🎮 Big news! Firefrost Gaming is officially live!
Michael and I have been building something special — a Minecraft server network where community matters more than competition.
**What makes us different:**
• 14 servers (modded packs + vanilla + FoundryVTT)
• Every subscriber gets access to EVERY server
• Choose your path: Fire 🔥 (community/passion) or Frost ❄️ (tech/precision)
• Starting at just $1 for The Awakened tier
We're doing a soft launch with 5-20 subscribers to make sure everyone gets the best experience. If you've ever wanted a gaming home that doesn't reset every month and actually values its community, check us out:

Title: [Release] Firefrost Gaming - New Modded Server Network with Dual-Path Philosophy
Post:
Hey FTB community,
We just launched Firefrost Gaming and wanted to share what makes us different.
**The Concept:**
Instead of the usual "donate for perks" model, we built a subscription network where everyone gets access to everything. You choose a path (Fire or Frost) that represents your playstyle, not your wallet size.
**What's Live:**
- 14 servers including Stoneblock 4, ATM10, Create packs, Vanilla, and more
- FoundryVTT for tabletop gaming
- All subscribers access all servers
- Tiers from $1 (The Awakened) to $20/month (Legend)
**Fire Path** 🔥 — Community-focused, magic, passion, creativity
**Frost Path** ❄️ — Tech-focused, precision, engineering, optimization
The path is your identity in the community, not a paywall.
**Soft Launch:** We're starting with 5-20 subscribers to ensure quality and personal attention. If you're tired of servers that reset every month or disappear overnight, check us out.
