Understanding the Nations and War Systems
Nations System
What is a Nation?
A nation is a player-created faction with:
- •Territory: Protected chunks
- • Members: Players with ranks
- • Bank: Shared money pool
- •Relationships: Allies and enemies
- •Portals: Portals are restricted to Nations and can only lead to the spawn or allied portals
Creating a Nation
Use /ncreate to create a nation with a unique name, tag (2-4 characters), and color.
Ranks & Permissions
| Rank | Permissions |
|---|---|
| Leader | All permissions |
| Officer | Invite, kick, claim, build |
| Member | Build, interact, containers |
Players can have multiple ranks simultaneously. If ANY rank grants a permission, you have it.
Territory & Claims
Chunk System
The world is divided into chunks (32x32 blocks):
🌲 Unclaimed
Anyone can build
🛡️ Claimed
Protected by a nation
⚠️ Contested
Under attack during war
⚔️ Captured
Taken by attackers
Claiming
Stand in a chunk and use /nclaim to claim it. Use /nunclaim to unclaim.
Protection
Protected (Non-members):
- ❌ Breaking/placing blocks
- ❌ Opening containers
- ❌ Using doors, buttons, levers
Allowed (Members):
- ✅ Build and break freely
- ✅ Access containers
- ✅ Use all interactive blocks
Travel & Teleportation
⚠️ Important: Limited Teleportation
Ygdrasil features a realistic travel system with very limited teleportation to encourage exploration, territory control, and strategic positioning.
Available Portals
🌐 Spawn Portal
A portal located at spawn that provides basic travel access to all players.
🏛️ City Portal (Tier 1+)
- • Each Tier 1 city can build one portal
- • Can only connect to spawn or allied nation portals
- • Strategic resource for nations
🚫 No Teleport Commands
To maintain server balance and encourage meaningful travel, the following commands are NOT available:
/tpa (teleport to player)/tpahere (teleport player to you)/back (return to previous location)/spawn (teleport to spawn)/home (set/teleport to homes)/warp (warp points)🗺️ World Size
The Ygdrasil world is 3072 × 3072, creating a vast but manageable territory for nations to claim and explore.
💡 Travel Tips
- • Build roads between your territories for faster travel
- • Use mounts from the Custom Mount System to travel faster
- • Protect your nation's portal as a strategic asset
- • Plan supply lines and defensive positions carefully
- • Ally with nations to access their portal network
Diplomacy
🤝 ALLY

- • Can join wars together
- • Must be mutual
⚔️ ENEMY

🤐 NEUTRAL

Set relationships via /nmenu → NATIONS → Click nation → Set Ally/Enemy
War System
Overview
Large-scale conflicts where attackers capture defender territory. The attackers win when they reach 1,000 points!
War Phases
Phase 1: PRE-WAR (5 minutes)
- • War declared, participants notified
- • Defenders vote for VIP (War General)
- • Allies can join either side
- • No combat yet
Phase 2: ACTIVE WAR (20 minutes)
- • Combat begins, territory capture enabled
- • All kills count toward score
- • If the attacker can reach 1,000 points they win otherwise if they can't reach it within 20 minutes they lose
- • If time expires, highest score wins
Phase 3: POST-WAR (24 hour cooldown)
- • War ends, winner announced
- • Defeated nation on cooldown
- • Territory is rolled back and rebuilt
Scoring
| Action | points |
|---|---|
| Regular Kill | 10 |
| VIP Kill (War General) | 50 |
| VIP Defender Kill | 25 |
| Territory Capture | 1000/number of claims |
Score Multipliers: Smaller teams get bonus points (up to 2x) to balance fights.
Territory Capture
How to Capture:
- Stand in enemy territory (must be attacker)
- Use
/ncapto start - Stay in chunk with teammates
- More attackers = faster capture
- Defenders can contest and reverse progress
Progress: Base 0.5% per second, modified by player count difference and number of claims in the defending faction. Max 3 simultaneous captures per war.
Declaration Requirements
- • Use
/nwar declare <nation> - • Must have the war permission
- • Both nations need 3+ players online
- • Neither nation in active war
- • Target not under a recent war cooldown
