Amereth's Siege

This mod provides tense gameplay to Minecraft and turns jenre to action. Ideal for LAN servers to survive with your friends and modded tamable companions. All monster-type mob will now try to get you for real. 

You think you can still dig away from them? Meet new stamina system. Braking or placing blocks will consume stamina. It regenerates slow by time. But if u just literally sit to take a breath ("N" to sit by default) stamina will regenare faster. You're just a human after all. Now survival will require a bit of tactics. New craftable "Burb" drink will fix your tireness but not for free.
