Minecraft mods

Hey people's. Today I'm going to write more about minecraft. Here it goes!

This blog is mostly going to be about my favorite Minecraft mods ending with my most favorite. Here are 3 relatively small mods. The first one is called the monster biomes mod. A biome in Minecraft determines, the grass color, the trees, what lives there, and how flat/mountainous it is. The Monster biomes mod makes most of the biomes very mountainous and the huge mountains with jungle trees makes it look amazing. It still has the flat plains biome though to balance it out. The next one is called the Archimedes ships mod and it let's you create your own ship and pilot it. This one is called Mine and Blade battle gear 2. It gives other weapons than swords such as, maces, battle axes, daggers, and spears. Mine and Blade also adds a dual wielding feature. It also adds 2 new armor sets, shields, and you can customize one set of armor, your flag, and banners with different medieval style emblems. I like it because it adds an awesome medieval feel to Minecraft.

Here is one mod that I like a lot. This one is called The Clay Soldiers mod. It adds the ability to create little gray figures using clay for the body and souls and to create life. You can add every dye to a figure to change it's color and all the clay soldiers from one color will attack other colors and fight to the death! Many items in the game can be added to clay soldiers to give them advantages. You can give them a gold nugget to designate the king, gunpowder so they explode upon death, an iron core to strengthen them, sticks for clubs, flint to sharpen their sticks, diamonds to create super soldiers. You can even give them mounts such as, horses made out of dirt, a snow Pegasus to fly, geckos to climb the walls, and even turtles to float on water. They can even build tiny houses if you give them wood. The clay soldiers mod is awesome for when you just want to make a tiny arena and have clay civilizations battle it out. This is something I have dreamed about when I was younger and I love it.

These next two are HUGE mods and are great for having a massive fantasy adventure in Minecraft. The first one is called Divine RPG and is the backbone of these two mods. It adds in a TON of new, monsters, ores to mine, weapons and tools, blocks, dimensions, and bosses. It basically takes everything you love about Minecraft and multiplies it times 10. I say it is the backbone because it gives you the long term adventure/RPG feel to it but the next mod called Thaumcraft 3 adds in a lot off new concepts to the game. Thaumcraft is a mod that adds in kind of a "science is magic" feel. It bases around the concept that If you take an item and study it long enough you find out about certain aspects about it like, flint and steel would probably have at least a tool aspect and a fire aspect. After studying things long enough you begin to be able to tinker with magical inventions using different aspects you discover. This process of creating magical items using science is called Thaumaturgy It is a pretty complicated mod but it is amazing for those who want to add Magic to Minecraft.

So that was some of my favorite minecraft mods. I do plan on doing more as well. Bye!
