About this Modpack
This is a modpack that I designed for my server, official thing. It's meant to offer a unique experience with the myriad of mods and content available, while also being considerate of players with lower-end devices and mindful of the server's small amount of RAM and CPU processing power.
Some popular mods in this modpack that I would like to highlight are Tinker's Construct, allowing customisable tools made of powerful metals and materials to be forged in the all-mighty smeltery; Ars Nouveau, a magic mod containing an arsenal of spells usable via three different tiers of spellbooks, with each progressively giving access to new higher-level glyphs; Applied Energistics 2, centred around the ME system to grant an endlessly expandable storage; Create, a mechanically powered mod with a fun and well-designed steampunk-esque theme; and Mekanism, all about processing items as efficiently and quickly as possible. There are much more mods included in this than are listed here. I removed the mod list in this description because it's just a lot to keep up with, and I think on each of the releases there's a mod list.
