Nuget's War Axes
by Nuget
Nuget's War Axes adds six axes for Forge 1.20.1, one for each tier from wooden to netherite, intended for players who want axes to be a combat weapon.
What it does
Each axe is a melee weapon, so a player who prefers axes over swords can fight with them throughout the game. The six tiers follow the vanilla material progression, so the axe a player carries reflects how far they have advanced in mining and crafting.
The mod is for players on Forge 1.20.1 and works on both the client and the server, so every player on a server that runs it needs the mod too. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Files are published for Forge only, and the single build, 1.0, dates from 2024-02-09, the same day the mod was first published.
Key features
Wooden War Axe
The entry-level axe, made from wood, for early-game combat before stone or better materials are available.
Stone War Axe
A stone-tier axe that sits above the wooden version in damage and durability.
Iron War Axe
A mid-tier axe in iron, usable as the main weapon once a player has iron available.
Gold War Axe
A gold-tier axe, crafted from gold and placed between iron and diamond in the tier list.
Diamond War Axe
A diamond-tier axe for players who have reached diamond mining, with higher damage than the iron version.
Netherite War Axe
The top-tier axe, crafted from netherite, for late-game combat.
