Thanks everyone for the thoughtful feedback to this interesting proposal.

I can't help but agree, this proposal would contribute to the creation of an upper class of players who would be simply playing with stronger vehicles.  It could only make it more difficult to attract new players who will find the game fun, fair and competitive enough to stick with it.

I particularly agree with Azdule's comment:

If you took the idea and expanded it, then I would be interested - remove the following and it COULD be a start:

- Time limit
- Game mode specifics
- Tank limitations (if tanks dies can no longer be used one)
 

You may recall the problems that occurred issuing the reward tanks on the last mission.  Just hoping this thought makes it to the developers.  Please remember that some of us have the ICE skin but not the Leopard 2AV ICE Tier 6 Premium.  The skin we have can only be applied to the progression tank.  Just hoping in advance that there isn't a problem with the issuance of the reward Leopard 2AV ICE Tier 6 Premium to players who might have the ICE skin but not the premium version of the Leopard 2AV.

Thanks

Thanks Zafir!  That is good news.

Thank you Haswell and Silentstalker for the feedback.  At this point I have completed every stage from the first day, but am still behind one day.  As I have completed as much as is possible, it seems that it will be impossible for anyone to obtain the type 74 as advertised with the event.

Now I am reading the tank will be available in the BP coin shop.  This is beginning to look like a ploy to maneuver us into entering the next battle path.  Am I making any sense?

I am not disparaging this, normally generous, game that I love.  But if this turns out to be the case, I will be certain not to enter the next battle path.  I simply feel that if the tank was never going to be available via the event, the event should have been advertised as such.

The Samurai's Honor Event started today, August 12.  The event has 15 days to run and 17 stages to complete.  This means it is impossible to complete the event and obtain the type 74 tank.

This must be an error.  In prior events AW has always given us a few more days than needed to complete the event.  Why would they bother with an event that is impossible to complete?

On second thought;  as it turns out, the event runs until August 28.  This should give us enough time to complete the stages.  The only error appears to be in the game where the counter, on the event screen, indicates only 15 days remaining on a 17 stage event.

Does anyone know when the Special Apocalyptic Contract #2 will expire?

Thanks TeyKey1.  I should have checked discord.  As you say, no loss.

I have had no chat in the HQ chat box since the invasion started.  Is it something I am doing, or Russian censorship?

Thanks Haswell,

As always, your knowledge and background in this game is appreciated.

I will take your advice.

Does anyone have experience with or comments regarding this tank?  It seems to have fairly decent armor.

Thank you MK_Regular for this excellent and thoughtful information.

Does anyone have any experience with the Sabre?  Any comments on how the vehicle plays?

The problem would really be solved by removing the rotation period and allowing players to que a tank for which ever map they want (which in turn could be made faster by even allowing 2 or more maps to be qued for at the same time) and when 5 players within a 1-2 tier range que for the same map, they go in (or even better, allow them to see what everyone's bringing and decide if they want to go or not).

Great idea TekNicTerror.  I love it!

I am just seem to be playing the game less with this new 6 min. map rotation.  Maybe it's just me, but it doesn't seem to be as much fun.  Why else do we play but for fun?

Wouldn't the problem also be solved by adding more PVE maps?  However, I see knutliott already made this comment far more eloquently.

Thank you, all of you, for the benefit of your knowledge and experience.

I really appreciate it.

Does anyone have any experience with the RDF/LT?  It looks interesting and was once well thought of, but that was a long time ago.

Thanks, everyone, for your informative feedback!  I will pass on this one.

Does anyone have any experience with the PTZ-89?  I have been looking at it and it appears to have undergone some changes, some recently.  Current information seems to be difficult to locate.

Anyone else having problems simply logging in and playing this game?  I am yet to even see the update.

Thank you all for the instructive comments.  I will endeavor to put them to good use.

I must be missing something.  I know the AP rounds lose penetration at range and the HESH and PISH rounds don't.  However, I seldom have a problem with penetration using the AP rounds and, after the recent nerf, the HESH and PISH rounds offer significantly less damage than AP.  

Is there any reason to even carry HESH or PISH rounds?  Have they been rendered superfluous?
 

I see AW is selling loot crates to gamble on obtaining an Armata 152.  I would love the opportunity to purchase an Armata 152.  However, I'm not a gambler, especially after the negative outcome of the, otherwise generous, fifth anniversary event.

Loot crates are great for people who want to gamble on getting a better price.  Why not just give the rest of us a price?  I prefer straightforward prices, outside of bundles.

Thank you everyone for the great comments and ideas!

Thanks for the thoughtful feedback MK_Regular.

My point is AW did a poor job of this.  For me, it's not a question of what people should rationally have expected.  It's what they did expect.  This all could have been avoided.

Again, I feel this did more harm than good to a fine and generous game.
