In the new War Thunder major update 1.71 you will see updated Battle Tasks. We have increased Warbonds rewards and added new features that will make Battle tasks more interesting whilst the mechanics remain the same.
Updated Battle Tasks
Updated Battle Tasks with an overhaul of the current version of Battle Tasks. We have increased the rewards and added new features that are designed to make Battle Tasks more interesting and attractive to players while preserving the existing mechanics.
Fireproof War Bonds
In the updated version of Battle Tasks, players don’t have to worry about the disappearance of their War Bonds at the end of the month – they no longer have a time limit. Now you can start earning bonds in the current month and spend them during the following month.
War Bonds Shop Progress
One of the main changes to the updated Battle Tasks is progress in the personal shop interface. Now, successfully completing Battle Tasks allows the player to not only earn War Bonds, but to also upgrade the shop itself by increasing its level. New goods and a special gift will be unlocked every time the player increases the shop level.
Special Tasks
Difficult Battle Tasks have been replaced with a new type – Special Tasks. By successfully completing these, the player will earn medals that unlock access to premium goods and a valuable reward. Special Tasks do not have a time limit and more than one can be completed per day.
Special Tasks can be found in a separate tab in the Battle Tasks window and you can unlock them by spending a few bonds in the shop.
New Battle Tasks
In honour of the update, we have added several new Battle Tasks for all modes and difficulties:
- Activist – achieve victory in a mission by earning the required activity percentage (all modes).
- Grand-Scale Game – destroy bases belonging to the enemy team to win (aviation AB and RB).
- Bird Hunt – destroy enemy aircraft in tank battles (tank AB and RB).
New Goods
In addition to Special Tasks, another new item will also appear in the shop – the universal backup vehicle. The player can activate this item to backup any one vehicle of their choice.

Thank you Gaijin! This is exactly what I dreamed of. No more frustrations and disappearing War Bonds! Now I really look forward to completing some tasks to earn some cool rewards! За ваше здоровье!
Everyone complaining when Im just sitting here and wondering what can be on the 2nd page... :))
Thanks Gaijin! I've previously wanted to be excited about warbonds, but so far all it's meant to me is a fun test drive once a month or an RP booster. The previous system didn't mean much to us mediocre players.
They didn't say much about these special tasks. If they are too hard for mediocre players, then they won't be able to finish enough in order to get access to the vehicles. That would be unfortunate.
skaniol, Yeah good point
So to be absolutely clear. I can get war bonds, and just keep them virtually forever, correct?
Correct but a maximum of 3600 war bonds
OMG YES TY! The whole time reading this I was "ooh"ing and "ahhh"ing haha. I thank you so much for improving this system gaijin! <3 Im SO Proud of all you guys and all you've accomplished this year!!
A really great addition for once! This may bring back some ppl as one does not lose all the work invested one month even if one didn't hit the requirements for certain vehicles. It surely encourages ppl to continue play for next month aswell and top up the bond earings till the marks are hit.
I never saw this coming. :o I though warbonds were meant to be so grindy and restricted since they result into premium vehicles. This change is awesome! Now I will have a realistic chance to play towards a premium vehicle with warbonds :).
Very nice guys, I can only hope that one more thing gets added to the War Bond Shop in the future: buying a modification for any vehicle you choose for a certain number of war bonds (400 seems fair, several days worth of doing war bonds for one modification on a Tier 5 (or now 6) vehicle that is so abysmally bad when stock its not worth using. Basically a different way to spade things that still requires lots of player effort.
Thank you almighty snail, whale tuba approves
So how soon is the new patch coming ?
