slim and tall narrow alleys cobble stone above ground and wide plazas smooth stone and fancy stuffs underground.

so warren of city streets above and well designed dwarven fortress below

[OREMAWESOME1234]

I think there should be major outposts/bases for the main factions, Like a Large Hogwarts-esque building for the Scholars, and things of that nature.

[RunsWithLegos]

factions should be done awway with
they litteraly do nothing but put walls between people for no good reason, we have way to few people to implement factions to any level of coolness

[Ham701]

Recruit more people, make factions cooler, have wars.

[Zupponn]

have wars.

This.

One of the reasons I stopped really going onto the server was that everyone was in a "everybody-hold-hands-and-work-together" state of mind, which I wasn't very fond of. At least on the original server Tempersia and Ironfall were supposed to be at odds with one another. Having factions and wars would be fun and definitely make me interested in coming back.

[RunsWithLegos]

i like working together, but big factions are cool too but that is it
BIG ONES rule
small ones, 3 or 4, each suck

[mgb519]

Small factions mean everyone's paranoid and on edge against everyone but three people or fewer, and it devolves into post apoc survival or something.
What's the problem, again?

[RunsWithLegos]

every one on the server allways joins one side or another. like order seemed like every one was on orders side for BRIKHALLS except me and zupps

[Zupponn]

Would having part of the map set aside for warmongering people be an idea?

[RunsWithLegos]

1000 block radius around spawn is fair game for war maybe

[Zupponn]

Or I could set up a new server for warring if we want.

Or I could set up a new server for warring if we want.

How would war in Minecraft work? Would that mean that I come online the first time after some days away only to find my home destroyed and plundered by the enemy?
Or would we have organized battles and rewards for the winners? What would this reward be?

Maybe the winner will take control over a certain area. Say Faction A controles everything north of x=300, Faction B everything south of x=-300. The area in between is neutral ground or devided into districts the factions struggle to control. Spawn City will stay neutral till the end.

[SnakeMittens]

Yes. The factions mod already has a mechanic where if people die in a faction, their power goes down, and other factions can swoop in and claim land. Maybe have large walls marking the boundaries of the neutral area in the style of each faction? What would the factions be, anyways?

Edit: Make the boundaries 320 and -320, because of the way the faction mod works.

[knolli]

Did I mix up the coordinates? What I meant was: A and B each own half the world, separated by a slim line of neutral ground at z=0. In their domain, they are free to do whatever they want, according to their own Faction Guidelines. They should have a Capital or Stronghold.

The City will be in this neutral area. Fighting in the City will be prohibited by Devine Law (Admin). Also each faction can have a embassy in the the City, preferably at each side of Spawn Plaza, so that new players can learn about them right away.

[Ham701]

We should also put the mod that allowed for ships back in. Then we can have organized naval battles that hopefully don't break the server.
