# Captain's Modlist v26 → v27 — Change Summary

**A small additive release.** One new mod; no loader change, no removals, no
config changes. No action needed beyond the normal pack update.

> Note: an earlier v27 draft (27 new mods + a NeoForge 21.1.235 bump) did **not**
> ship — that work moved to a separate experimental instance and will land in a
> future release once stable. v27 is built directly on the v26 baseline.

## ➕ Added

- **Ars Additions** 21.3.0 — Ars Nouveau addon: extra glyphs, items, and
  quality-of-life for the magic system. Uses the pack's existing Ars Nouveau
  (5.11.6) and Curios (9.5.1); no new dependencies.

## Loader

- NeoForge stays at **21.1.230** — no update required for players or the server.

## Server-admin takeaway

- `ars_additions` is `side = both`, so the dedicated server picks it up on the
  next `server-update.sh` cycle; the usual validate-then-promote gate applies.
- Overrides (`config/`, `defaultconfigs/`, `kubejs/`) are unchanged from v26.
