Semi Competitive

Lodestone is a Minecraft geopolitics and worldbuilding server that is going into a closed beta. It tries to give a fresh twist on the usual town and war style.

The main thing I noticed is the spice trade system. You harvest different spices and sell them at spawn and the land you control changes how good your spices are. This makes people want to fight over the best land so the economy and wars actually feel connected.

The server also uses Towny so players can make towns and nations and go to war with each other. There are chest shops so anyone can set up a shop with a chest and a sign and trade items with other players.

There is also Auraskills so you can level up a bunch of skills and unlock different abilities as you play. It fits the worldbuilding and war style because you keep growing your character over time.

To join right now you have to get into the closed beta by applying through their discord and then you can get the server IP from the how to play channel.
