Astral Swords is a hardcore vanilla SMP where you only get one life and every move feels scary.
I saw players working together and also going solo and both ways look super intense. There are no fancy extras so it is just you and Minecraft and the world trying to kill you.
The server runs on Java 1.21.10 and it is meant to feel unstable and tough. When you die your run is over so people think before they fight or explore.
Everyone uses Discord to stay connected and plan runs and events. The community feels like it really wants hardcore challenge and true survival with no extra fluff.

This is a Minecraft server where humans fight zombies and both sides are real players. Humans try to survive until the time runs out. Zombies try to infect all the humans.
Humans can hide in stash spots and place sandbags and lasermines to block zombies. They can also run around the arenas and use things like pet bats and jetpacks if they want to play more risky.
Zombies can pick from many different zombie classes. Each class has its own job. Some zombies are made to rush stash spots and some can leap around and chase humans in different ways.
The server has a custom grind system with bot zombies. These bot zombies move around smart and jump so you can farm them. They drop bundles and powerups. Every month the top mob killers get prizes like VIP and other good rewards.
There are weekly events like gaming nights and double rewards. There are also monthly events with leaderboards and top killer stuff so players always have something to work for.

Kronos SMP is a full Earth server where the map is scaled to 1 to 500 so the continents are actually huge and oceans really matter. Everyone starts in a completely fresh world so there are no old nations or ruined bases and no stacked empires waiting for you.
You pick a real location then you claim it and defend it or try to take someone else’s land. The whole server is about nations and geopolitics more than grinding. Small factions can grow into full countries and players use diplomacy alliances wars and backstabbing to change the borders.
The economy is run by players so power comes from the land you hold and the people who follow you instead of kits. When wars happen territory really changes hands so nothing is just cosmetic. Admins say they do not play favorites and there is no pay to win.
