Offer: Tank Destroyers

Commanders!

This week, we’ve prepared another set of attractive items for you:
  • AFT-10 Tier 10 Premium Tank Destroyer
  • Leclerc T40 Tier 9 Premium Tank Destroyer
  • Abrams AGDS Tier 9 Premium Tank Destroyer
  • AMX 10 RCR Tier 8 Premium Tank Destroyer
  • Treasure Trove with 10.000 Gold
Between August 11 and August 18, 2022, the following items will be available:

[h2]AFT-10[/h2]
 

The AFT-10 is a tracked ATGM carrier based on a ZBD-04 IFV hull that carries eight massive Red Arrow-10 guided missiles. In their latest version, these modern ATGMs are capable of devastating even the most modern MBTs at extreme distances and the AFT-10 was designed to do just that – to stop enemy assaults dead in their tracks. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the AFT-10 is a Tier 10 Premium Tank Destroyer. Its massive ATGM launcher immediately draws comparison with another Tier 10 vehicle, the Kornet-EM. But where Kornet-EM is all about speed, stealth and missile ambushes, the AFT-10 is about one thing and one thing only – uncompromising firepower. It is capable of unleashing devastating missile salvos that can knock out even Tier 10 MBTs in seconds. Additionally, its missiles have a very high penetration value, which means that no matter the angle, no target is truly safe from its reach.

The AFT-10 Tier 10 Premium TD is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.

 

 

 
[h2]Abrams AGDS[/h2]
 

The Abrams AGDS (Armored Ground Defense System) was a vehicle concept and proposal, drafted in July 1996 by Dr. Asher H. Sharoni (a former colonel in the Israeli Defense Forces) and Lawrence D. Bacon from a Californian company called Western Design Howden. It was supposed to be an air-defense vehicle, protecting the Abrams formations against flying threats, although its weaponry can be deployed against ground targets as well. The United States were, at the time, sorely lacking a vehicle comparable to the Russian Shilka and one of the ideas was to use the Abrams chassis paired with a new turret to produce an armored AA gun that would be able to keep up with the American tank units. This plan was never realized and the vehicle stayed only on paper but you can play the Abrams AGDS in Armored Warfare and experience what it would have been like, had it ever been deployed.



In Armored Warfare, the Abrams AGDS is a very unique Tier 9 Premium Tank Destroyer. What makes it so special are its two large guided missile launchers capable of firing an incredibly devastating volley within seconds. The AGDS can devastate practically every opponent on the battlefield with a single salvo, making it one of the best and most effective mid-to-long range vehicles in the game. At close ranges, it can rely on excellent frontal turret protection and its two 35mm autocannons to keep enemies at bay until the missile launcher reloads to unleash another deadly swarm of missiles. The Abrams AGDS is one of the most feared vehicles in Armored Warfare!

 

 

 
[h2]Leclerc T40[/h2]
 

Sometimes called the French Terminator, this vehicle was designed on the Leclerc MBT chassis with one purpose in mind – to accompany tanks and fight off infantry attacks the same way as the Russian BMPT series does. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Leclerc T40 is a Tier 9 Premium Tank Destroyer. It offers you a combination of a durable hull, rapid-fire 40mm automatic cannon and, most importantly, the Javelin missile system. Simply right-click the target, wait until it becomes locket and fire the Javelin ATGM – it will home itself on the target, attacking its weak roof armor. Thanks to this ability, the Leclerc T40 is one of the most destructive vehicles in the game.

 

 

 
[h2]AMX-10 RCR[/h2]
 

The AMX 10 RCR is the updated variant of the French AMX 10 RC fire support vehicle by GIAT, originally developed in the early 1980s. This light and nimble wheeled 6x6 AFV was armed with a 105mm gun, allowing it to knock out even armored targets at considerable distances. Over 200 of these aging vehicles were upgraded by Nexter in 2010 with improved armor and electronics, enabling them to fulfill modern battlefield tasks until their eventual replacement by the Jaguar. You can learn more about its history in our dedicated article!



In Armored Warfare, the AMX 10 RCR is a Tier 8 wheeled Premium Tank Destroyer. It’s incredibly agile with its wheeled chassis allowing it to outrun pretty much any enemy on the battlefield save for the fastest AFVs. Its gun accuracy is also top notch, making this vehicle perfect for sniper-style gameplay as its thin armor can’t protect it against enemy shells at close distances. This vehicle also comes with the Hydraulic Suspension active ability.

Today, we have a special offer for you. A veritable treasure trove of 10.000 Gold awaits you at a discounted price.



Please note that this item can only be purchased once per user. You can find out more about Gold and its uses in our dedicated article.

 

 

We hope that you will enjoy the offer and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

In Development: Rise of the Dragon Path

Commanders!

Today, we’d like to tell you more about the upcoming Rise of the Dragon Battle Path campaign as a whole along with the changes and improvements we’ve prepared for you.



Let’s start with the basics as usual. Once you acquire access to the campaign (the price remains the same), you’ll be earning Battle Coins and spending them on Battle Path progress. Battle Coins will be earned either by just playing or by completing missions.

Four mission sets along with repeatable daily Battle Coin Missions and Challenges will be available like the last time (there are no changes to the Missions or Challenges themselves). And, of course, the popular Battle Coin Shop feature will be making a re-appearance.

As you already probably know from our previous articles, the Rise of the Dragon Battle Path will be Chinese-themed and will represent a trip through China’s military history, starting from the 1930s and ending with the contemporary China and perhaps the near future. The main prizes are, in ascending order:

The prize concept will be a bit different this time around. Pretty much all the valuable prizes are now present in the standard Level progression. We have carefully analyzed your feedback and cut down on the prizes you don’t consider very valuable. You won’t see that many banners, titles or decals this time around, nor will we add a lot of Credits in the table. The five-stage avatar that occupied five prize slots is now also gone.



Instead, you’ll see plenty of historical camouflages, real-life-based skins and other requested goodies. These will be obtainable roughly in chronological order, each batch representing a different era in China’s history:

Please visit these articles to see what exactly awaits you.

Now, let’s talk mechanics. Aside from the prize changes, the Rise of the Dragon Battle Path will reflect the previous campaign, Wars of the Past. The campaign is designed to last until December. The amount of levels is therefore still 60 with the same progression tweaks (costs, income) introduced in the previous Battle Path.



The chain missions now give previously introduced Chinese camouflages as a reward. If you have them – lucky you, you’ll receive a hefty Battle Coin compensation instead! The Elite mission set will, aside from blueprints, contain a special paintjob for the Type 99A2 Tier 10 MBT called Moon Dragon.



The Rise of the Dragon vehicles will not feature Overprogression modules, although the older Battle Path vehicles will still be possible to upgrade using the Workshop feature for the duration of this Battle Path.

The Battle Coin Shop will of course be also updated, this time with more Premium vehicles, including:
  • Wars of the Past Battle Path vehicles (excluding the T-15 Kinzhal as that vehicle needs to be looked at balance-wise)
  • Multiple Tier 10 Premium vehicles that haven’t appeared there yet
  • T-90A Burlak
  • TAM 2IP
  • SU-152 Taran
  • M60A3 SLEP
  • CV90120T Ghost
  • 2T Stalker
  • BVP M-80A

And a few more.

And that’s pretty much it. The Battle Path is currently planned to launch in August. If anything in this article caught your eye and you haven’t done so already, you can still purchase discounted access via MY.GAMES Market.



We hope that you’ll enjoy this Battle Path and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!
