How to play

Collect ship cards while watching Westerschelde LIVE, earn XP, and climb through 30 nautical ranks. Cards become claimable only when the ship is currently on the overlay.

1

Sign in

Use the Twitch login in the sidebar so the site can connect collected cards and XP to your account.

2

Watch the home page

When a ship is featured on the livestream overlay, its card appears on the home page above the recent ships list.

3

Collect & earn XP

Click the collect button while the ship is still active. You instantly earn XP based on the card's rarity — from 10 XP for Common up to 200 XP for Legendary.

4

Come back daily

Each ship card can be collected once per day. If the same ship is on the overlay during a later stream, collect it again to earn more XP and climb the ranks.

Rules

  • Only the ship currently shown on the overlay can be collected.
  • You can collect each ship once per day per account.
  • If you are not signed in, you can still see the active card but you cannot claim it.
  • Rarity is based on ship size, type, age, and how often it has been spotted.
  • XP is awarded at the moment of collection and is based on the card's rarity tier.

Tips

  • Keep the home page open during the livestream so you can react quickly.
  • Check the Cards page to learn which ships are common and which are harder to find.
  • Rare and legendary cards give the most XP — prioritise those.
  • Revisit ships you've already collected when they appear again for an easy XP boost.
  • Your current rank and total XP are shown on your collection page.
  • Collect ships from different countries to unlock more flags in your flag collection.

XP per rarity

Every successful collect awards XP instantly. Rarer cards are worth more.

Rarity XP earned
Common 10 XP
Uncommon 25 XP
Rare 75 XP

Flag collection

Every ship card carries the flag of its registered country. Collecting a card automatically unlocks that country's flag in your flag collection — no extra steps needed.

  • Open Flag collection from the sidebar to see which flags you have unlocked and which are still locked.
  • A flag is unlocked as soon as you collect your first card from that country.
  • The progress bar shows how many of all possible flags you have collected so far.
  • Ships flying the same flag all count toward that one flag unlock — collecting more ships from the same country just adds to your card count for that flag.
