Greetings Warriors of Calradia!

Today, we’re raising our sails to celebrate the creativity and dedication of our modding community. We're thrilled to announce the War Sails Modding Competition, running from 14 August to 22 November, with more than €30,000 in prizes up for grabs!War Sails Modding Competition In collaboration with Nexus Mods and ModDB, the competition features three contests, each offering a different way to leave your mark on War Sails.First up, the Conversion Mod Contest. Create total or partial conversion mods that utilize War Sails, taking advantage of naval campaign travel and exciting naval battles. Bring naval gameplay into different time periods, different worlds, or utilize the Native Base.

Next, the 3D Art Contest invites you to become a shipwright. Build anything from humble rowboats and hardworking merchant vessels to mighty warships built to command the seas. Your ship can come from any era, culture, or corner of your imagination.

Finally, the Scene Design Contest will challenge creators to create Seaborne Village Raid scenes. Ships strike the shore, warriors surge from their decks, and the battle for the beach begins. We’re looking for scenes that capture the chaos, atmosphere, and excitement of a coastal assault.

Community voting will follow in late November, giving everyone the opportunity to discover, play, and celebrate the creations submitted throughout the competition.


Following a period of judging by the TaleWorlds developers, we will announce the winners of the competition in January.

The legacy of these entries will also extend beyond the event itself. Conversion mods and Ships will open new horizons for War Sails players. At the same time, submitted vessels and Seaborne Village Raid scenes will be shared as open-source resources, allowing them to inspire and enrich future War Sails mods.

Join us on the Mount & Blade Modding Discord on Monday at 20:00 CEST / 18:00 GMT / 2:00 PM EDT / 11:00 AM PDT for an introductory stream about the competition.

We cannot wait to see the worlds you imagine, the ships you launch, and the shores you bring to life. Visit the link below for the full competition breakdown.
