I'm gonna win Uranus
Question, in order to get the shield you you have to win in the event or just in random matchmaking? Because all my tanks that can be used in the event are rank 2 :(
So how can I get the decoration? (if I understand it right) I dont have to play in the event to get it? just normal games in tank RB for example. Thanks
Why are we doing Operation Uranus when that happened 19-23rd of November? Surely there is a big battle that happened in Feb on the Eastern Front. Demyansk Pocket? Siege of Breslau?
Does the shield decal have any historical background or it's just made/created for the event please ?
Oh great the "play Russian tanks or lose" event is back. Whoop-dee-friggin-doo. I'll be sure to avoid it like the plague - tilted events are NO FUN.
Where can I find such decals after I unlock them? Please make it easy and simple to find/search for decals, I sometimes waste 5 minutes or more searching for a specific decal that I had just unlocked.
where is the shield ? i can't found it
An Idea how about a chance to win a 16th panzer division insignia since we seem to play battle of Stalingrad so much or would that be to realistic?
I'm having a problem with getting the shield decoration. I have well over 15, probably closer to 60 ground wins with >70% activity yet it's only giving me credit for 3. It also gave me credit for air wins even though I hadn't played a single air match
