[h2]Spoiler season starts now: First new Uprising cards[/h2]
[h3]We kick off the spoiler season with the legendary INNISKILLING FUSILIERS[/h3]
The Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers was an Irish regiment of the British Army and was active from 1881 to 1968. During WWII, the regiment was raised from 2 battalions to 5, the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 6th, and 70th.
The 1st Battalion was stationed in British India when the war broke out and fought in the British colony of Burma against Japanese forces. The 2nd Battalion was part of the British Expeditionary Forces in France before being evacuated at Dunkirk in 1940. In 1942 the Battalion was sent to Madagascar, where it fought the Vichy French.
In 1943, the 2nd participated in the Invasion of Sicily, followed by the advance into Italy, as part of the British Eighth Army. The 5th Battalion served as a home defense formation in the UK, where it spent the war. The 6th Battalion was formed in 1940 and was later redesignated 38th (Irish) Infantry Brigade, which fought with the 6th Armoured Division in the Invasion of Sicily, Italy, and the Tunisian Campaign. The 70th Battalion was raised early in the war and was for young volunteers who had not reached the age to be conscripted. The 70th was disbanded in 1943 without seeing active service.
[h3]The second reveal of today is the Polish HURRICANE PL[/h3]
After the fall of Poland, the Polish Fighter Squadrons that were flying for RAF were initially issued Hurricanes.
During the Battle of Britain, the highest scoring Hurricane squadron was the No. 303 Polish Fighter Squadron, with 126 claimed kills vs. 18 losses in 6 weeks, which also was the highest kill-to-loss ratio during the battle. For comparison, one British pilot was killed for every downed enemy aircraft, but the Poles downed 10.5 enemy aircraft per pilot death.
What gave the Poles the edge was that they were older and more experienced, plus they had learned to fly on more primitive planes in Poland, which helped them take advantage of the extra speed and maneuverability that the Hurricane gave them.
But above all, the Poles were super-vigilant in their cockpits, always alert and ready to react.
[h2]Last chance to get the Breakthrough: Catalyst set[/h2]
With the arrival of Uprising on September 9th, we will remove the Breakthrough: Catalyst bundle from the in-game store. If you want to grab the whole Catalyst bundle, do it now for real money or in-game gold.
The Catalyst cards themselves stay in the game, of course. They are part of the Breakthrough set; you can get them now and in the future by opening Breakthrough packs. You can also use wildcards to get your Catalyst cards.
Stay tuned for more as we approach the Uprising mini-release on September 9th. There are card reveals now every day!
