FAQ & Rules

The Frontier is an exploration-first Minecraft survival nations server focused on discovery, player-built settlements, grounded world lore, and a deliberately paced progression system.

The Frontier runs Fabric 1.20.1 with a curated Vanilla+ modpack.

Use the Join page to submit your Minecraft username, Discord username, play style, and why you want to become a Settler. Applications are reviewed by the Frontier team.

No. The Frontier resource pack is optional to connect, but it is highly recommended because it provides the intended custom item names, models, and atmosphere.

Yes. Install Tree Harvester through the current Modrinth pack, add it to your pack from Modrinth, or place the provided mod file into your mods folder before connecting.

Players can form settlements and nations, mark and govern territory, establish laws, trade, negotiate, and compete for influence. Leadership also carries responsibility for the people living under that nation.

Absolutely. Independent players can become mercenaries, bounty hunters, outlaws, traders, explorers, or hermits and still take part in the wider world.

Clearly marked national or settlement territory is protected. Unmarked property and supplies outside protected claims may be looted, so mark what belongs to your people.

Small practical farms such as sugarcane or bamboo are allowed when fully covered by a building, wall, floor, mountain, or foliage. Iron farms, raid farms, string dupes, and massive industrial farms are banned.

No. Using freecam to look through walls and using duplication exploits such as string duping are prohibited.

Artifacts must be carried, cannot be hidden in ender chests or vaults, and are limited to one per player. They may be traded, sold, or gifted. Staff may reclaim or replace one that is deliberately hidden or destroyed.

The Nether is reached through the server's Portal Igniter progression rather than immediate vanilla access. Major dimensions and milestones open according to the server's event schedule.
