War Declaration Info

⚔️ WW3 SMP: War Declaration Guide

Declaring war is required before you can raid, attack, or damage another team’s claimed land.
This keeps conflict fair, structured, and prevents random griefing.

Below is the official process all players must follow.

📝 1. Requirements to Declare War

A team may declare war if:

• Both teams have claimed land
• There is a valid reason (territory dispute, retaliation, resources, politics, etc.)
• The declaring team has at least 2 active members online during the declaration
• The declaration is made publicly and clearly

📣 2. How to Declare War (Official Format)

A war declaration must be posted in the #war-declarations channel on Discord.

Your message must include:

✔️ 1. Your Team Name

✔️ 2. The Team You Are Declaring War On

✔️ 3. The Reason for War

✔️ 4. The Start Time of the War (minimum 1 day notice)

✔️ 5. The Rules of Engagement (optional but recommended, e.g. no nukes etc) 

📄 3. Example War Declaration

Team Iron Wolves officially declares war on Team Red Legion.
Reason: Red Legion built inside our expansion zone and refused to move.
War begins: 20:30 GMT (1 day from now).
Objective: Destroy their forward base and reclaim the land, unless an agreement can be made. 

Once posted, the war is active at the stated time.

🔥 4. What You Can Do During War

Once war begins, the following actions become allowed ONLY between the two teams involved:

• Raiding enemy bases
• Breaking blocks inside their claimed land
• Stealing items
• Destroying defenses
• PvP on sight
• Using explosives, traps, and weapons
• Tactical sabotage

Anything outside the war (other teams, neutral players, spawn, server mines) remains protected.

🛑 5. What You CANNOT Do

Even during war, the following are still forbidden:

• Using banned SecurityCraft blocks
• Lag machines
• Crashing the server
• Spawn killing repeatedly
• Attacking neutral teams
• Using exploits or glitches
• Destroying admin structures

War is meant to be tactical, not chaotic.

🕊️ 6. Ending a War

A war ends when:

• One team surrenders
• Both teams agree to peace
• A victory objective is completed
• Staff intervene due to rule violations

A peace agreement must be posted in the same channel where the war was declared.

🛡️ 7. Staff Oversight

Staff may:

• Reject unclear or troll declarations
• Pause or end wars if rules are broken
• Enforce punishments for illegal raids
• Clarify grey areas

Their decisions are final
