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!

Will the rewards for the PvE mission be better this year? They were awful last time.
Will the supplie boxes for the DB-7 and Su-76M be in the item shop?
@Wilbox are you going to put the DB-7 and Su-76M supply boxes in the store. Im not able to play and don't want to miss out
Will there be any new vehicles/packs like last year?
im true comrade my friends all the games about 8-9 /0 in tank in plane place 54
indeed, 30% is too low. The victory day is cheaper than before
this is definitely cool and all, but I got a couple questions for you admins. 1. is there going to be one more chance for people to be able to buy the achievements. and if there isn't 2. will us players have another chance to win the vehicles in say next years world war 2 chronicles. because I really do want these vehicles its just I haven't had the time to work on this event because of my colleges finals week. thanks in advance
Question about the Wings of Prey 75% discount, will this be done on Steam too? Since it's currently not on sale there.
Yes, it will start tomorrow
You mind doing discounts like this for the Axis Powers. The Axis Powers almost never receive major discounts. It would be nice.
what are you talking about? every november there's a 50% discount on ALL vehicles
and besides, It's victory day, not defeat day, why should the losers get anything
the two victory decal are same?
Will Wings of Prey also be on sale in the Steam store or only in the Gaijin store?
Yes, it will. Today at 10am PST
