Raiding
Hello once again! In this guide, I will be covering raiding. If you've read my PvP and Thieving guide, you should probably know how I write these guides. If you are a little more barbaric, read on!
Raiding. It is a commonly know term throughout Minecraft servers. Mostly referred to as stealing. I like to think of it as, less of a mission, like thieving would be, and more like a pillage. To my, raiding is the art of stealing AND fighting. It is brutal, and can be very difficult if you do not know what you are getting into. So I will walk you through different scenarios.
In this scenario, I will be covering, once again, factions! First, I'll start off with the basics. Well first you want to type /f show [faction name]. Look at the numbers, it may say something like “27/40/40”. First you must learn what those numbers mean. The first number is the amount of land they have claimed, the second is how much power they have, and the third is their maximum power possible. Look at the last number. The first digit will be the number of people they have, the first two digits is how many people they have it the number is three digits. Why does this matter? Because this will clarify how many times you must kill the members before you can successfully claim the land. In order to do this, the second number must be lower than the first. Once that happens, you can easily claim all their land. Be aware that power does regenerate over time, so you must be determined.
So lets say there is a smaller faction you want to steal from and ultimately destroy. First off, you have to find them. I will not go over how, visit my thieving guide for there are a few ways how. Now that you've found them, look around, look for the entrance. Once you have, I like to reenact the scene from “A Clockwork Orange”, where they stay in front of the door, and once it opens, they all swarm in capturing the people. Thats what we want to do. I like to stay on top of the door, the second it opens kill the person and jump in. Please do not do this alone, but not too big of a group. A large group can cause mistakes, making a faction hide in their base and wait for you to leave. I usually go with one person, that being Kevo. So I usually can do this easily with him. Ok, you're in. Kill everyone in their until their power goes down and you can claim the land. Quickly claim the faction's spawn, and trap them. Have one person keep killing them from their spawn, while the other grabs everything. Look at my chest finding tips in my thieving guide to help you along. Now that you've stolen everything, I personally like to put lava in the factions encasement, making them all leave to get out of the lava hole. Thus disbanding the faction and ruining it.
Now I will cover a large faction. This is much more difficult. First, form a very strong alliance with the largest faction, or second largest if the largest is the slave. In my server, I have a strong alliance with the “RMM” they have 31 people, and are very well supplied. What you want to do is organize an attack, but do not let the slave know, for they may set traps up and lock themselves in. Have all your people get in position, but do not hold them for too long, they are large, and will not wait for your order. Send them all out. Do whatever you can to get inside the base. Oh, and I'd advise making a little base with extra supplies and a bed. So if you die, we can pull a little Persian Immortal effect. Now that you're inside, do not fight this fast. Search the base and take whatever you can. After you have, kill. Kill, kill, and kill some more. It will be a long battle. Take no chances, be safe. Have food, arrows, armor, sword. Read my PvP guide for good fighting strategies and tips. Now share your winnings, for the large clan may be a great help to you. If you manage to get good things in the beginning, shout out a /f home and store it all!
Block Glitches: Stacking blocks under you and jumping can get you up to higher areas. If there is an iron door with a button / lever near it, you can destroy the block, and quickly access the lever, thus opening the door. If you are on top of a trapdoor, you can go into free cam, open it, and have a chance of getting down. Do not use these if the server doesn't permit it.

This is a fun, fallout based adventure. Very fun, very nice, somewhat difficult.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/2383...84-done▬▓/
Being a huge fan of Amnesia, I love this map. When played with the Amnesia texturepack, there is a lot of resemblance, it is a very hard adventure as well.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/3727...downloads/
An interesting, dark adventure. Very creepy due to the underground laboratory. HINT: To the left of the ladder when you first get down, dig the gravel to get torches.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/3214...d-8000-dl/
A fun little puzzle map. Not much to say :I
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/3592...-its-back/
An awesome Pass-It-On map. Tons of inspiration and humor included
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/7928...ngeon-map/
Not sure if I got the right one here, but a huge, HUGE, map. Ridiculously fun and an awesome adventure. If this is the right one, then it is definitely my favorite map.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/3719...downloads/
Lastly, a fun jumping map. THis map is easy to find the routes, gives you a way back if you miss a jump, and you get to run and parkour around a whole entire city.

Texture Packs
Hi guys! In this post I will be showing off some of my favorite texture packs!
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/6935...ted-06jul/
A great HD texturepack. Nice, clean, and original. It keeps the beauty of MineCraft without making everything look too crazy.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/3698...ersion-up/
A cool, fallout looking texture pack. Very nice and different. I like to use it on some adventure maps, and fallout based servers. A must see for Fallout lovers.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/2077...downloads/
Of course, DokuCraft. One of my favorites, with 3 styles there is definitely something in here for everyone. This texture pack keeps nature, and man made structures look phenomenal. A must for all Minecraft users.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1273...date-7911/
The x64 is absolutely astounding. Great graphics, smooth textures, makes Minecraft seem a lot nicer, without risking its blocky originality.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/2672...ustomizer/
AH, the John Smith texture pack. This is very unique due to its customizer, all users can find a nice mix of textures for a look that suits them.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/7274...t-17-beta/
For all those default lovers out there! This texture pack is a replica of the default, but made into a x32 version.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/4630...ture-pack/
A beautiful pack. Everything has a nice, realistic spin to it, making building a bit easier, and making everything look nicer.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/3179...downloads/
Another HD version of the default pack. Although this one stays a bit more true to it. FOr die-hard fans of the default, and HD packs.
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/4553...teamcraft/
A great SteamPunk texture pack. Gives the world that "BioShock: Infinite" feel. Astounding!
