The Bladeworks Network (BWN) is an online gaming network designed to govern and manage dueling servers. Their goal is to enhance the JKA gaming experience by providing gameplay improvements, accurate player ranking, profiling, and a central location for competition and collaboration between JKA players in Duel Mode. To do this, the Bladeworks servers run blademod to send duel results to a central server for recording. From those results statistics are made for each registered fighter and server. BWN is ran by Darkstar, Moria, and SiNiStaR.

The BWN's competitive nature attracts some of the best fighters around. It's very unregulated and one can expect to find a lot of hostility and abuse on the servers. One can expect to find a lot of tough fights and few friends there. The rating system on the BWN becomes the focus of many fighters in JKA
