Spartan Shields — Minecraft mod
by ObliviousSpartan
Spartan Shields turns vanilla's single shield into a full progression, starting with a Crude Wooden Shield you can craft from four planks as soon as you punch trees and moving up through sturdier materials. Tower shield variants accept banners, and a shield bash mechanic works with the vanilla shield plus any modded shield added to the mod's bash tag. The mod is open source under the Apache 2.0 licence.
