I'm a real fan of mods like minecolony and i also like upgrading everything. So why not put them together to create TownCraft!

TownCraft

Description

Basically, this plugin is where you can create settlements by simply placing an enderchest, putting resources in the enderchest, and right clicking signs to build buildings! But it won't stop there! This plugin will also have protection for the settlement, a system where players can join a settlement, and a custom permissions system, including leaders and soldiers of dwarven or orc settlements! There can also be wars over settlements to see whether it is going to be dwarven or orcish for the time! This plugin will be a great addition for a server as it will add a great rpg feel to it, over the epic struggle between orcs and dwarfs!
