Superb Warfare Expanded is a military-focused Minecraft modpack featuring modern weapons, vehicles, aircraft, artillery and engineering.
The main focus is combat and military gameplay, but the pack also gives you room to build your own bases, factories and infrastructure. Mods like Superb Warfare, TACZ, Create and Create Big Cannons work together to add weapons, vehicles, artillery and engineering without completely changing the feel of Minecraft.
What is included
- Modern firearms and equipment
- Tanks and other armored vehicles
- Aircraft and helicopters
- Artillery and heavy weapons
- Military bases and structures
- Create and Create Big Cannons
- Terrain and exploration improvements (Terralith on 1.20.1)
- Xaero's Minimap and World Map
- Simple Voice Chat
- Performance and optimization mods
Gameplay
You can play on your own or with friends. Build a base, prepare your equipment, set up production and take your vehicles into combat.
The pack is built around open-ended military gameplay, so there is no single way to play it. You can focus on infantry combat, build and operate vehicles, work on your own military base, or use Create to build production and artillery systems.
In multiplayer you can gather your squad, capture strategic locations, take part in large-scale battles, construct bases and combine infantry, vehicles and aircraft.
Forge vs NeoForge
The pack is available on both Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge and Minecraft 1.21.1 NeoForge, but the two versions are not identical.
1.21.1 (NeoForge): Main Branch
This is the main branch of the pack and the version where long-term development is focused. It was moved to NeoForge because most upstream mods no longer support Forge on newer Minecraft versions.
NeoForge also has access to performance mods such as Lithium and Sodium, which are used in this branch and are not part of the 1.20.1 Forge setup.
The main downside is content availability. Some TACZ addons and other military modules have not been ported to NeoForge yet, so the 1.21.1 version currently has a smaller selection of weapons, attachments and related content. Some components also rely on community ports while official NeoForge support is still unavailable.
1.20.1 (Forge): Full Content
This version currently has the larger selection of military content and addons, especially TACZ content, attachments and other military-related addons. New updates usually arrive on 1.20.1 first.
Choose 1.21.1 NeoForge if you want the main branch, the newer Minecraft version and the additional performance options. Choose 1.20.1 Forge if you want the larger content set and the earliest updates.

I wanted to share some updates about *Superb Warfare*. We’ve made a few changes to help fix some serious crashes and technical problems with the main mod, which means we’ve temporarily turned off a few add-on modules for this update.
Right now, the following add-ons are unavailable:
- SBW: Combined Arms
- SBW: Electronic Warfare
- SBW: Superb Extras
The main reason for this is to solve the crashes we faced when reloading weapons and using different systems, as there were some conflicts in the code. By disabling these add-ons, we’re aiming for a smoother gaming experience until the developers can provide updated versions. We’ll bring these mods back once they’re ready to go, so keep an eye out!
This update focuses on improving client-side performance. Added Lithium, EntityCulling, MoreCulling and ImmediatelyFast to reduce lag and improve frame rates, especially in areas with many entities. Updated Connector, JEI and ModernFix to their latest versions. Removed 3D Skin Layers.
As a reminder, TACZ and a few dependent mods are still not available on NeoForge, so this beta branch remains limited compared to the Forge version until those mods add NeoForge support.

SuperbWarfare has been updated to version 0.8.9. Along with this update on SuperbWarfare, many other documents such as SBW Drone Warfare, Ash’s Vehicles, Jade, JEI, ModernFix, Simple Voice Chat, and Xaero’s Minimap have also been updated to their respective latest versions. In addition to this, AppleSkin and Not Enough Animations were added for enhancing the experience of the users. VVP beta was removed due to compatibility issues.
We want to let you know that TACZ and a few other mods can’t be installed in the NeoForge version of this modpack. They were designed for Forge, and right now, they aren’t compatible with NeoForge because the developers haven’t updated them yet or the updates aren’t stable. We understand this might be disappointing since it affects some features and weapons you were looking forward to. We're actively watching for news from the mod creators and will add NeoForge support for these mods as soon as we can. If you really need TACZ and the others, it’s best to use the Forge version of the modpack for now. Thank you for your understanding!
I’m excited to share that I’ve added a large collection of new mods that will really take your gameplay to another level. There are new weapons, vehicles, buildings, decorations, and some features that will improve your overall experience. I’ve also expanded the exploration aspect by adding more content that generates new worlds and discoveries. This really enhances the military and tactical gameplay.
On the performance side of things, we've made some solid improvements to how the modpack runs. We've reduced unnecessary resource usage and beefed up stability for both single-player and multiplayer modes. There are now more mods and even more content to dive into. Enjoy!
We want to let you know that because of how big and complex Superb Warfare Expanded is, it might not run well on older or cheaper computers. We're actively working to improve its performance and compatibility, so future updates will provide a smoother experience.
Thank you for your patience and support as we continue to enhance the modpack for everyone. Your understanding means a lot to us!
