27.08.2015 Q&A

 Here it is:

- 113 getting any armor changes? "I cannot say anything";
- Storm is unhappy with some Russian bloggers and players twisting his words to cause butthurt and discontent;
- T110E5 armor is screwed! A: "Stop spamming";
- At first WG wanted to model Chieftain Mk.2 but there are none left really, the Bovington one turned out to be Mk.6.

Calling All Leakers: Chieftain is Here

Hello warriors,

last night, the Chieftain in HD was introduced to the supertest. Strangely enough nobody leaked it yet, very unusual. It would be nice if someone did.

Here's a catch: the Chieftain is introduced as a tier 10 PREMIUM (as in, CW event tank). Don't worry, it's not intentional - the developers (due to some internal client issues) decided to test is a premium  but it WILL be a regular tank (the FV215b replacement). So no panic.

Type 59 G in HD

Thank you Louie X.

Hear ye Warriors!

Behold the tackiest tank! The HD version of Gold Type 59, a Chinese market-only vehicle!

New Ranzar Video

Hello Warriors,
