New location for naval battles - Andaman Sea
Attention! Outdated news format. Content may not display correctly.


Dear players, we are happy to introduce to you a new location for naval battles - “Andaman Sea bay”. The location was inspired by the area surrounding the Phang Nga Bay in Thailand; a picturesque tropical paradise: blue sky, azure sea, lots of cliffs and smaller islands. 



The first players to experience naval battles on this beautiful location will be the members of the pre-beta Naval test!



This weekend, participants of the closed pre-beta will be able to control the Typ-Klasse 140 Jaguar, the Pr. 183 “Bolshevik” and British Dark Class MTB, the Dark Class MGB with air support from the IL-2-37, the Hs.129B-2, and the Hurricane Mk.IV on the new location “Andaman Sea bay”.

The mystic waters of the “Andaman Sea bay” await you! See you in battle!

It is important that you remember that naval battles are in the early testing stage. The new gameplay has created some radical changes and of course has introduced some additional design features which we are sure you will appreciate. The delay in the testing has been precisely for these reasons. You may submit your bug reports in the reporting section on forum.

How beta test will be?

Testing of naval battles will be done in several stages.

In the first stage (pre-beta testing) special missions will be available at a specific time, several days per week. Vehicles that require test will be pre-allocated in the missions. The test will be primarily focused on vessel physics and controls - your feedback is extremely important at this stage, join the pre-beta testing and share your ideas in the special section of the forum.

In the following testing stages (beta testing) the participants will be able to research the trees of several nations and for testing will join some selected players that submitted a request for testing.

Attention! You can participate in the testing from no more than two PC’s.


In the special forum section, you can find out about the testing schedule and news.
You can also discuss future naval vessels with the developers. We hope to see you there!
