Commanders!

Characters from the renowned "Peaky Blinders" TV series descend upon World of Tanks as voiced crew members in an epic Battle Pass Special. Take part in this undertaking to recruit them and procure the brand-new Char Murat, a fast French autoloader medium with a Birmingham soul, in the assertive "Tommy" 3D style!
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
[h2]Meet the Shelby Family[/h2]
The Shelby family enters the world of large caliber guns, bringing their guile, cunning, and grit. Tommy, Arthur, and John know a thing or two about humble beginnings and are no strangers to fighting in the mud. Employ these rough, streetwise characters as voiced crew members—you won’t regret it!



[h2]Procure the Char Murat in the "Tommy" 3D Style[/h2]
“You don’t get what you deserve. You get what you take.” This fast medium tank with an autoloader is for those who live by the words of Tommy Shelby. It can offer you overwhelming firepower, unleashed in just a few seconds. Be as calculating and decisive as Tommy: Shape the moment when the risks you take will pay the biggest dividends!


Much like the lives of many characters from Peaky Blinders, the “Tommy” 3D style for the Char Murat is also defined by the Great War. And though the war has ended, its memory lingers in every man's mind, and every soldier carries it home in his heart.

The details of the style speak volumes about the things the Shelby boys hold dear. It is a symbol of their resilience and refusal to be broken. So, while the steel might be from France, the heart of this style was forged in the streets of Small Heath, Birmingham.

Commanders,

The Paint It GREEN! festival is in full swing, with Emerald Chests available now!

Let’s peek inside these shamrock-adorned containers with guaranteed goodies and (with a bit of Irish luck!) unique festive 3D attachments, Free XP, and eight Tier VIII and IX Premium vehicles including the brand-new Prototipo 6, Object 168 German, and Lätt Stridsfordon 120.

[h2]Get Emerald Chests With Premium Vehicles and More![/h2]



Emerald Chests come in bundles with 5, 25, 75, or 150 chests and the same number of missions for ×5 XP inside. Each Emerald Chest contains an item from the list below with a certain probability:

• One of eight Premium Tier VIII or IX vehicles (probability: 2%):
  
  • Prototipo 6 (NEW)
  • Object 168 German (NEW)
  • Lätt Stridsfordon 120 (NEW)
  • Char Mle. 75
    
  • K-2
    
  • Turtle Mk. I
    
  • T 54D
    
  • Object 752
• 3D attachments from the Paint It GREEN! collection (probability: 10%)
• Free XP (probability: 15%)
• One of the following: Personal Reserves or Crew Books or credits (probability: 100%)
• One of the following: Days of WoT Premium Account or Personal Reserves (probability: 100%)

[h2]Meet the Prototipo 6, the Object 168 German, and the Lätt Stridsfordon[/h2]



The Prototipo 6 is a Tier VIII Italian Premium medium tank with a 105-mm gun that deals 300 HP of damage per shot and is equipped with a three-shell autoreloader. The full reload time is 35 seconds, and time between shots is 2.5 seconds. The tank has a top speed of 50 km/h but offers very good acceleration and overall dynamics.
While the Prototipo’s armor is not impressive, it excels as a support vehicle. Stay close to your heavies, provide covering fire, and try to maximize your magazine. Switch flanks when necessary, avoid direct close-quarters duels, and utilize the tank’s decent mobility to stay out of danger!



The Object 168 German is a Tier VIII Soviet Premium medium tank with a limited maximum gun depression (–5°) and some frontal turret armor (150 mm), but the rest of its parameters make it Leopard-like: 2.1 s aiming time, 0.34 accuracy, fast special APCR rounds, 60 km/h forward top speed, and decent concealment values. For a Tier VIII medium, 340 HP of damage with a single shot is good, but 9.7 s reload time may prevent you from beating enemies one-on-one. So snipe and avoid enemy fire!



The Lätt Stridsfordon 120 is a Tier IX Swedish Premium tank destroyer which has a lot in common with other TDs of this nation: an excellent gun, a Siege mode for shooting, good mobility in the Travel mode, and a wedge-like low-profile hull giving the vehicle excellent camouflage values. The distinctive feature of the Lätt is its (120 mm) gun with a hefty single-shot damage of 420 HP. This sniper will appeal both to Swedish TD enthusiasts and high DPM vehicle enjoyers.
