Claims with pressure
Lands handles claims, members, roles, allies and enemies. Upkeep means territory has a cost, so map control is a strategic decision rather than a land-grab screenshot.

Why play United Factions?
Because the systems create consequences. Your first claim costs upkeep, your faction roles decide who can be trusted, your gold has to move through the world, and every raid or alliance can become part of a public season story instead of disappearing into chat history.

Old-school soul, modern proof
A faction server should make choices matter.
United Factions is not trying to be a lobby with a Factions label on top. It is built around the feeling that made the genre work in the first place: a base you care about, teammates you have to trust, rivals watching your borders, and enough public record that the season becomes something people can follow.
Raids with counterplay
PvP and base defence matter during active wars. Player lands have specific protection between wars; permissions and upkeep still need looking after.
Public proof
Delayed, privacy-safe snapshots power faction pages, player profiles, rankings, mcMMO summaries and UF Strength without exposing coordinates, inventories, balances or live war movement.
Live snapshot
Proof, not promises.
These numbers come from the public, privacy-aware server snapshot. They are useful for exploration and comparison, not for live raid intelligence.
The loop
From first claim to season legacy.
Claim
Pick territory you can defend and afford. Claims are protected chunks, but careless borders and bad roles can undo good walls.
Fund
Gold stays physical. It moves through inventories, treasuries and upkeep instead of becoming invisible menu money.
Recruit
Use Discord, profiles and the forum to find players, then trust them carefully in-game. A faction is a social system before it is a wall.
Fight
Rivalries become raids, defenses, captures and diplomacy. The best fights create pressure without crossing into abuse.
Remember
Season One keeps public history: rankings, profiles, rewards, guides and stories that survive beyond a single reset.
Choose your path
Your first hour has more than one good answer.
Pick the role that sounds like you. The content below is fully readable without JavaScript; the tabs simply make the same choices faster.
Build something worth defending.
Start with a shared workshop or a compact base. Check the claim border, decide who can use each area and leave enough gold for upkeep before adding more rooms.
Raid with timing, not spam.
Prepare with your team for declared wars. Player lands have protection outside active wars, so learn the declaration and preparation rules before bringing raid supplies.
Win people before you win chunks.
Allies, enemies, member trust and Discord recruitment shape the season before the first wall falls. The website gives factions public profiles and safe recruitment routes while Lands remains the source of real in-game ownership.
Turn playtime into visible progress.
Work on your mcMMO skills and faction projects at your own pace. Use the public rankings when you want to follow the competition, not as a checklist for your first login.
Make gold move through the world.
Gather supplies, stock a player shop and agree what the faction needs next. Keep your trading money separate from the gold set aside for upkeep.
Fair by design

FAQ
Before you join.
Why should I play United Factions instead of another Minecraft Factions server?
United Factions combines a shared base, player trading and declared wars. It uses Lands claims and upkeep, not classic Factions power. Choose it if that mix suits the way your group likes to play.
Is United Factions pay to win?
Supporter tiers include cosmetics and convenience, including shorter teleport waits and longer shop durations. Compare the actual rewards before deciding whether they fit your definition of non-pay-to-win.
Can Java and Bedrock players join?
Yes. Java players can add play.unitedfactions.net directly. Bedrock players use the same address with port 19132, with device-specific instructions on the Play page.
Does United Factions use classic Factions power?
No. The current setup is Lands-based and uses UF Strength for public comparison. UF Strength combines territory, community, Lands progression and verified war record without exposing live raid intelligence.
Are raids and TNT enabled?
Player lands are protected from TNT, entity griefing, piston griefing and fire spread outside active wars. Those protections are lifted during a live war. Read the war guide and rules before attacking.
