This server is called TwinFront and it runs on Minecraft Forge 1.20.1. The whole idea is that there are two rival clans. One clan is in the north and the other clan is in the south. In the middle there is a super dangerous NPC island with risky loot. Between the two main islands there is a huge ocean so you really have to think about boats raids and navigation.
The server uses more than 40 mods. The main ones are Create for automation and factories and TACZ for modern guns and tactical fights. Because of this battles are not just spam hitting. You actually need strategy and teamwork. People have to coordinate attacks defend land and try to control territory.
There is an AutoModpack system so the modpack downloads and updates automatically when you join. You do not have to set up the mods yourself. You just hop in and it gets handled for you.
The server is not open 24 7. During holidays it is online from late morning to late evening. Outside holidays it has different hours on weekdays and weekends. The owners are still recruiting more players because the two clans need to be more balanced. Right now it feels like a good time to join if you want to help shape the war and pick a side.

Brand New Towny Factions SMP
I found ArcticMC SMP and it is a chill survival server that mixes Towny and factions. It only launched a couple days ago so it feels fresh and easy to get started.
You can build a town and claim your space then make alliances or go for territory like a real faction server. PVP matters here but they use an honor system that is explained in their rules.
It also has McMMO skills so you level up while you play and unlock special abilities as you grow. There are custom items too and they even have furniture that is entity based with plans to limit it per chunk to help with lag.
The world uses Tectonic generation so the terrain looks really realistic with big mountains and valleys. The community is calm and friendly so it is more about building and vibing instead of nonstop chaos.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPPuffer SMP Strict Whitelist Survival
Puffer SMP is a long term survival server that is all about community. It is meant for people who actually want to stick around and play with others.
The world is built to last so your progress is not getting wiped all the time. The gameplay feels inspired by Hermitcraft with an economy and player shops plus a shopping district and big builds.
People team up trade and work on group projects. There are events too and it sounds like they try to keep it natural instead of forcing you to be active.
This server uses a strict whitelist application. The point is to keep out griefers and trolls and to make sure members are mature respectful and serious about joining. They are looking for 18 plus players including builders redstoners explorers and casual grinders.
They also say they have stable uptime and active moderation to keep things fair and chill.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPModded Squad PvP With Weekly Events
Frontline Combat is a modded team based PvP server that feels like squad battles and battlefield style fights.
It runs regular events every week. The staff keeps trying to make each event better and they use their own custom mods and content.
The server is Java only and it is looking for more players to join and help grow the community.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAustralia Vanilla Anarchy No Rules
I found this server called LegacyMC and it is a raw vanilla anarchy survival world. There are basically no rules and you can play however you want.
It has no land protection and no teleporting. PvP is on and griefing and raiding are allowed so anything you build can get found and destroyed.
The world is meant to last with no resets and no admin messing with stuff. It started in June 2025 so it still feels like a newer place where you can make a real mark.
The server runs on dedicated hardware in Australia so it should feel smooth for Australia and New Zealand players. There is no monetisation and no pay to win and they say donations are not needed.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPQ-Craft Adult SMP Forever World Vibes
Q-Craft is a small survival server for adults only and it is trying to bring back the old school SMP feeling. People build and explore together in a forever world and it is not one of those chaotic PvP or anarchy style places.
The server started near the end of August 2025 and it has player run elections plus shops and events. There is a second election happening right now so new players can jump in and help decide what comes next.
To join you have to do a small application in their Discord so they can see if you fit the group and what you want from the SMP. The server uses a custom datapack and some quality of life mods but none of it is required and you can play fully vanilla.
The rules are the normal friendly survival kind like no stealing no griefing and no cheating. There are also a few small content creators around and they seem to want more people to play and hang out.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
