[ZetaGlest](https://zetaglest.github.io/docs/) is a fork of [MegaGlest](http://megaglest.org/),
a libre software cross platform real-time strategy game.
ZetaGlest is an entertaining free (freeware and free software) and open
source cross-platform 3D real-time strategy (RTS) game, where you
control the armies of one of eight different factions: Tech, Magic,
Egypt, Indians, Norsemen, Persian, Elves or Romans. The game is played
in one of 17 naturally looking settings, which, like the unit models,
are crafted with great attention to detail. A lot of additional game
data can be downloaded from within the game at no cost.
ZetaGlest is a network multi-player real-time strategy game engine.
It's shipped with the ZetaPack mod, which includes several factions,
each one consisting of many 3d characters. The factions are loosely
based on historical empires with added elements of fantasy, such as
mummies produced by Egyptian priests, Indian shamans who summon
thunderbirds for air assaults, and Norsemen who can build flying
valkries and "Thors". Start the game by harvesting natural resources,
then use the cash to produce an army. Single-player mode against the
CPU is also available.

## Why this fork? (Project Goals)
ZetaGlest forked from MegaGlest at v3.13.0-dev ([12998eb](https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-source/commit/12998eb10f6447ac89a45d1e6d76f17946647b7a))
Because we love MegaGlest! We wanted to take the project into a
slightly different direction, and therefore we forked MegaGlest into
the ZetaGlest project.

When serving a running game, a headless ZG server uses almost the

Description: 3D multi-player real time strategy game
ZetaGlest is a free 3D real-time customizable strategy game
which takes place in a context which could be compared to that of the
pre-renaissance Europe, with the licence that magic forces exist in the
environment and can be controlled.
