First Steps
Claiming Land
Land is protected using Towny. Join or found a town to claim territory and protect your builds from griefing. Talk to existing town mayors to join an established settlement, or use /town new <name> to found your own.
See Land Claims for a full command reference.
The Nether Express
The server has an extensive nether highway network — the Nether Express — connecting most settlements. Travel via the nether is 8× faster than the overworld. Access the main hub from the Ravenport train station at spawn.
Voting
Vote on server lists to earn token rewards and extra claim blocks. Voting links are available on the Community Hub at ravenkraft.org.
Live Map
The Ravenkraft Dynmap shows the full world, online players, city markers, and land claim boundaries in real time.
