Reminder: You can fulfill the tasks ONLY in chronicles events.
just like the last event, there are two crates for air and tanks, you get the stage in one crate, what is in the second crate for the same tank that day. I had to buy extra gold last time cause I wasted a bunch on the second crates.
I hope I can get the Stg and the Type 100, I can't play daily but I kinda hope those ones will drop.... Too bad there isn't a drop rate calculated by the nations you play the most. :(
The Yak3T is the one with the 57mm gun?
Can I not make my vehicle more authentic this 2 weeks? :c
aww...nothing German this time? damn :P, but i am looking forward to the PV-2D, would be a great plane towards my collection, keep up the good work gaijin
There are 4 reward vehicles for 5 nations. Not every nation can get something. So to make it super fair, the Russians get 2. I guess Germans and Japanese don't have any nice tanks or planes, and that's why they lost the war :)
Some of us don't want to (or cannot) play enough missions for everything and like to spend Eagles to complete some tasks. Gaijin, this would be a good time to announce another bonus for Golden Eagle buyers like the one last year: https://warthunder.com/en/news/3644-shop-bonus-golden-eagles-when-using-paypal-en/ Players get their extra Golden Eagles and Gaijin gets more money. Everyone wins.
jim, I agree, us players need something to shooth our ruffled feathers. I sure don't want to suffer through that 'balanced' event. but I really don't want to drop $115 either. the yak looks like it might be really nice, but compared to the me 262 and type 62 ( I spent $40 to get this deadly and fun light tank) these tanks and planes don't really seem as nice
What the hell do you guys mean by "Destroy 12/6/3 enemies in 1 battle (AB, RB, SB) while controlling a ground vehicle."? I looked at it and looked at it and I still have no clue what you mean by it. Could someone please explain what I need to do in order to complete this task? Thank you.
Destroy (for example) 3 enemy vehicles in 1 Simulator Event Battle.
Stona_WT, Ah, okay. Makes sense XD thank you for clearing that up. Much appreciated.
Destroy 12/6/3 enemies in 1 battle (AB, RB, SB) while controlling a ground vehicle. The task of achieving it with RB is not counted.
How can tanks get 1st place in the tanks event?
The kills required in 1 battle of SB airfights is still 10, not SBX5, is it a bug?
