Empire - Minecolonies 1.18.2
Modpackby Clouds18709
A Lightweight modpack focused around expanding your empire with Minecolonies.
Description

![]()

Empire is about expanding upon your various towns and creating an empire, and it allows you to do so with relatively easy access to the materials needed. You'll find tools to make building easier, tools to make mining and digging more efficient, ways to manage it all nicely, and more. Also the vanilla exploration has been expanded upon, so you'll see variants of structures you're used to, as well as a few new ones. Lastly, farming and foods have been overhauled as well, with a few more lore-friendly food crops, a couple hundred new foods, and resource crops, for long-term reliable resources.
(If you have a schematic you want to be in the pack, drop a comment and describe what it is and we might add it.)

1.18.2
The pack has been updated to 1.18.2, with various changes.
Mods have been added in order to improve performance on the later versions.
Certain mods have been replaced that haven't been updated yet.
Currency has been replaced and now drops from mobs, use a bank to craft better versions of your coins to unlock the quest branches.

The shop portion of the quest initially looked like the image below in 1.16, but in the 1.18 version it can be considered obsolete until I can come up with some better way to implement a shop.
