Halloween: Nightmare Operations

Captains!

On the night of October 31 to November 1, the shadows get thicker, and the monsters awaken again. To drive out the darkness, you must become a monster yourself.

Some familiar Operations return. Are you ready to take helms of incredible steel monsters to dispel the darkness?

Halloween
[/h2]
[h3]This year, we are celebrating Halloween in two stages[/h3]
  • The first stage takes place throughout Update 0.10.9. During this period, Operations Saving Transylvania and Sunray in the Darkness will be available.
  • The second stage starts on the third week of the update and lasts until the release of Update 0.10.10. You will be able to participate in the Twilight Hunt temporary battle type—a reworked version of the Big Hunt that was available during Update 0.10.2.

In this article, we are going to remind you about the festive Operations and tell you about the updated rewards. As for the Twilight Hunt, we will talk about it later in a separate article. Stay tuned for more news on our website!

Both Operations will be available as Operations of the Week. Players will also have an opportunity to team up with their friends in a Division and fight the evil at any of the three difficulty levels throughout the entirety of Update 0.10.9!

    Attention! The first completion of the Operation at the Super Hard difficulty level with three Stars or more will reward brave Captains with a new Jack-o’-Lantern Premium container.


By completing Operations at every difficulty level, you can earn expendable camouflages, signals, and days of Warships Premium time. The more successfully you fight, the better your reward will be!

Saving Transylvania
[/h2]
Operation Saving Transylvania will be available at Normal difficulty during the first and last weeks of Update 0.10.9 and at Hard difficulty during the second week. You can also complete the Operation as part of a Division throughout Update 0.10.9 at all three difficulty levels, including the Super Hard one.

The main task in this Operation is to escort a ship called Transylvania on her winding route to a safe place. On the way, you must protect her from the attacks of catapults and Zikasa ships possessed by the darkness. At the end of this journey, players will face the final boss—the evil and dangerous battleship Rasputin.

For Operation Saving Transylvania, we will provide players with the following ships manned by Commanders with 21 skill points:
  • Destroyer III Blade with Commander Abraham V. Hellsinger
  • Battleship III Jackal with Commander Henry J. Hide
  • Cruiser III Igor with Commander Victor F. Einstein

[expand] [/expand]
    Halloween Commanders earn Elite Commander XP, which can be spent on training Commanders of the in-game nations.


[h3]Primary task[/h3]
Escort and protect Transylvania during her escape through the Portal.

[h3]Secondary tasks[/h3]
Apart from the primary task, the team can complete five secondary tasks to increase the reward they earn:
  • Transylvania must not lose 50% or more of her HP during the voyage.
  • Destroy at least 16 Zikasa ships.
  • Neutralize all catapults on the map.
  • Transylvania must not stop until reaching the end of the route. To ensure that this condition is completed, at least one player should always remain near the ship.
  • Sink battleship Rasputin.

Sunray in the Darkness
[/h2]
When Transylvania and her defenders return to their home realm, they face an even bigger evil. The entire kingdom is at risk! The most advanced ships of the royal fleet are awaiting your orders. Put a stop to the invasion and save the civilians!

Operation Sunray in the Darkness, which has already become a traditional continuation of Saving Transylvania, will be available to players as the Operation of the Week at Normal and Hard difficulty levels. Take on Operation Sunray in the Darkness to get generous prizes!
  • At Normal difficulty, the Operation will be available during the third week of Update 0.10.9.
  • Hard difficulty level of the Operation will become available on the fourth week.
    Throughout Update 0.10.9, the Operation can also be completed as part of a Division at Normal and Hard difficulty, as well as at Super Hard one.


The Forces of Darkness are breaking through the Portal. Your mission is to fend off their attacks, but you won't be alone. The security towers will try to seal the Portal, but you will have to protect the towers from enemy ships. Along with monsters, the Filth—a dense fog—is leaking through the Portal and endangering life itself.

Be careful: While in the Filth, your ship takes damage each second. The amount of damage you receive depends on your ship type. Besides this, visibility and ship detectability decrease significantly in the Filth. At the same time, the Filth benefits your enemies by restoring their hit points and reducing the amount of damage they take. Note that your main task is to protect the towers until they seal the Portal.

For Operation Sunray in the Darkness, we will provide players with the following ships manned by Commanders with 21 skill points:
  • Destroyer VIII Urashima with Commander Mina Hurray
  • Cruiser VIII Svyatozar with Commander Ivan K. Ulibin
  • Battleship VIII Magnu-S with Commander Klaus V. Teslau

[expand] [/expand]
[h3]Primary task[/h3]
Protect the towers until they seal the ominous Portal to another dimension.

[h3]Secondary tasks[/h3]
The team can complete five secondary tasks that increase the reward they earn for completing the primary task:
  • Successfully defend at least two towers.
  • Sink battleship Rasputin.
  • Sink aircraft carrier The Great Gorgon.
  • Destroy 30 enemy ships in the Filth.
  • Successfully defend Transylvania.
