Now Available: Special Operation “Tiger Shark”

[p]Commanders![/p][p]The third chapter of the Black Company Special Operation series, “Tiger Shark”, is now available.[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]This mission continues the story of Joshua Seagrove and Kathryn Grey and their rise to fame as Black Company mercenaries.

Server Maintenance

[p]On the 23rd of September 2025, starting from 5:00 CEST, the server will not be available for 5 hours due to a planned server maintenance.[/p][p][/p][p]Please note that the maintenance can be extended beyond the abovementioned timeframe. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Scavenger Run is here!

[p]Commanders![/p][p][/p][p]Starting on September 19, you’ll be able to earn a major bonus to your next Gold purchase (even a truly massive one, like 80 percent) by participating in the Scavenger Run event.

In other words, in case you win such a bonus and buy 1.000 Gold, you’ll receive 1.800 Gold instead. And that can make one hell of a difference (please note, however, that the maximum amount of bonus Gold obtainable this way is 10.000 Gold).

Scavenger Run is, in its core, a very simple event. There are many ruined and abandoned objects across the world of Armored Warfare and your friendly neighborhood arms dealer ran across one of them.

You are now being hired to scout it out. On a small map, you choose one of three bases and then scout its three warehouses by clicking on them. Depending on your finds (determined randomly), you will receive a sizeable bonus to your next Gold purchase.

This event will be active for several days (the counter in Garage will always tell you how much time is left), so if you’re planning to stock on Gold for the next Battle Path or simply want to boost your progress right now, it’s the perfect opportunity to do so.

We hope that you’ll enjoy this new mechanic and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

Event: Diversity Ranking

[p]Commanders![/p][p]This week we’re going to get into the entire ranking thing in earnest with the first Diversity Ranking event.[/p][p][/p][p]A server-wide ranking list is available but this time, the rules (and the prizes) are different. Between September 19 and September 22 (16 CEST), deal damage using as many vehicles as possible as only a single (best) match will count per each vehicle. For example, this means:[/p]
  • [p]Playing 10 times during the event with vehicle A will only count once (the best result from these 10 matches)[/p]
  • [p]Playing 5 times during the event with vehicle A and 5 times with vehicle B will count twice (the best result for each vehicle)[/p]
[p]And so on. These results are them summed to produce your total ranking damage. As usual:[/p]
  • [p]The ranking list will refresh once per day[/p]
  • [p]All regular modes and vehicles count[/p]
[p]The prizes are as follows:[/p]
  • [p]Top 3 damage dealers will earn 10000 Gold each[/p]
  • [p]Players ranked 4th to 15th will receive 5000 Gold each[/p]
  • [p]Players ranked 16th to 30th will receive 2000 Gold each[/p]
[p]We hope that you will enjoy the event and, as always:[/p][p]See you on the battlefield![/p]
