Factions -
Description and Rundown -
+ Factions provides anti-grief protection to factions to provide a place to hide, shelter and defend for our users. The plugin allows a factions to claim land of a certain area, this area will then be protected from opposing factions until another captures it or the faction that owns the land uses the unclaim command. It is important to note that fighting on your own land provides the bonus of 30% reduced damage from enemy players.
+ Each player has a maximum of 10 power. When players group together to form a faction a higher maximum power is obtained and they are therefore stronger and can claim a larger amount of land. 1 power is 1 land, unfortunately other factions may claim your land if your land exceeds your power.
+ Dying reduces your power by 4 and your minimum power level can be as low as -10. At this level you are severely threatening your own faction as this reduces the land you can hold by 10 instead of increasing it. Don't worry though, power is regained over time at the rate of 0.4 per minute.
+ Faction homes may be set using a command listing below. It is important to think carefully before placing this home location. Spawn camping IS NOT a rule on our server and we ignore those that think it should be. If you are smart you will place your spawn at a hard to reach location in your faction HQ and if possible away from your chests and armoury.
+ Within factions there are currently two ranks which define a sort of authority within. These are Admin (or owner) of a faction which is labeled in game in front of a faction tag as '+' and Moderator (or assistant) labeled in game as '-'. These ranks have the ability to go to war with another faction, ally or resume neutral status as well as being able to invite and remove members.

Example -
Player One creates a faction called Faction One and invites his friend Player Two. They do well and maintain their 15 land they have claimed.
= Land: 15..........Power: 20..........Max Power: 20
Unfortunately Player Two doesn't log on for a whole week and therefore is removed completely from the faction. Faction One is down on Power and Max Power from this point.
= Land: 15..........Power: 10..........Max Power: 10
There is another faction in the mix, Faction Two. They realise quickly what has happened and use this to their advantage. They decide to claim 5 plots of land that Faction One own.
= Land: 10..........Power: 10..........Max Power: 10
Once again Player One can be assured his land is safe for the time being. Player One is caught in a crossfire between two other factions and dies. This reduces his power by 4 to 6 suggesting to other factions that 4 more of his land may be claimed.
= Land: 10..........Power: 6............Max Power: 10
After the fight one member of Faction Two realises what has happened and instructs his Admin to claim more of Faction One's land.
= Land: 6............Power: 6........... Max Power: 10
An hour passes and Player One is back up to his Maximum power, this suggests that Player One can go and claim 4 more pieces of land.
= Land: 6...........Power: 10 ..........Max Power: 10
