Clay Soldiers Mod (1.12.2, 1.10.2) – Unleash Your Own Tiny War

Clay Soldiers Mod lets you create tiny armies out of clay and soul sand. You can then stage epic battles in a space as small as your own backyard. Give your little soldiers different weapons and armor, and watch them fight until only one color team is left. This mod also adds small animal mounts that can help your soldiers in battle, along with special clay structures.

Features:

• Create miniature soldiers from clay and soul sand.
• Assign soldiers to different teams using all 16 dye colors.
• Stage battles between different teams of clay soldiers.
• Equip your soldiers by dropping items on the ground for them to pick up.
• Soldiers can climb up single blocks to navigate the terrain.
• Find naturally generating Clay Huts in your world, some peaceful and some zombified.
• Use the Clay Disruptor to easily clean up the battlefield by removing all soldiers and mounts in an area.
• Craft a Clay Lexicon book to get in-game information about the mod’s features.

Mounts & Allies:

• Craft horses and flying pegasi for your soldiers to ride.
• Make turtles that can carry soldiers across water.
• Create bunnies that jump high, making them hard to hit.
• Geckos can climb walls, giving your soldiers a tactical advantage.
• The Clay Nexus block automatically respawns fallen soldiers to keep the battle going.

Upgrades & Equipment:

• Weapons: Give them sticks, arrows, or shear blades to increase their melee damage.
• Ranged Attacks: Equip them with gravel, snowballs, or fire charges to attack from a distance.
• Defense: Leather and bowls reduce the damage soldiers take.
• Special Items: A gold nugget turns a soldier into a king that others will follow, while a diamond makes them a super soldier with much more health.

How to Use:

1. Craft clay soldiers using one clay block and one soul sand.
2. Right-click on the ground to place a group of soldiers, or sneak and right-click to place just one.
3. Place soldiers from at least two different colored teams near each other to start a fight.
4. To give them upgrades, simply drop items like sticks, leather, or gravel on the ground. The soldiers will automatically pick them up and equip them.
5. If you want to end a battle or clear the area, use the Clay Disruptor item. It will kill all soldiers and mounts within a 32-block radius.

Clay Soldiers

A clay soldier is an item you can hold in your hand. It is crafted using a clay block (for substance) and soulsand (for sustaining intelligent life). Once you have a nice little pile in your hands (up to 16), right-click to place them all at once or sneak-right-click to place only one.

They will quickly spread out and begin to roam the landscape. The soldiers walk slow and don’t jump very high, but they have enough arm strength to climb up a single block. Unfortunately, since they lack a decent skeletal support structure (or even skin, for that matter), their delicate figures can be horribly mutilated by even the weakest of blows. A player can cripple a clay soldier in just a single punch.

So naturally, they aren’t hostile towards anything bigger than themselves. But what in the world are they qualified to fight against? Other clay soldiers, of course! There are a whole lot of different teams you can craft your pale gray soldiers into: All 16 dyes (light gray count as regular soldiers for that matter) and even melon/pumpkin flavored! If you place two (or more) different teams and they can see each other, they immediately begin to fight.

You’re probably thinking: “Well, that’s neat and all, but is there anything to spice up the fights?” The answer is: Of course! Clay Soldiers can ride a plethora of different mounts and can hold a huge array of upgrades, on which you’ll find out shortly.

Choose from a variety of equipment, arm your soldiers to the teeth and have a showdown to see which type of assistance is more beneficial to their survival! All you need to do is drop the desired item on the ground for them to pick up. You can even drop a stack of said item and they’ll evenly split it up amongst themselves:

Clay Disruptor

Before we’ll talk about the mounts, lets firstly talk about how to clean up a mess! Your soldiers run away and you don’t want to chase them around, killing every single one of them? Or you’re just tired of the current fight and want to restart the match with different upgrades? Then we have the right device for you! Upon usage it will kill every soldier (and mounts, too) in a 32 block radius, clean and tidy! There’s also a hardened version, which gives the double amount of uses.

For the creative crafters: When you use it while sneaking, you can delete every clay soldier / mount item laying on the floor, too!

Horses and Pegasi

Indeed you can craft a trusty steed for them to sit on! Simple soulsand and a material, which is usable to craft a horse for your personal armies to ride and enjoy. Horses have no team allegiance, so any soldier can ride any horse. Depending on the used material, a horse will have either more health or more speed. In 50% of cases a soldier with a horse gets hit, the horse will take the damage instead of the rider. Be careful not to burn the horses, though!
But normal horses may be not enough for you. So why not try pegasi? Those elegant flying creatures will hover above the ground and share the same material treats as horses.

Turtles

These adorable little things come in different flavors, which are all capable of holding your armies above water. Also, if they get damaged, they’ll reflect a small potion of the damage back to the attacker! Other than that, each type has it’s own speed and health values, just like horses do.

Bunnies

Bunnies come in ALL the wool colors and, different from their horse/pegasus/turtle counterpart, have the same speed and amount of health. They will hop as high as the player can, even when ridden, which is amazing considering their size! Oh, and they constantly jump around when a soldier hops on them, making it difficult for the enemies to hit them properly.

Geckos

Those spider-like creatures can be crafted from any type of (vanilla) sapling, so there are the richest mount regarding type variety! You ask “Why spider-like?” Well, because they can climb up to 3 block-high walls! Despite having so much different types (36), or even because of that, they are all the same regarding speed/health, just like bunnies.

Clay Nexus

The day of extended, never ending battles is upon us! This is the greatest piece of clay-technology we’ve ever made. This device, when activated, will call upon the spirits of fallen soldiers of the many battles past to return to the frey in an attempt to redeem themselves in combat once more! It can also provide a spirit-mount for the spawned soldier. Both won’t drop any item upon death, neither themselves nor their upgrades! Enemy soldiers will attempt to deactivate the nexus, but only when they have no target to attack anymore. Did we tell you that it can throw anything the soldiers can throw? No? Well, now you know.

Clay-Statistics Display

You’ve always wanted to know how many soldiers are on the battlefield and predict who will win? We’ve heard your calls and crafted this next wonder in clay-technology! Just by holding it, you can see which team with how many members is on the battlefield. It even goes as far and counts the number of mounts.
This is a non-finished feature for now! Stuff can change, you have been warned!

Shear blades

This is explained in the upgrades section, so we’ll just give you the crafting recipes here:

Clay Huts

For all those adventurers out there, we’ve asked the all-mighty ChunkGenerator to add those to his generation features, and he finally heard us! When generating new chunks of land (either by generating a new world or by exploring new areas), you may encounter one of these buildings, filled with peaceful clay soldiers and a chest filled with clay-related stuff in them. But be careful, since there is a chance of encountering a zombified hut whose inhabitants are out to kill you!
