Overlords 1 was a modded Minecraft server that used the custom-made Overlords modpack. The server was alive for about a month, and it had a rich and eventful history. Despite the modpack's focus on the skeleton fighters in the overlords modpack, the server is most notable for the innovation of aircraft carriers and the banning of the Slime Sling from Tinker's construct.
History
Early Island Battles
At the beginning of the server, all players gathered resources in a cave located about 500m north of spawn, which would later become Tukton. Inevitably, a group of people left the initial cave to sail across the ocean and find a new home. These players would land on the main island of The Isles to set up shop. During this time the sides of the players would switch between the island and Tukton. The island base was constantly undergoing famine and resources were at an all time low. Tukton also was in need of food, so they raided The Isles in hopes that they would secure goods and resources.
The Isles continued to fortify the island, placing punji sticks and coast walls all across the island, but flufyking lost interest in the server and Tukton would not attack again. The unfortunate living conditions of The Isles eventually caused its residents to move out and set up new bases.
The Air Force
After some time passed on the server, Wikaros built the first airship on the server. The airships would catch on among the more technologically advanced nations and soon Cflip_ and Wikaros would collaborate on building new airships. Cflip_, Wikaros and jusipat flew the airship to Wawful947's western mountain settlement. Wawful947 would occasionally get rides on the airship. On one such occasion, after dropping off Wawful947 in a distant plain from his home, Cflip_ and jusipat followed Wawful947 along his walk home. Wikaros also brought his airship to follow Wawful which made him all the more nervous. Eventually the pilots of the ships would put Wawful "under arrest" without cause, and he was brought on board to testify. Wawful947 eventually became angry and used a handheld explosive to blow a huge hole in the side of the airship and make his escape.
The airship designs continued to be refined, and a new standard ship design was created which included a bomb bay in the floor. About 3 of these ships were created and a massive aircraft carrier was built near Cflip_'s base to safely bring the small ships to their target. Unfortunately the aircraft carrier reached the limits of what the server could handle, and thus was seldom used. The mini ships, however, would find success in floating above Wawful947's home and dropping bombs, leaving the fortress in ruins.
Slime Sling Conflict
The constant attacks on his home would bring Wawful947 to the boiling point with rage. He discovered the cheap but powerful EFLN handheld explosives and used the slime sling to quickly get away from anyone trying to attack. Using these tools, he would attack the aircraft carrier as it sat in the construction zone and eventually targeted Cflip_'s home itself. During a particularly violent attack on Cflip_'s home, Wawful947 got stuck in an alloy smeltery and quit the game when Cflip_ was about to make his counterattack. jusipat, being the admin of this server, would ban Wawful947 for breaking the combat log rule.
