Stahl und Sterne

# Stahl und Sterne (Steel and Stars)

**A hand-built tech skyblock for NeoForge 1.21.1.** You wake up on a small floating island with empty pockets. No starter kit, no free tools. Sieve, hammer and craft your way up to giant Create factories, nuclear reactors and a fully automated storage network, guided by a quest book with more than 1,000 quests.

> ⚠️ **Beta:** The pack is playable from start to finish, but still being tested. Found a bug or a balance issue? Please tell us on [Discord](https://discord.gg/zVBTyjTV5R) or in the comments. Updates come out regularly.

## Why this pack?

– **A real skyblock start.** You begin with nothing on a hand-built island with a 3-storey factory hall. Every resource comes from sieving, hammering and crushing (Ex Deorum and Create). Something is hidden below the hall…
– **1,086 quests in 45 chapters.** The quest book leads you from your first sieve through Create, Mekanism, AE2, Modern Industrialization and Oritech up to Draconic Evolution and Avaritia, with magic and exploration chapters along the way.
– **Points shop “Trader of the Stars”.** Every quest pays out points. Spend them on items you can’t get any other way yet. Finishing a chapter unlocks a new shop tier.
– **4 unlockable side islands.** Greenhouse, Quarry, Power Plant and Warehouse. Each one arrives with its own working machines (tree farm, ore farm, solar plant, AE2 storage) and is earned through a hard quest that consumes the items you hand in.
– **Lucky blocks** as rewards for the hardest quests only.
– **Secrets.** Hidden quests, shooting stars, a lost island and a mysterious logbook. Not everything is on the map.
– **Made for friends.** Everyone plays together on the main island and shares progress.
