About this Mod


This mod aims to make the player feel like a medieval knight. At the moment, the modification contains a lot of new banner patterns, 16 sets of armor, 8 types of shields and 26 types of weapons, most of which can be made from 11 available materials: wood, stone, iron, gold, diamond, netherite, steel (new), copper, silver, tin, bronze.These weapons have special features like increased range and armor piercing. Also this mod adds steel to the game, which will not conflict with steel from other modifications. To craft steel, put an iron ingot in a blast furnace. On the latest version you can apply a banner on armor and horse armor (just like on a shield) and dye some types of armor. Configs are in the config/epicknights folder.
