Offer: Week of Russia

Commanders!

Today we’ve prepared the following items for you:
  • Nakidka skin for T-90MS
  • Object 640 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank
  • BMPT Mod.2000 Tier 8 Premium Tank Destroyer
  • Battle Coins
Between July 15 and 22, 2021, the following items will be available:


[h2]Nakidka Skin[/h2]


Nakidka is a special system, developed in the early 2000s in Russia by the “NII Stali” military research institute in Moscow. In its core, it’s a camouflage made of an undisclosed radio-absorbing and IR-dampening material, intended to make large vehicles such as tanks easy to conceal on the battlefield, even from radars and thermal imagers. The model we have decided to implement in Armored Warfare comes from 2012, when an upgraded Nakidka system was demonstrated on a T-90MS MBT intended for export. You can read more in our dedicated article.



The skin is available as a part of the Nakidka Bundle, which contains the following items:
  • Nakidka skin for T-90MS
  • 5 Platinum Loot Crates
  • 1.000 Gold






[h2]Object 640[/h2]


The Object 640 is one of the last Soviet era “super tank” monsters, designed to surpass anything the west could field on the battlefield. It featured extremely advanced armor, making it highly resistant to hits while keeping its weight low. The design was truly revolutionary for the late 1980s, but, like with many other Soviet projects of the era, it was discontinued due to the lack of funding. You can learn more about it in a dedicated article.

In Armored Warfare, the Object 640 “Black Eagle” is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. It is a fast, agile and well-protected vehicle that plays in a typical Russian-style MBT fashion – ideal for players who want to take things up close and personal. This version of the tank does not feature any camouflage and is ready to be customized as you see fit.

The Object 640 Tier 10 Premium MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.






[h2]BMPT Mod.2000[/h2]


The BMPT Mod.2000 is, as its name suggests, one of the earliest models of the famous Russian BMPT series, also known under the name “Terminator.” The word BMPT stands for “tank support combat vehicle,” which is exactly what the machine was designed for – to accompany tanks to battle and support them (predominantly in urban environments) against enemy infantry. It consists of a MBT-class hull (a modified T-90 one) and an unmanned turret, armed with a single 30mm automatic cannon and a single four-tube launcher for Kornet-E ATGMs. This particular model was shown to general public in 2000, but didn’t get much attention. It was overhauled almost immediately to the iconic twin-autocannon configuration that’s being used to this day.

In Armored Warfare, the BMPT Mod.2000 is a Tier 8 Premium Tank Destroyer. It’s a heavy duty vehicle with its hull offering excellent protection for its class. The turret, albeit lightly armored, only takes reduced damage. Even though this vehicle only features a single 30mm autocannon (unlike all the other BMPT series vehicles in the game), this is compensated by the presence of powerful ATGMs that make the BMPT Mod.2000 an extremely potent tank killer.

This vehicle is now available on MY.GAMES Market directly in three different variants:
  • BMPT Mod.2000 without any camouflage
  • BMPT Mod.2000 Reaper with a scary black grim-reaper-themed camouflage
  • BMPT Mod.2000 Sapphire with its hull covered in blue flames

Please note that the latter two camouflages are permanent and cannot be removed from the vehicle if you purchase them.

CV90105 TML Damage Contest

Commanders!

The Northern Wind campaign is now available and we have prepared another way of obtaining a large number of bonus Battle Coins as well as other epic prizes for you!



In this contest, we’ll be asking you to deal as much damage as possible while driving the CV90105 TML Light Tank. However, please note that only damage from up to 150m counts.

You can compete in three categories, separated by mode:
  • PvP (Random Battles)
  • GLOPS (Global Operations)
  • PvE (excluding Heroic Special Operations, War Games)

Post the screenshot of your result (both the detailed and regular tab) in the dedicated contest channel along with your name, category and result number. We also reserve the right to ask for a replay, so make sure you record your battle. The submission template is as such:
  • Category / Result / Ingame nickname

Attention – as we will be using a program to collect your results, please make absolutely sure you submit them with the template above. Submissions without this template will be ignored.

As an example, “PvP / 50000 / Johndoe” is correct, while “PvP/50 000/Johndoe” is not due to the incorrectly placed spaces.

The contest ends on July 18, 2021 (23:59 CEST) and all entries must be submitted by then.

The prizes are as follows:

The winners of each category will receive:
  • 10.000 Battle Coins for the Northern Wind Battle Path
  • 2.500 Gold
  • Scandinavian Winter camouflage
  • Scandinavian base paint

We’ll also be offering another very special prize. We are planning several of these contests in advance. The player who wins most of them (realistically, likely the player who wins more than one) will also receive the CV90120 Ghost Premium Light Tank (or 20.000 Battle Coins if he or she has it already).

Please note:
  • One player can only submit one result, period
  • All submitted results must be from the battles that take place during the event
  • Platoons are not allowed
  • The winners will be announced and the prizes will be distributed after the end of the event
Good luck and see you on the battlefield!

Battle-Hardened Discounted Bundles

Commanders!

For today’s offer, we’ve prepared two Battle-Hardened bundles for French progression MBTs. These discounted bundles contain Gold as well as the Battle-Hardened status, which will turn your Progression vehicle into a semi-Premium one by increasing its Credit income, Experience income, and by improving its matchmaking quality so that you meet lower Tier opponents in battle than usual, much like Premium vehicles do.



The discounted Battle-Hardened bundles are available for the following vehicles:
  • Leclerc T4 Tier 10 MBT (50% discount)
  • Leclerc Tier 9 MBT (45% discount)

Please note that if you do not own the vehicle in question, you will receive the Battle Hardened status price in Gold instead.



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

See you on the battlefield!

Celebrating Bastille Day

Commanders!

July 14 is celebrated in France as the National Celebration (La fête nationale), but it is more commonly known in the English-speaking countries as the Bastille Day. The name signifies one of the most important episodes of the French Revolution, the storming of the Bastille prison-fortress on the 14th of July 1789. The fortress was considered a symbol of royal power and its fall was a significant blow to the authority of the king.



For the celebrations, we’ve prepared the following bonus for you:
  • 400% XP bonus for the first victory of the day in Global Operations

Additionally, a Bastille Day gift is also available at MY.GAMES Market until July 16. It contains:
  • French FORAD camouflage (read more)
  • Player title “Master of the Citadel”
  • 3 days of Premium Time

We hope you will enjoy this gift and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!
