World of Tanks News

Commanders!

The festive season may be behind us, but the fun in World of Tanks never ends! Jump back into the traditional winter excitement with the familiar Snowballs and Ice Age submodes.

Both submodes are available simultaneously in the Arcade Cabinet via the mode selector across two consecutive launches. Enjoy single-tier, 15v15 battles with Tier VIII or Tier X vehicles across six snowy maps featuring winter-themed mechanics.



[h2]Maps[/h2]
Snowballs and Ice Age require snowy locations, so Mannerheim Line, Erlenberg, and Glacier are in play. Plus, both submodes can take place on special winter versions of Karelia, Prokhorovka, and Malinovka.



[h2]Snowballs[/h2]
Inspired by real-life snowball fights, this submode is fast, fun, and unpredictable. Shells become snowballs with curved trajectories, reload times are shorter, and engine power is boosted for all vehicles. Plus, HE shells deal extra splash damage, adding to the chaos!



[h2]Ice Age[/h2]
In Ice Age, the extra-slippery ground turns battles into epic slo-mo shootouts. Enjoy smooth drifting as rounds fly faster and dispersion during movement and traverse is reduced. Add boosted engine power and top speeds, and you're in for a wild ride!



[h2]Rules[/h2]
Except for different modifiers, Snowballs and Ice Age have the same set of basic rules:
[expand]

• Battles are single-tier, fought in either Tier VIII or Tier X vehicles. Any vehicles of these tiers can be used in the mode.
  
• You earn XP and credits in battles, and you can use all types of Personal and clan Reserves.
  
• XP multipliers for the first victory of the day work in the submodes.
  
• Snowballs and Ice Age battles do not contribute to daily missions or personal missions, but they count toward the mode Progression.
  
• Snowballs and Ice Age battles do not bring you Battle Pass Points. Gold and credits are not put into the Gold Reserve and the Credit Reserve.
  
• Snowballs and Ice Age battles do not yield bonds, except for the event Progression rewards (see below).
  
• You may play in Platoons (and are eligible for the bonuses if you do).
