The time from which the coupon can be traded can be viewed in the game in the coupon description. The option of trading each coupon separately depends on the time of its receipt and doesn’t depend on the vehicle coupon.

Nice to see that its still utter torture for tankers... People will complain and gaji will ignore, same thing every event.
What is so hard for you in tankers tasks? You expected tasks like: drive 5km reverse? o.O
Stona_WT, Well let see. 50 kills and not even multiplier for rb. 2 more wins that by itself is +20min-1h. 15 cap when average person get 0-2 cap/game( this is how u get pizza/puma spam to ruin everyones game) and 25 assist(0-5 if lucky in tanks) vs 10 for airplanes that u can actually get in 1 match. There some.
All of these vehicles would be awesome to have but it's absolutely impossible for anyone with a life to grind more than one of them, heck even one is pretty much impossible if you have a life... "give us your money or suffer"
"absolutely impossible for anyone with a life" - I think you are overreacting with your brave statement.
it is easy to get at least three of them because of the two days for one star
WINTER is coming! Please be aware, event start at 18th December. So do not search for it now ;)
PS. No, sadly Snowman from artwork is not a super secret hidden death machine available as a prize, sorry :(
can i have a cookie?
Nice prizes!
I agree, these are all really nice prizes this season.
R.O 75 and EBR 75 are looking hot, not to mention that MiG
Here we go again... vehicles that I must have. Good thing covid prevents us from celebrating holidays anyway
why exactly is a mass production(around 1200 made around the same/more than the M46 patton for reference)put as an event vehicle?why is that?why not put a prototype rather than EBR?like an ELC for example or the M51 sherman prototype?I mean i just dont understand, first the MB.152 then the EBR... That is just disappointing you decide to put interesting production vehicles as event but thing like the Radkampfwagen that didn't even have a working turret or a driver viewport in the techtree?
I thought so as well
Because of the street cred of this abomination in World of Tanks.
what is that Class (3P) ? ive never seen it before
It's the Thyssen Henschel TH800. Gaijin really did some deep digging for german prototypes here.
Skilllos, Actually its a South African prototype related to the rooikat, they had some help from the Germans but i still dont see why its not in the British tech tree
Why is there still a 2 day limit for each star? Why couldn't you just make the event go from the 18th december to 11 january, but you can get any star any time you want? Not everyone is able to play through the whole event to get all the rewards. If I were to go on a Holiday for like 7 days, I woudn't be able to get the Mig-21 without spending real money, just because I am spending time with my family during Holidays.
But why did you choose Baltimore? Why didn't you choose Wichita? It doesn't make any sense...
Because despite it being the most produced US CA, it would be a match for the hipper/spee/eugen. And everyone knows we cant make naziboos fight on a level playing field in WT. The screaming would be deafening.
CheckYoPrivilege, US ships can easily slap the hell out of all 3 of those ships. Orleans is basically superior to them and you guys are getting a god damn Alaska. Please don't you go "it would be a match for XXXX and wehraboos would cry". Play the game a bit.
Thanks for adding some french and italian stuf
yeah know i actouly want to grind it but i will fail i wish it was some german thing that i dont care about :(
let me correct you there. "thanks for adding some french stuff" the italian plane is just going to be another trash ground attacker that is probably worse in every way to the american planes.
