On the 8th of May, 1945, the Allied forces who fought World War II in the West celebrated “VE Day” or “Victory in Europe Day”. Cities in most of the Allied nations, as well as formerly occupied cities in Western Europe, raised flags and banners, rejoicing in the defeat of the Nazi war machine.
Finally, on the 8th of May, German troops throughout Europe laid down their arms: In Prague, Germans surrendered to their Soviet counterparts, after the latter had lost more than 8,000 soldiers, and the Germans many more; in Copenhagen and Oslo; at Karlshorst, near Berlin; in northern Latvia; on the Channel Island of Sark — the German surrender was completed in a final cease-fire. More surrender documents were signed in Berlin and in Eastern Germany.
Pilot and tankers!
Many players participated in and enjoyed the Chronicles events and fought their way to the end. In recognition of the Allied triumph, we have prepared some specials for everyone to celebrate the coming Victory Day!

This is pretty weird, I've joined 18 battles and the 18 battle were all lost coz of noob team and I couldnt even reach minus 75% activity... since 7th of May. Mood: Mind blowen.
I need one battle to win and also stay in match coz I think its not counting when you leaving meanwhile the battle-activity is above/minus 75%.
There seems to be some inportant rule that they have left out... Once per day or one per nation, something like that
When will Germany receive a big discount? I am really close to getting tier V in Germany so I would like to know.
Next discount will be 50% off on all nations but sadly its in Early November aka War Thunder's birthday.
Also you guys keep releasing more and more gift vehicles, yet you rarely reoffer the ones already earned. Maybe an opportunity to get, let's say the TB-3 or the La-174 would be more popular. Also when is the Fw-189 going to be offered in game?
Instead of earned I mean created.
The game is not recording my wins or battles for this event. Who do I report this to?
I had a list of premium planes to buy as well and still have the list, nothing purchased at 30% off. The 30% is really a disappointment. It doesn't seem like it but the extra 20% to pay makes a lot of difference and most premiums aren't quite worth the 50% off price but many buy them anyway. Hopefully sales like this will not happen in the future and they will go back to at least 50% off. The 50% of premium may be useful if I needed it but I do not, I would much rather have 50% off the planes.
I think they should implement a feature what lets you send a message to people when you are offline, and they will get it when they come online!
I love the PPSh-41 decoration. :)
I have played 5 battles after 7 i got the decal why after 2 more battles? and what is with the PPSh? i have 8 or 9 Wins and got nothing look up ist after >>>> 5 <<<< Battles! i hate things like this! fix it i dont have tons of hours time to Play 2 Million battles to get something
That was easy, first 5 games I played were all wins and I got both items. Never going to use them, would rather have 50% off premium vehicles. The reason it took 7 for you to get the first one is your vehicle tier. You had to finish the game in a tier 3 or higher vehicle.
I've completed the requirements for both the ppsh and the decal but neither are showing up. Not sure if I am the only one with this issue or if anyone knows the fix.
Very frustrated that when I play a battle all the way through with a decent score (or that all with a win), it doesn't count it at all towards the PPSh SMG or the decal.
