This server is called Overtake Network and it is made for people who miss the old factions style from around 2014 to 2016. It is not about crazy modern stuff or pay to win menus. It is about raiding other bases doing real PvP and grinding your gear the normal way.
The combat is set up like native 1.8 so there are no hit cooldowns. You can spam click and block hit and use rods just like old school PvP. They really care about hit registration so fights feel smooth. You can join with newer versions like 1.12 but the combat still behaves like 1.8.
The main game mode is classic factions where you claim land build cannons and raid enemies. There is McMMO so you can level skills and get small advantages by grinding. The economy is balanced and built around farms mob grinders and a player auction house so players trade with each other.
There are vote rewards that actually give useful keys and items so voting feels worth it. They also say they have a strict anti cheat and they actively ban cheaters so fights are more fair.
The community is international with strong roots in EU and Bulgaria but the server uses English first and welcomes everyone. The map is brand new right now so you can start early and try to become one of the top factions before really huge groups join.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCollideCraft Time-Zero Semi Vanilla SMP

This server is called Halcyon and it is a Lands PvP world with a big medieval vibe. It was started by a postgraduate medievalist so the whole place feels like an old world survival story.
The server runs on the latest vanilla version and uses a handmade custom world. There are only a few gameplay rules but they make things harder on purpose. Progress is slow on this server and you cannot just rush with meta tricks or big farms. You have to rely on teamwork smart planning and real effort.
There is no teleportation at all so travel is a huge part of the game. Players build long roads waystations and even secret underground railways to connect their bases. Biomes are very important because crops and saplings only grow in certain places. This makes trading between regions super important and gives every area its own style.
Halcyon does not force any strict lore and the admins do not push you into a story. You just join pick a direction punch some trees and start from nothing. Over time your builds your trades and your fights with other players slowly turn into big stories.

The server is lightly modded and it focuses on nations and factions and politics. It is good if you like stories made by players and you want to be part of a bigger world instead of just playing alone.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPGreatest Of Centuries Medieval Roleplay
This server is called Greatest of Centuries and it is set in the year A.D. 1227. It tries really hard to feel like real medieval Central Europe with kingdoms and conflicts like Poland Kievan Rus and the Holy Roman Empire.

Trading is done by players using a trade command. You can barter with others to get better gear instead of using some big shop system. The whole server feels very minimalist and simple on purpose.
The rules are also pretty simple. No hacking or cheating because there is an anticheat. No lag machines. Other than that almost everything is allowed.
