Description
> **This is an add-on for [Touhou Little Maid](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/touhou-little-maid) and requires it to run.**
> Requires: [GeckoLib](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/geckolib) · [Superb Warfare](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/superb-warfare) · [SimpleBedrockModel](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/simplebedrockmodel)
# TLM Formation Tactics
Squad management, formation follow, tactical command wheel and Black Hawk airdrop support for **Touhou Little Maid** on Minecraft 1.20.1 / Forge.
## Features
- **Squad manager (F9)** — dynamic teams, per-team rally points, summon / takeover, squad withdrawal, death coordinates.
- **Formation follow** — maids form up around their owner; front/side guards with 4+ maids, follow radius, dispersion when idle, path prediction at speed.
- **Tactical command wheel (F8)** — follow, retreat, guard, focus-fire, marked positions (applies to the active team only).
- **Tactical HUD** — squad status, roles overview, downed/unloaded indicators, logistics status.
- **Black Hawk air support** — deploy a squad by helicopter with rappelling insertion, extract by rope ascent, and *swap deployments*: when you deploy a new team while another is still on the field, the old team boards the same helicopter and flies home.
- **Hard rescue** — if the squad is left behind (death, respawn, dimension change, far teleport with no event), it is force-located across dimensions and teleported back; a periodic reconcile check covers teleports that fire no event.
- **Squad force-loading** — while a squad is deployed, its 3x3 chunks stay loaded (configurable).
- **Friendly-fire protection** — owners and same-owner maids are protected from melee, arrows, crossbows, tridents, bullets and danmaku.
- **Bilingual** — all interface, item and message text is available in Chinese and English (in-game language setting).
