This mod adds 9 new snowballs to Minecraft which have a unique set of features. It needs forge to run.
Snowballs:
Hardened Snowball:
Two normal snowballs compressed into one which deals 2 () damage. And it is so cool that it extinguishes entitys when they are on fire
Stone in hardened Snowball:
We all know that guy that puts stones into snowballs when in a snowball-fight to hurt the others more. Well this foul trick can also be used in this mod!
Just put a block of cobblestone into a hardened snowball and it deals 5 () damage. It also extinguishes entitys when they are on fire.
Teleportation Snowball:
It is like a reversed Ender Pearl. Instead of teleporting you to a different location, it teleports the hit entity to you! And it deals 3 () damage to the entity in the progress!
It is crafted via combining the power of a hardened snowball and the magical features of a Ender Pearl.
Nether Snowball:
It teleports the hit entity into the depths of the Nether! Ha! And it damages it by 1 ().
You can craft it with one hardened snowball, a Netherrack-Block and one pinch of glowstone dust.
Knockback Snowball I:
When you put a stick into a hardened snowball, it becomes easier to throw. So it not only deals 3 () damage, but it also knocks the entity some blocks away! Max 3 Blocks horizontally and 1 block vertically, to be precise.
Knockback Snowball II:
Same as state I, but it deals 4 () damage and knocks the entity 8 blocks horizontally and 2 blocks vertically away.
Just put another stick into a Knockback Snowball I and you are good to go!
Admin Snowball:
Only admins are allowed to control the unlimited powers of the admin snowball because it is crafted when combining a hardened snowball and one piece of precious bedrock.
It kills every entity in one hit.
Hit or Miss Snowball:
It is my favourite of the bunch
When you hit a entity, it deals 3 () damage and you get improving Potion Effects like Speed, Regeneration, Strengh and Saturation for 20 seconds!
The effect only works when you don't already have the same effects rights know.
But if you miss the shot, you get bad Potion Effects like Slowness, Poison, Weakness and Hunger for 20 seconds!
Craft it with one hardened snowball and one Bottle of Water.
You better be training your throwing skills a little bit, huh? ;D
Thief Snowball:
If you hit a entity with it, it deals 2 () damage and if that entity happens to be a other player, it will transfer one random item stack from that players inventory to your inventory. What a mean trick!
It will always take the whole stack, not just one item. Empty slots in the inventory of the other player are being ignored.
If the other player has no items in his inventory, you will get nothing. If your inventory is full, the stolen item stack will drop on your current position.
If you surround one iron ingot with 4 hardened snowballs, you will get 4 Thief Snowballs.
