If you love Minecraft, planes, tanks, and guns, InvictaMC is for you. You can fly in the skies of your own battleground and fight against other players to become the ultimate winner!

Furthermore, you can use them as a scouting tool if you're looking for an enemy base or just want some aerial recon before engaging the enemy in battle.

Tanks are another very important vehicle in any war. They're used for destroying foes and protecting allies. They can transport supplies, fuel, and people across the battlefield to keep everyone fighting at their best.

This is a towny server as well, so any damage done by explosives will naturally regenerate, so you won’t lose your town even if it is bombed during a war! The best part about this server is that it's completely free to play.

Minecraft war-style servers tips

Tip 1) Download server resource packs

To have the best experience on each server, you likely will have to download the server resource packs. It should normally automatically give you the chance to download the texture pack; however, if that doesn't happen, you can usually get it from the server website.

Tip 2) How to use a gun

When you use your mouse, pressing LMB (left mouse button) will usually see the gun being reloaded. Holding down the RMB (right mouse button) causes bullets to be fired; you aim just like you normally would in Minecraft.

Sometimes, it can be hard to see your enemies when shooting at them from far away, but depending on the gun you're using, you may be able to scope in by pressing the Shift key.

Tip 3) Be careful in-game

You will normally automatically be placed into a scary environment due to the nature of war-style servers. Be very careful of who you trust, as anyone can stab you in the back. If you lose one battle, don't worry about it too much; the chances are good that you'll win the next one. Just keep trying, and eventually, everything will work out for the best!
