Ampersand

Creative, Economy, Mini Games, PvE, Survival

Ampersand is a 1.7.2 Minecraft survival server. We have two worlds, survival and creative, where you players can play to their hearts content. The survival world is integrated with the adventure world, so build space isnt too readily available, but we have options for players to teleport from the spawn zone. The difficulty is on hard because we felt that normal was not enough of a challenge for a multiplayer setting. The creative world requires you to pass a test before you can build in it, just contact a server administrator if you think you have what it takes!
