Question on my mind: Does it mean wheeled vehicles and functional multi turret guns are coming to WoT?

Week 2 was tough for me because getting 50K spotting damage wasn't that easy with the level of skills of players in the team... tough to get even 1K spotting damage in a battle.

In the end, I completed the mission by slugging it out with patience and persistence. Week 3 has started and its now time to take out the heavily armored tanks out of the garage.

After 50K damage, 50K spotting and this week 50K blocking damage; what madness Week 4 mission will be... sweat.gif

Surprisingly, this week's mission isn't listed in the special & in game events website.... hmm.gif <Link>

[Special] 100 Years of Tanks: Week 4 <Viewable in the ingame mission and special tab>
Event Start: 05 September, 2016 (Monday) @ 13:30 - 14:00 UTC+8 (06:00 UTC)
Event End: 12 September, 2016 (Monday) @ 13:30 - 14:00 UTC+8 (06:00 UTC)

Mission: 100 Years Week Start
Objective: Earn 30,000 EXP over any number of Random Battles.

Mission: 100 Years Week Complete
Objective: Destroy a total of 50 enemy vehicles over any number of battles

Easy, straight forward mission with plenty of time to accomplish it.

Interestingly on the WoT EU server Special: 100 Years of Tanks
QUOTE
Sounds good so far? Then get ready for "great," because there's more: The more complete-weekly-mission segments you finish, the more emblems you will get! There will be a total of 4 different emblems, so if you want to collect all of them you will need to finish at least 4 weekly mission segments out of 5 that we have prepared. Moreover, each weekly mission segment completion will upgrade the medal by one class: The first completion will grant you the IV class medal, the second will upgrade it to a III class, the third one will make it a II class, and finally the fourth completion will upgrade it to a I class.
Guess we will have to wait and see IF another 100 Years of Tanks mission pops out next week... If it does, it's good news for players that miss out previous missions.

Nothing much this week nor the previous week and I completed all 4 weekly missions .

Well, I did ask for the opportunity to start WoT v4 thread... so I have to do it. Besides that I have an interest in military history.

sweat.gif My IGN? Really sorry but I prefer to remain anonymous... We were in a team a few days ago tho. Been slowly grinding another account since early this year; Will take a while to grind though with the ongoing events. When I'm ready, sure why not?

I play exclusively as a solo player as well, but I don't find it boring. I make plans with short, medium and long term goals to stay motivated. There's 400+ tanks to research or buy in the premium shop with 5 distinctive gameplay tactics. Reading the history, development and operation of tanks keeps me interested as well.

Frankly, I've been wanting to go on a long sabbatical but there is an ingame event that pulls me back in. Been neglecting my Steam account for a few years now. sad.gif

A Guide to Remarkable Play in "Convoy" Mode
Looks fun similar to the old capture the flag mode in domination a while ago.





NA and EU players are playing the Convoy event since yesterday. Meanwhile, all quiet on the ASIA front..... No announcement on the 9.15.2 patch. Still, this can be a blessing in disguise for players that use mods.








Still plenty of missions to do and achieve on this server.

One of my favorite derp TD. Prefer this to more popular Hetzer due to its higher HE shell velocity, better gun elevation/depression and superior view range. If you love the Hetzer, give this TD a try.

On the news today:
BBC News: World War Two tanks auctioned off by cash-strapped museum

Pz IV Wreck @ Normandy Museum
The PzIV wreck wasn't listed in auction though. I wonder what's price estimate for this tank. There is a Tiger I in the video at 01:46. Dunno if it a real or replica though.

WW2 tanks, motorbikes fetch impressive prices at Normandy auction
Looks like i wont be getting one to decorate my lawn or living room anytime soon... sad.gif
