Correct me if I am wrong, isn't russia the Motherland and germany the Fatherland? :b
And USA is kinderland.
All answers (1)T80UM2, burgerland
good im not the only one annoyed by this
All answers (1)zomborg, But actually this name is correct. This is the event in honor of 23 february, Day of the Soviet Army. In modern Russia it's called "День защитника отечества". And as "отечество" means "fatherland" and "родина" means "motherland" this entry is all good.
Didnt know the Russians fought for the Germans 😂
Actually, some Russians *did* fight for the Germans.
FrizFreleng, Friz, I think you've missed the joke but most will probably be aware of what you're talking about.
U think fatherland is just Germany? Poor you.
Janeqq310, r/wooosh
Sad when you own them all... I would love to see removed vehicles like italian bombers in german tech tree or yer2 and stuff
Quite contrary, you should feel pride and accomplishment if you own them all.
Thulle_, Are these vehicles staying available after this event? LaGG is in a trophy aswell, available for bonds and medals. Can we expect for changing the content of this trophy any tie soon? I only got this LaGG left, now that it's mine, fighting for this tropy lost it's meaning. Also there's only a few occasion when I don't own some from the monthly changing selection of the shop.
same here, i bought the lagg for 18 bucks on the market... this very week
All answers (5)pecusgaming, 30% off is not a good deal anyway when there's plenty of times during the year ALL vehicles get a 50% discount.
Defender of the Fatherland? Then why aren't they German vehicles?
Because in Russian it's Fatherland, not Motherland as in the English literature.
All answers (3)LunarRainbow, Wrong, both are used in Russian and English.
Wolf_89, I don't think the phrase "Defender of the Fatherland" in context to defending Nazi Germany would be very... "popular" these days.
TigerSympathiser, You mean Politically Correct? fuck that. Id rather my contextual accuracy thank you. Besides, the vast majority of the then Wehrmacht would argue the difference between defending Nazi Germany, and just defending Germany. Of which there is a stark difference.
so will the tanks and planes be removed after the 25th?
Yes, they only are available this weekend
I have already all of these vehicles. oof
"Unique decals" The "Defender" decal already exists ingame as "Grenade" it's literally the exact same decal.
