics, village engineering, construction reliability, maintenance animations and overall stability.

The goal is to create two believable military factions capable of fighting, defending, building and operating their own infrastructure.
