Minecraft Factions, with a team to build for

United Factions is a Minecraft factions server for Java and Bedrock players. Find a team, claim a home and decide what you’ll bring to it: a good build, a busy shop or help when a war starts.

There’s an important difference from some factions servers. We use Lands, not classic Factions power. Claims have roles and upkeep, and player lands have specific protection against destructive attacks outside active wars.

Build a home your team can look after

Claimed chunks give your faction a place to build and control who can use it. Start with the space you need, set member permissions and keep gold available for upkeep. More territory costs more to maintain; an unfunded claim can be lost.

UF Strength is a faction ranking score. It isn’t a pool of claim power that works like the power system you may know from another server.

Learn how claims and upkeep work.

Trade, gather and work on your skills

The main economy uses physical gold. You carry it, trade it and set some aside for your faction. Player shops give you a place to sell to other players, while mcMMO adds skill progression as you play.

You don’t have to make every session a fight. Gathering supplies, running a shop and improving the base all give you something useful to do with your team.

Explore the gold economy or browse player shops.

Know when your base can be attacked

Inside player lands, TNT damage, entity griefing, piston griefing and fire spread are disabled outside active wars. During a live war, those protections are lifted.

Defenders must be online when war is declared. There are 10 minutes to prepare, and logging out doesn’t stop a war once it has begun. Good permissions and a funded treasury still matter between wars: these protections are not a promise that you can never lose land or items.

Read the war basics before picking a fight.

Is this your kind of factions server?

United Factions may suit you if you enjoy a shared base, player trading and PvP with a defined war system. You can arrive with friends or look for a faction after joining.

If you specifically want classic power-based claiming or unrestricted TNT raids against claimed bases at any time, that’s not the experience described here. Why Play United Factions? takes a closer look at different ways to spend a session.

What do supporters get?

Supporter tiers include cosmetics and convenience perks, such as shorter teleport waits and longer shop durations. Calling every reward “cosmetic-only” would be misleading. Compare the supporter benefits before deciding what fair progression means to you.
