Age Of Metallurgy
Age Of Metallurgy is a Fabric and NeoForge mod that adds alloys, ores, structures and building blocks to the vanilla world, built around metallurgy as a progression path.
What it does
Alloys are made by combining vanilla materials, for example iron and copper producing bronze. The mod also introduces its own ores, with new alloys that can be applied through a drawing, a thing and an ingot, sometimes producing a rarer result similar to amethyst or endrite. Advanced items and weapons follow from these materials, including bayonets, sickles and dual axes with advanced variants, plus a steel mini sword that only steel can make.
Newly generated structures carry interesting loot and add places to explore between towns and the wild. Pills crafted from calcium remove a negative effect and add a positive one, and music disks are found mostly in dungeons. Building blocks, different brick colors, cooking pieces and armor trims round out the content. Files exist for 1.21.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The author describes ongoing development with new versions released over time.
