Ashes of Minecraft
Server Address: ashesofminecraft.beast.mc
Server Version : v1.10.2
Ashes of Minecraft offers a glimpse of what the Ashes of Creation world will look like.
In AoM, players can work together to build up their factions. Developing their small village into a sprawling Metropolis through the teamwork of Adventurers and Artisans.
What are Adventurers? What are Artisans? Well, I'm glad I asked!
Adventurers explore the world, searching the many caves and caverns that litter San'dal. By killing monsters and looting treasures, adventurers can bring vast riches to their respective factions. Only by contributing to a faction can it evolve, increasing its territory and power.
Artisans are the crafters of San'dal, by invoking the powers of creation and worldedit, Artisans can build the most fantastical of Metropolises! Of course, Artisans don't start the game with such OP powers, only by increasing the level of their faction may they gain access, and only within their faction's city.
Both Adventurers and Artisans alike can play AoM normally within their faction's Zone of Influence. Inside of their Zone of Influence, players may build freeholds with whatever resources they can harvest from within - players cannot take from outside of their ZOI.
Okay, so everything is pointing towards levelling my faction, how do I do that? Well! I'm glad I asked!
Levelling a faction is easy; for the small price off $5.9- *AHK!* "Ouch!" *COUGH* "Stop!" *POW*
Uhh... Sorry about that, now where was I? Ah! Levelling a faction, it's easy, simply complete quests for the various villagers within your city, contribute resources, or... more, possibly, we're still thinking of things.
What can I expect from AoM in the future?
We plan on changing from 'faction based' to 'node based', in the future we would like to see players able to explore the world, come across a village/node and be able to develop it into a Metropolis. This process would be automatic, and players would be able to fight against each other in territorial wars and such. Unfortunately, mod development takes time. Fortunately, we have a lot of time! Until 2019/2020 in fact.
I don't like Minecraft, is there any way I can get involved?
Yes! There are a bunch of different ways to get involved, we're in need of writers to create stories and quests, artists for textures, web art, more? and fan art is always welcome! Programmers will probably be needed, I want to finish design and also get the server playing as described above before starting active development. When I say we're in need, I don't mean that we're recruiting, just that there's more than enough space for the whole community to use the server as a medium to bring their thoughts and ideas to life - this is a community project, not a traditional Minecraft server.
Everyone is welcome to join the discord and share ideas, even if it's just to speculate how things will work in Ashes of Creation.

Darckwar has given us an incredible gift to start off the server, check out his Dwarven Stronghold, Dolmiir, below!___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Massive thanks to Darckwar for this, it's just amazing.
Update! The port is a WIP, we've also started work on the treasury and the first portal. Not only that but we've made good progress in the quests and npcs within the dwarven city, Dolmiir. It will act as an introduction and tutorial for players. Take a look!
And another look at the front of Dolmiir.

Or we could make a big ol' orgy server on Second Life! \o/
You'd have to link it If we're setting up a community server up though, I'd like it to be only for the ashes community, idk what your server is for or what rules you have.
Hmm...
What if......?
Hmm.
Would you rather I wipe it and start new or leave it how I have, with a few large cities (I've built a Viking theme port, an Elven city with a giant tree, Dwarf city under a mountain) and various other landmarks scattered around?
I could put what ever plug-in you all wanted.
Can you link me your server so I can join? And is it running forge?
Edit: Oh, and what version of MC is it?
I'm partial to Witchery + Thaumcraft myself if your not running a pack or it's vanilla. I'll play on anything would just like to know.
What version of MC do you play?
Their 1.7.6 i think though in version number for base MC...
I don't mind trying out Minecraft if it's an AoC community thing.
I'm not a very good builder, I just enjoy casually building stuff, messing with redstone and talking to people. I can try my hand at modding again too; if there's any custom stuff we need.
Minecraft is fun. If you like Terreria then you should enjoy it
I checked them out, witchery supports 1.7.10 and thaumcraft supports 1.8.9
The version isn't a problem considering you can just select which version you want to run from the MC launcher. I'll see about setting up a discord or something later today so that we can discuss version and mods etc.
If someone else has a better server, we should totally do that one.
This is the discord, I've literally just created it so there's nothing set up
https://discord.gg/YR2BbDd
Of course, if I started playing.... it would cut into my forum time....
Looks good, it's version 1.7.10... it's looking like a lot of mods are stuck at that version of MC so we might go with that?
Who needs forum time when... okay, who am I kidding?
I'm going to pretend the last part of that statement isn't there xD
It'll be free of course, though I'll probably put up a donation thing for server upkeep and whatnot.
It seems we have a few people interested in this, I'll see about starting a server today... there are 2 hours until the stream so I need to occupy myself with something. I have a local server running but it's just that, drop by the discord if you have a chance and we can talk about what we want on the server. I feel bad for the one person that joined earlier, they probably joined expecting a thriving community only to find me not even aware they joined
This pack seems to have a bit of everything running around in it. But I don't wanna pigeonhole anyone so I'd say everyone check it out and complain if applicable.
Edit: This seems a little... overkill tbh. A lot of things going on, it looks like there are quests and everything included. And with over 200 mods things might get a little laggy Just my opinion though.
Unfortunately, there isn't much I can do about that... Maybe it won't be too bad? You'll have to join to give it a go once I get the server running!
The people working on that pack tend to go through and optimize/rework what they can to fit together as best as possible. So the only real answer I got is "We won't know til we try but if anyone has a better idea speak up please."
