Dear Creators! This is the World of Warships Community Contributors Program!

The NA region is currently supported by an amazing group of CCs, the full list can be found here.

Program management:

The World of Warships CC Program is managed by a designated international team within Wargaming.net. The CC Program Management Team reserves the right to:

Change and update the rules of the program with notification through the CC Program Discord;


Resolve any escalated issues and make final decisions on all CC Program affairs.

That said, the core principle of the CC Program is mutual respect and constant interaction between World of Warships and Community Contributors.

If you feel like doing that, and want to possibly save time for the future, please also include:

Your date of birth

IMPORTANT: submissions without any already created content on World of Warships will be dismissed. We believe that the Program is good for those who have already made the first steps into World of Warships content creation. While we want to promote players new to content creation and just beginning their journey down that particular road, we do expect to see your commitment in the form of content produced on your own.

Now, the criteria are very simple: the quality of your content and the potential we see in it. Of course, your number of followers and subscribers does matter, but if we see great stuff with little exposure, we will be happy to promote it. Don't be shy!

The regional manager will then assess your application and supporting content, and make a decision on your application. This can take some time to occur, however once completed the decision will be communicated to you over Forum PM. If you are declines, we will provide you some advice and areas to work on going forward.

Any of these is a plus, but might not be necessary in particular cases:

Respect other viewpoints and be able to debate topics with sufficient reasoning;
