Yeah, that's a pretty good deal for the money.

Is the 5.2k Gold part of the 30 days of login rewards? Or does that include the value of the Object 279 for those of us who already have it?  A Tier 5 is worth... $7.50?  Or 1500 Gold?

$8.25 to get all of the above plus another 1500 Gold for an Object 279 is really pretty good.  I use gold to skip BP grind dailies all the time.

The 5.2k and Object 279 are separate, yes.  1500 gold up front, and then the rest is spread across the next 29 days.

An "official response", sort of.

I don't think this is actually how tokens work, but what do I know?

So, if you have the shop link, you actually can buy this, even on an existing account.
Decent value for the $, you get 5.2k gold, an Object 279, and 60 days of prem, along with a couple boosters and a tiny amount of credits.
Unfortunately, it does cost real money.

Still an issue as of 0.34.7574, Jan 1 2021

IIRC the Leo 2 Evo never had an unlock token.  Side progression vehicles in general never had them, at least as far as I can remember.

The Evo never did, but the Stryker and Dragun both had one.  Now, you have to pick a T9 to never be able to unlock, if you didn't have them already.

Very lazy edit, accurate to the game as of now

ahaha )) it was a fantasy of my friendfrom Belarus

He made some very nice things.  Too bad the mods on official thought they would confuse people, or I'd have done more.

I could understand being exciting of getting Magnus as commander (and go with him to BSI missions). Avatar - no really.

Ohh and I could gladly get "Silentstalker-commander" too, so he could comment all in-game shenanigans with his own voice.

They couldn't get the same voice actor for Magnus, so it would be yet another completely different voice actor.  And I seem to remember them saying that there was "No Chance" of a Magnus commander.

I have a feeling I won't be playing for much longer after this drops.  Unless they rolled back hard on a lot of the changes, it's just not going to work for me.

So have a shitpost.

This was deleted off of the official discord.  I thought it was pretty good.

Heh. Our GM (currently on vacation) freaked out a bit when I reposted that first image in our company chat.

I think that counts as a win. 
Not bad for 5 minutes in Paint and a little bit of using Inspect Element.

Some interesting items from crates today.

Game Version: 0.32.7245

Brief Description: Type 99 Tandem HEAT shell does not function properly against ERA

Steps to Reproduce: Take Type 99 into battle/training ground, shoot at ERA-protected armor.

Result: Shell does not penetrate ERA, even when the lower-penetration ATGM (775 for HEAT, 700 for missile, both allegedly HEAT-T) penetrates

Expected Behavior: Shell penetrates ERA, mostly ignoring it

Fixes/Workarounds: Don't shoot at ERA?

Other Notes: The same shell works correctly on the Type 96B

Lets not split the parts, because what that will inevitably lead to is someone getting parts over the required 100, and therefore wasting them.

Have a thread for posting stupid AW things that don't belong anywhere else.
I'll start it off

My thoughts on this announcement in a nutshell

Who asked for ANY of this?  More changes that nobody either wanted or needed.

Sure, the camo/skin change is nice, but the rest?  Terrible idea.

If someone comes across a clan whos name I'll withhold, and happens to see a player by the name of Samu, please shoot him.  Repeatedly.

We were in a match on Phalanx and he was in arty.  He continued to drop smoke on the enemy.  0 damage output from him by the way.  This resulted in most of us taking damage from a tank we could not see to get it off the field.

We were at a point where he screwed it up so bad that we couldn't get to the last secondary.

He's the same guy that did that to me.

Probably should send replay to support about that.

Found a "new" way of trolling.  Arty who did nothing but launch smoke at the enemy vehicles so we couldn't see them.

At least he didn't get any XP for it.

I would like to join, already applied ingame.
