Why here

What makes it different

There are a lot of factions servers. Here's why I think this one is worth your time.

Fair from day one

Nobody can buy a god kit or a stack of keys. A new faction has a real shot against an old one.

A custom plugin

Factions runs on a plugin I wrote for this server, so the rules are the classic ones and bugs get fixed fast.

Crossplay

Java and Bedrock players share one world, so the friend on their phone can raid with you.

Things to do

KOTH, BedWars, The Pit, Spleef, TNT Run, a sky parkour and a season pass, all paying in-game money.
