Some of my friends and I recently started a new Historical Role Playing/PVP Factions server called CivCraft. Basically the idea is that players lead different nations starting in the year 1785. Time on the server will progress by 1 year every 4 real life days. We've got 15 custom guns/swords/etc. players can craft, and you can also make your own working ships with cannons that actually fire, or hot air balloons. On top of that we have the Exotic Garden plugin so you can craft all kinds of delicious foods like cheesecake, lasagna, etc.

The only problem with the server right now is we don't have enough active nation leaders to recruit new players. So if you're interested in joining our server please check out our PMC page. The link to our Enjin and Discord are there.

If you just want to play as a regular member of a faction that's fine too, you might have to wait for a nation leader or officer to come on and invite you though. We'll be bumping our ad daily to constantly attract new players in order to try and build up a decent little role playing community. Hope to see you online soon!
