Astra Shastra
by varunluniya
Astra Shastra brings weapons from the Mahabharata to Minecraft, each with its own abilities, for players who want divine arms in their world.
What it does
Players can wield the legendary weapons of the epic, which are modeled on the gods, kings and warriors of its story. Each weapon comes with its own abilities, and the set is inspired by Vyasa's Mahabharata and built by the Minecraft community. The mod runs on the client only, so players install it themselves and servers do not need it. Builds are published for Forge and NeoForge across 8 release versions, 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, under All rights reserved, and the code is not open source.
