2TMC

Hello we are 2TMC a 21+ community server much like Hermitcraft. We are a SMP with emphasis on being friendly (with a little bit of chaos) with other players, and trying to be a welcoming community to everyone. We are running a Semi-Vanilla server with a few terrain generation mods and additional mods that enhance the vanilla experience (see list below).

We are looking for players who will be active in game on chat and on our Discord voice channels. The server is in NA but we accept players from all around the world. Discord and a mic are required! We love to chat on voice in game but it’s definitely not required! We are also youtuber/streamer friendly. So if you love to play minecraft and are looking for a friendly environment where you can prank others and do community projects then send us a message! We’d love to chat with you.

I’m ‘Weasel Beans’, and Beanscraft is a 1.20.4 Survival Multiplayer server. The server has a trading economy based on diamonds, an in-depth claiming and player organization system powered by Lands, PvP, and everything you can experience in the latest version of Minecraft!

My server is supported by patrons, and is verified to be completely EULA compliant, according to an official review by Mojang themselves! Since beginning Beanscraft in early 2019, over 11,000 players have joined. And now recently I have rebuilt the server from the ground up using what I’ve learned over the years.

There is no whitelist, nor are there any hoops to jump through to start off. Play solo, with friends, or with other active players! There is plenty of freedom here. Aside from that, we also have a discord server with over 500 concurrent members. Please join Beanscraft and help us continue to build a great community around this game we all love!

-=-=-=-=-=-=–=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

In-Game Rules:

1 - No anti-Beanscraft activity.

TOTAL WAR: AGE OF BLOOD

age, Blood, Factions, TOTAL, War

🔥 🔥 🔥

Are you bored? Do you like history? Have you ever wanted to build an empire or become a god? Do working ships, planes, and drawbridges catch your interest? Then here’s a server for you!

TOTAL WAR: AGE OF BLOOD Make your favorite nation/country from history (or whatever hypothetical country you can dream up) and dominate the world with your empire. Be part of the latest installment of a 7-year saga.

DISCORD: https://discord.gg/WtTUVEXnkB

YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgKdXTsb9GsChzoye8ru2zQ

BIG BATTLE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBO3WswL4y0

Plugins Designed By Owner

Total War’s owner is taking the opportunity to improve his programming skills and his Minecraft server at the same time. The sever currently has TWFAITH, which allows players to create religions and gain divine powers from their followers. Expect this server to improve over time as he adds new plugins with exciting features.

Compete for Dominance on an Earth Map Total War hosts a 1:1000 scale map of the Earth for players to explore, colonize, and fight over. Players can make their favorite countries/nations/empires from history or make something entirely new.

Make Ships that Sail and Planes that Fly Total War uses the Movecraft plugin, which allows players to make vehicles that sail, fly, and ride around the world. Make your favorite battleships and airplanes, and equip them with cannons from the cannons plugin or TNT cannons. Then, use your creations to wreak havoc in battle.

BIGDOORS Make large drawbridges, portcullis, sliding doors, and double doors with opening and closing animations. You will spend at least 5 minutes toggling your city’s gates open and closed just to watch the animation.

Total War: Age of Blood Rules 1. Respect the staff team. 2. Bullies are not welcome in Total War. Players are free to insult each other in the game over in-game events, but they are not allowed to use real life (race, sex, appearance, etc.) as the basis of insults. Slurs are not acceptable as insults regardless of whether or not the slur would normally be used against the person in real life. Joking around with people who understand is fine, but when someone says stop, stop. 3. Don’t do anything that undermines the server (spam, hacking, duping, block-glitching, etc.) 4. Preventing a player from leaving spawn by repeatedly killing them is prohibited. You may kill the player once for their gear, but killing them repeatedly afterwards as they try to leave is not allowed. 5. Alternate accounts, whether on Minecraft or Discord, are not allowed. 6. Have fun!

Build Banter & Beyond

banter, BUILD, smp

🔥 🔥 🔥

World started @ 10PM MT Feb 8th 2024

I plan to always bring in new people to the server so there’s always an active playerbase, with new friends being made!

Whats different? No Natural Health Regen. What does this mean? When you take damage, no matter how full your hunger is, it won’t regenerate your lost hearts that that pesky skeleton took from you. How can you regenerate your health? Fairly simple: when you spawn, you’ll be given two golden apples to start with. Use them wisely, as they will bring your health back up. You can also use things such as potions, beacons, or crafting golden apples. Why this change? Too make the game feel more like a challenge, no matter how late you are.

Endermen greifing has been disabled. Creepers, and Ghasts still do their thing, though.

Single-player sleep is turned on to make sleeping through restless nights easier.
