CBC:Enhanced Shell Armor [Create Big Cannons]
Adds armored variants of vanilla blocks with configurable CBC toughness, blast resistance, and Sable weight.
About this Mod
Cannon Compressed Armor reinforces the blocks you already build with — turning cobblestone, deepslate, planks, logs, and more into battle-hardened armor capable of standing up to Create Big Cannons fire.
Choose from three armor variants for each of 57 vanilla block types:
Toughness — increases CBC piercing resistance (up to 3,500 toughness at Mk.6)
Blast — increases explosion resistance (up to 50 blast resistance at Mk.6)
Combined — both, at the cost of heavier Sable physics weight
Each variant comes in six upgrade tiers, crafted by surrounding 8 base blocks with a matching template in a crafting table, yielding 8 armored blocks. Templates are made from tiered compressed iron ingots — each level compresses 9 of the previous — so Mk.6 armor represents a serious material investment.
Armored glass blocks use Create's connected texture system when Create is installed, seamlessly joining into transparent reinforced walls. All Sable physics weights are accounted for, so your armored airships stay balanced.
Requires: Create and Create Big Cannons
Highly Recommended: CBC Enhanced Sheels since it is made for the level of attack they provide and Create Aeronautics as it allows for balanced sky combat with weight accounted.
Optional: All The Compressed (accepted as template ingredient alongside the built-in compressed iron)
