More Horse Armor (MHA)

by LieOnLion

More Horse Armor adds stronger horse armour tiers, so riders can protect their mounts on long trips across the world.

FabricForgeClient and serverMIT License1.20 – 1.20.1

What it does

The mod adds horse armour in higher tiers than vanilla, including armour made from Enderite. Riders equip a stronger piece on a horse to reduce the damage the mount takes. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and the mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Files are published for Fabric and Forge for 1.20.1, and 1.20 is listed as a game version without a file of its own. The code is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Stronger horse armour

    New armour pieces give a horse more protection than the standard leather and iron options.

  2. Netherite and Enderite armour

    Higher tiers use netherite and Enderite materials, with Enderite armour available through the optional companion mod.

  3. Protected travel

    Armoured mounts keep more of their health on long journeys, which suits players who ride between distant areas.
