Good to see the rare vehicles make their return for this historic date.
/So glad/ they didnt add ANOTHER premium vehicle to the game. All ready WAY too many vehicles behind a paywall, some of which are hundreds of dollars for a FW 189 at 1.7 BR!!! Sure wish Gaijin would do an event with PREVIOUS premiums given as prizes.
The FW-189 is on the market. Gaijin doesn't control market prices. This is a tournament event and so there is literally no reason to have premium vehicles to be unlocked. If you don't want event vehicles to be behind a paywall then just get them in the event, task events are far from impossible and crafting events, although harder, can get you a lot of silver if you sell your stuff on the market.
Speaking as a console player, be happy you can even get those vehicles at all; we can't get anything that's exclusive to the market. :(
Damn, the 23 decal looks so nice and is so easy to get. Thanks Gaijin, can't wait to put it on my Cold War Soviet tanks. :)
Awesome! Thank you, Gaijin! o7
