War
War - Minecraft PVP Arenas (TDM, CTF & more!)
Version: v1.9
War lets you create warzones, arenas that host team deathmatch and capture-the-flag battles.
Features:
As a player, you get a fast-paced PVP experience in SMP.
- Join a battle by entering through the warzone lobby. There is one gate per team (team diamond, gold or iron): step in to join that team.
- Your inventory is saved when you join a battle, and restored when you exit.
- When you die inside a warzone, you get instantly teleported back to your spawn, and one life is taken from your team's life pool. When that pool runs out, the other teams score a point!
- Steal the enemy team flag to score for your team.
- Fight over monuments, control points that, when captured, restore health to your teammates.
- Return the cake home to score a point for your team and refill your life pool.
- Capture the bomb and run for your enemy's spawn to blow it up. Careful! If you get attacked at close range you'll blow up.
As a warzone maker, you have total control.
- Take advantage cool landscape features or existing player-build structures and incorporate them in new warzones.
- Tons of options: friendly-fire, auto-assign, turn off PVP outside warzones, define respawn loadouts specific to each zone, and more!
War lets you keep mayhem contained in the warzones.
- All the blocks in a zone are reset at the end of every battle.
- Players are prevented from entering or leaving a zone - except through the designated warzone lobby - by a magic glass wall.
- A warhub can be created to link all your zones together.

@tommytony
thank you :)
@agentsix1
Your players need the war.player permission node.
@XeonG8
Yes chat config (including localization support), better team name/material management and auto-balancing are on my huge todo. :)
@tappestry
Thanks for the report. I'll try to fix the realdeaths:on respawn inventory issue for the v1.7.1 release.
@DingusHD
/say and /broadcast aren't part of War. Are you saying War's command prevention in warzones is broken?
As for classes, check http://war.tommytony.com/instructions. You can change everything through in-game commands. Fill your inventory with the class' items then use "/zonecfg loadout:default" to change the default inv. Add more with "/zonecfg loadout:warrior". Remove with "/zonecfg loadout:warrior". Make them team-specific with "/teamcfg loadout:default", etc.
Oh nvm i see there is kinda a config, but where can i edit the classes?
Can you make the config a little more easy? Like a config file?
Found a bug! :D When i installed the plugin on 1.2.3 my /say, /broadcast and auto message all don't work. say and broadcast give me internal errors! Please fix this, thanks.
Hey,
Great plugin. We are having an issue where once someone has been killed the first time they can be 1 hit every time after that. It may be heros, but we also put on the real deaths to see if that would resolve the issue, it did but then when someone respawns back into the arena they do not get any items back. Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated :-)
Thanks
Much easier to setup than pvp arena.. thats nonsense
I use navy blue for the flag color light blue sucks, only then you get dark blue chat, and its not very clear to see who the players are in that team, which also sucks.. would be nice to get some config control on this stuff..
and global announcements, for winners, or player joins etc configurable. Maybe an alert to say when the teams are imbalanced out into main chat, or at least into War >
bug found
i got it all set up then found out that only ops can join :\
i have joined u in the bug hunt :) thanks for the update

I'll take the time to answer you all soon, but for the moment I just wanted to let you know that I got a dev build together that seems to be working for 1.1-R6 and 1.2.3 builds.
New! Try out War v1.7.1-PREVIEW #34 for Craftbukkit 1.1-R6 and 1.2.3 compatibility.
Don't forget to make backup and to report back with your issues. Thanks! :)

Craving an update over here :O
Update For R5 Please,Looks cool =]
Update for R5 please :)
is this plugin gonna be updated for bukkit r4
Hey i have a problem where blue team ONLY keeps dying in 1 hit, regardless of what they are doing. Any solutions?
This is an amazing plugin to a PVP server. My friends and I enjoyed it very much. But could you add a Killstreak announce with some items got to this plugin? Because I also have Flan's WW2 Guns mod installed and I don't want to give too much items to players to let them take guns easily. I will be very happy to see this feature to be include in the future version.
@tommytony
Please add custom classes - by right-clicking of signs in the pregame lobby - as a feature! This would perfect this already amazing plugin.
Thank You! Mike
