⚔️ Sieges: Wars are conducted by means of sieges. A siege occurs when a nation attacks a town.
🌍 Inclusive: The whole server is involved, with no opt-outs. So a nation can conquer the world!.
🤖 Automatic: Sieges are started by players and automatically managed by the plugin. Daily staff management of sieges is not required.
🚶 Slow Paced: Each siege consists of 7 hours fighting time, spread over the course of a weekend.
🏙️ Non-Destructive: Towns cannot be damaged or stolen from during sieges. Towns can get extra protection by activating the Peaceful option, which makes them immune to sieges, but vulnerable to instant-capture.

SiegeWar was initially developed by Goosius1, starting in the summer of 2019.
Originally SiegeWar was a fork of Towny, being built directly into Towny.
SiegeWar was later transformed by LlmDl & Warriorrr into the plugin which exists today. This work took about 2 months, and involved adding many many API events to Towny, and changing the entire SiegeWar database to use Towny metadata. The plugin was released in January 2021.
Following the release of the plugin, many new features and improvements were added, with key contributions from Goosius1, LlmDl, and Warriorrr. Multiple other developers have contributed also, notably Ceeedric.
Special thanks to the servers CCNET, DatBlock, and EarthPol, who pioneered the use of the system, and have provided much valuable information, feedback, and bug reports.
Goosius1 was the maintainer of this repo for the TownyAdvanced org, until his retirement from Minecraft plugin development in October 2021.
SiegeWar is now maintained by the TownyAdvanced org.
