IronFort
by Plantovision
IronFort is a Forge magic and equipment mod for 1.18.2 that adds a small set of original weapons built to fit alongside vanilla Minecraft.
What it does
The weapons are wielded like vanilla items, but each one carries its own movement or combat effect. The Targe is a shield that works differently from a normal shield: right-clicking it sends the user shooting forward. Charging an attack brings the user closer to the target and grants a strength buff at the end of the charge. A charge can also slam enemies with high velocity.
Some weapons use the charge to move the wielder rather than the target. Charging in the air locks the user into a steady downward velocity for the charge's duration, and certain scenarios cancel fall damage. Striking an enemy with the Boxing Glove applies slowness II to its wielder, but landing a kill with it gives that wielder a brief surge of strength V.
Installation needs only Forge for 1.18.2, and the mod runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge alone, with 1.0.0 for 1.18.2 as the latest build, released 2023-06-12, and the code is licensed under All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.

What the author says
In all seriousness, this is a collection of weapons that I stole from ported from Team Fortress 2. I tried to keep it to weapons that would generally fit the themes of Minecraft, so you wont see the Natascha outside of your night terrors. # Banners IronFort adds 3 banners to the game, which allows you to give buffs…
