The New Year's Auction: The Last Stage!



Season's greetings, Commanders!

My workshop is loaded with rare tanks again, and that means it's time to start the third and final stage of the Holiday Auction! Hurry up! The number of vehicles is limited!

To the Auction
CIS | Europe | North America | Asia

The Auction offers you an opportunity to purchase rare vehicles. The main feature of the Auction is that the vehicle prices are lowered every day, but the amount of vehicles is limited, so they might go out of stock at any moment. Don't miss this chance to add rare vehicles to your collection!

How does the Auction work?

The Auction is held in three stages. At the beginning of the first stage, only some of the lots will be up for sale—five vehicles, to be exact. For the next stage, another five tanks will become available for purchase, while the original lots will be removed within an allotted time period, even if they haven't sold out. And after that, this scenario will repeat once again. You'll always find the list of vehicles available for purchase on the Auction page.

Here are the lots of the third stage!

Lots for January 1–9
Attention: On January 9, the Auction will close!

The T28 Defender and IS-3 Defender
Despite their names, these vehicles will perform great not only on the defense, but on the attack as well. Both fighters have reliable frontal armor and powerful, penetrative guns with three-shell magazines.

The Predator Ultramarines and Vindicator Ultramarines
These are the two space marines, the brutality of which can only be compared to their own combat might. They feature thick frontal armor and an impressive armament. The Predator UM wields a quick-firing gun with a three-shell magazine while the Vindicator UM uses a devastating gun with an average damage of 640 HP per shot.

M60
Wonder-Tank and Jack of All Trades: it can cover allies, defend the base, and even arrange a diversion behind enemy lines. It boasts impressive mobility and a quick-firing gun with a short aiming time and great depression and elevation angles.

The New Year's Day Auction: Stage 2!



Season's greetings, Commanders!
My cozy workshop is loaded with rare tanks again, and that means it's time to start the second stage of the Holiday Auction!

Lots available from December 25 to January 1
Attention: these lots will be removed from the Auction on January 1!

Dracula
Flight like a butterfly with the bite like a vampire. Featuring a gun with good damage and great stabilization, this tank's fantastic speed and maneuverability make many light tanks green with envy.
They say that the Dracula fears garlic and wooden stakes, but I dare not give it a try.

Helsing
Strong and stern just like any good monster hunter should be. It owns good speed and an accurate, quick-firing gun that lets loose two shells at a time. Rumor has it the Helsing has little love for the Dracula.

Gravedigger
It features solid frontal armor that deflects shells to complement its quick-firing gun with a six-shell magazine. The name says it all. A battlefield encounter will bring opponents no good. If you're lucky, you'll emerge with a one-way ticket to the Garage. If you're not... Well, let's not even think about it.

AMX 30 B
The AMX 30 B used to dream about being a racing car, but then it changed its mind and became a tank. Running around the battlefield at speeds of up to 65 km/h, it fires at the enemy with its 105 mm gun that has great depression and elevation angles. It'll be no time before it starts to outrace shells!

M4A3E8 Fury
This movie star tank is as rare as finding a unicorn, a phoenix, and a mermaid together. Feeling right at home on the battlefield, this celebrity has a decent amount of HP and a quick-firing gun with good stabilization and comfortable depression and elevation angles.

New Year's Day Auction



Greetings, Commanders!
I'm Chris. That's my stern, bearded face in the picture above. I have two favorite pastimes in life: catching snowflakes on my tongue and assembling tank models. Recently, I've accumulated so many rare, powerful vehicles that I can't cram them all into my cozy workshop anymore. So I've decided to hold a holiday auction!

Pop in to the Auction and start the new year by replenishing your collection with rare tanks!

Here's the first group of lots!

Lots available from December 19 through 26
Attention: these lots will be removed from the Auction on December 26!

Object 252U
The Object 252U is a powerful and reliable tank. It's a versatile fighter that can both push the flanks and hold the line, all while decorating the Christmas tree. I'm not sure about the last one, though. I haven't seen it myself (from this point on, comments are by Chris).

Tankenstein
The Tankenstein is a heavy tank assembled from parts of different battle vehicles. One glance at this hulk will be enough to make the enemy want to return to the safety of their Garage. It boasts sturdy frontal armor, a decent amount of HP, and two powerful guns to choose from.

leKpz M 41 90 mm
The leKpz M 41 90 mm is easy on the eyes, maneuverable, and fast as lightning. That is lightning moving at a speed of 72 km/h. It's equipped with an accurate, fast-firing gun with good stabilization. On top of that, the leKpz M 41 90 mm is very fast. Have I mentioned that yet?

WZ-112-2
The WZ-112-2 is a heavy tank with impressive single-shot damage, reliable armor, and a solid turret great at repelling enemy shells. All in all, it has everything you need to feel good in battle and to make sure your enemies don't feel as good.

Lorraine 40 t
The Lorraine 40 t is an agile, adrenaline-laden tank that doesn't like to sit still. It might not have the sturdiest armor, but remember, to deal damage, you need to hit the vehicle first. Which, you'll agree, is not an easy thing to do when the target is moving at 60 km/h, zigzagging, and shooting back from a 90-mm gun.
