Welcome to World of Tanks Nexus! If you are new to the Nexus community then we're a 10 year old modding community focusing on specific games, including the Elder Scrolls series, Fallout series, Dragon Age series, Witcher Series, Mount & Blade series, Neverwinter Nights series and now, World of Tanks! We've got more than 3.5 million members, over 22,000 of whom are mod authors who have chosen to share their work with others on the Nexus sites, so we're no strangers to modding our games.

I've been playing World of Tanks for almost a year now under the name iPokeTanksWithSpoons on the EU servers, with around 3,500 battles to my name across the beta and the full game. I got all the way up to a Maus in the beta and I'm now steadily working my way up to a T-54 and a IS-7 in the full game, so I'm no stranger to the World of Tanks!

I've recently begun to play World of Tanks with friends, forming a platoon and rushing out there to destroy tanks, and I noticed that most of them were using mods and skins in their game. Despite being a prolific modder and owning a large modding community I'd never put two-and-two together and thought that World of Tanks would have any mods. How wrong was I!

After spending some time on the official forums I noticed there's a whole wealth of mods and skins for the game, everything from new cursors and icons to tank skins and HD mini-maps. I love to see how creative the community can be. Unfortunately I also noticed that a lot of the files are all over the place, with most being hosted on free hosts like RapidShare or MediaFire. As such, it's really hard to find what mods and skins are out there for World of Tanks as there's no centralised repository for the files (at least, there aren't any in English, and I don't speak Russian!). The World of Tanks community is extremely multi-cultural, and it's played extensively in Europe by all sorts of nationalities, perhaps more than most other games, so the community can tend to be slightly disjointed.

Our focus at the Nexus is to make uploading and managing mods by mod authors as easy as finding and downloading mods for mod users. Everything is stream-lined and efficient, and it's much easier than getting your own webspace and mucking about with FTP clients and HTML. If you're a mod author then all you need is a Nexus account to get started adding your files. You control every aspect of your file sharing, and it's all instant so you don't have to wait for us to put it up on the sites. If you're here to download mods then the best place to start is in the file database.

I'll continue to refine the file categories and tags available as the site is used by others, but if you have any recommendations please let me know. If you're in need of help with using the site you can either use our forums or the contact form to ask for assistance, or you might find what you're looking for in our Wiki.

I really look forward to seeing what the modding community can come up with for World of Tanks, and I'm glad I can offer this service to this great game.
