Lodgecraft

This modpack was designed with the intent to keep performance high while still including several core mods that provide interesting content and progression.  Some of the key elements:

* Thermal Series: this family of mods provides a means for processing materials more efficiently and flexibly, with a smooth progression through technological maturity.  Ties in nicely with...

* Extreme Reactors: this modern port of the classic Big Reactors mod allows players to create large multi-block structures that generate massive amounts of energy to power production machines.  

* Tinker's Construct: the ultimate weapon/tool mod.  Optimize your loadout for your needs: monster hunting, farming, excavation.  Tinker's construct has a tool for every task, and includes another neat multiblock structure in the smeltery.

* Thaumcraft: a little magic never hurt anyone.  Thaumcraft provides a unique and fun progression for the mage in each of us.  Learn the building blocks of the world, and twist them to your purposes.

* Chisel / Chisel & Bits: for the designers among us.  Chisel provides a means for selecting between several textures for most common blocks, and C&B lets you cut blocks down to more precise sizes and shapes.  What good is being the God of your world if you can't shape it into something beautiful?  

If you're looking for a modpack that provides technology & factorization, magic, advanced toolcrafting, aesthetic building, and more, all while keeping the modlist short and performance snappy - look no further.
