Spelunking with Spiders – A Minecraft Short Story/Comic
Behold the unfortunate tale of Mouthless the Wanderer and his crippling fear of spiders, featuring Jeff the Sheep.
Spelunking with Spiders
“Please, no spiders. No spiders…”
Mouthless’s eyes widened as he peered at the gaping cave entrance, eager to get inside and start mining away.

“Baa baaa’a a baaa ba baaaaa?” Jeff the Sheep said, prodding Mouthless to get a move on with a tap of his knee by his hoof.

In addition, a number of mods only list the latest Java version as compatible. This article will teach you how to install the correct or updated Java version and enable Minecraft to utilize it.

Outpost Tours on Empire Minecraft: Pilz-Reich
The Empire Minecraft Outpost Tour series is written by me, JDHallows, a staff member on Empire Minecraft. I travel out to different outposts throughout the Frontier on EMC. While there, I take notes and pictures of these players outposts and create an informative tour of each one. This tour is based on Pilz-Reich, a Mooshroom island outpost created by the player SoulPunisher in the Fall of 2012.
