Heyo people!
April has now started, and with it comes a new Community Contest for one of you to leave their mark in Solasta II! As a heads-up we're almost done selecting winners from the previous contest and we'll be announcing them soon. We haven't forgotten about it, no sir, not at all! (anxiously flips through pages like a DM going through their session notes to find the name of that one random NPC the party decided to hyperfixate on four sessions ago).
Read faster, puny Community Lead. Your people demand to know their victors.
Before we start, don't forget to wishlist Solasta II on Steam - it helps us a ton!
Community Contest - Trades & Sails
Solasta II's second Community Contest is now live! Fancy yourself the captain of a merchant ship? This contest will give you the opportunity of having your boat anchored in the port of Caer Mar, one of the largest cities in Neokos. Name your captain, name your ship, let us know what goods you're carrying and describe the emblem on your sails!
What is this Community Contest?
Trades & Sails is the second of many community events where anyone can participate to get their ideas implemented in-game. Trades & Sails is about implementing a Merchant Ship that you will find in Solasta II anchored in the port of Caer Mar. The winner will have his boat implemented in-game and available for anyone to find.
Want to participate? Simply click on the image and it will take you to the form!
What are the questions?
- What name do you want to appear in the credits if you win
- What's your Email Address (so we can contact you if you win)
- What's your captain's name (needs to be high-fantasy friendly)
- What's your boat's name (20 characters max)
- Describe your boat's emblem (we will design it according to your description)
- What's your emblem primary & secondary colors
- What trade goods is your ship carrying (70 characters max)
These questions are all explained in more details inside the submission form.
When does it start, when does it end?
It starts now (Tuesday April 8th 2025) and ends in 2 weeks, Tuesday April 22nd!
What are the prizes?
Well, have we something for you! Winners get the following:
- 1x Steam Key of Solasta II (playable once Early Access launches)
- 1x PDF copy of the Solasta Revised Campaign Sourcebook
- Their submission will be added in-game
- Their name will be added in the credits of Solasta II as Community Contributor
- The “Bard” role in our official Solasta Discord Server
What is it that you bring in this fine city, captain?
What are the rules?
- Please do not participate more than once
- Please do not submit text from existing books / games / etc.
- Please note that we may slightly adapt the text you submit
- By participating, you agree to Tactical Adventures using the content you submitted. The legal guidelines can be downloaded here, if you’re proficient in legalese and want to dig into the document.
TL;DR: If you submit something, you allow us to use it! Please only participate if you’re fine with all of the above.
How will I know if my submission is selected?
We will announce the winners in a future news post in the weeks following the end of the Trades & Sails Community Contest, and will reach out to them for the rewards around that same time! Again, we're almost done selecting our previous Community Contest Of Quills & Ink winners - it took us quite a bit more time than we originally expected due to the amount of submissions!
Community Stream #08 Friday April 11th
We’re back with April’s Community Stream! As a reminder, we’re now down to one Community Stream per month until Early Access gets closer. For this stream, we're going back to dissecting Solasta & D&D 2024 Classes & Subclasses! Let's talk design and power level!
See you on Friday, 9 am PDT / 12 pm EDT / 6 pm CEST!
