Operation "Hearthlight" in World of Tanks Blitz

[p][/p][p]There's nothing like returning to your hometown in winter—visiting relatives, walking the familiar streets adorned with decorations, and, of course, exchanging presents! What are the holidays without them? Luckily, yours are already here! In the new Operation, you'll take a stroll through the festive town, and claim avatars, war paints, and the Hearthlight Legendary camouflage for the VK 100.01 (P)![/p][h2]
How Do I Get Rewards?[/h2][p]
You'll need a Tier III or higher vehicle to participate.

The Operation has two progression paths, each offering 60 levels with rewards. The first path is available to all regular Pass holders—so, everyone! The second path offers more rewards and is exclusively available to Premium Pass holders. Complete the Operation missions to boost your Pass level and earn rewards.

Just keep in mind that your Pass level will increase automatically, but you'll need to take action to collect the rewards. [/p][p][/p][h2]What Are the Rewards?[/h2][p]
Tons of resources, a Collector tank, themed warpaints and avatars, a profile background, certificates that provide XP bonuses for victories, and a Legendary camo for a researchable Tier VIII vehicle![/p]
