Explain the core concept of Factions better - Raiding with claims
Submitted by redstoneisgreat
Suggestion
It was mentioned that a new tutorial system may be added next season.
To me, the core concept of Factions is this
Players can create "Factions", groups that can range from 1 to 20 players. A faction can claim land, but claimed land is not completely safe. Claimed bases can be raided either with TNT cannons, or by killing the enemy faction to lower their power and overclaim their land. At least to me, a simple concept, but with an incredible amount of depth for more experienced players.
I think this may be explained in the tutorial video, but it is otherwise not explained much. /faq mentions blueprints, but it doesn't mention that you can hand build cannons, makes NO mention of overclaiming, and it doesn't mention specifically the concept of "Raiding with claims"
I think it would be good if this concept of "Raiding with Claims" was explained in some way. I would argue it's what sets this server apart from DonutSMP, most Lifesteal servers, or other PVP-enabled SMPs (which are what newer MC players are familiar with).
I would also love to see new players explore the gamemode deeper - consider things such as "How can I make my base stronger?". For example, using water on all 6 sides makes your base harder to raid (a hybrid cannon is required), but I find very few bases that even have 1 water wall. Epic's video did mention to use water to protect your base, so this could also be something to bring up in a tutorial.
