Hello everyone,
as you probably all know, there is currently a bug in the game, that prevents you from disabling the word filter (censorship) of messages.
This can be fixed by replacing the messenger_oldictionary.xml with an empty file. You can download the fixed file here. Just copy it to the “World_of_Tanks\res\text” folder (don’t forget to make a backup of the old file, just in case).
Very little today
- SerB would like to add destructable/deformable ground to WoT, but so far it is beyond technical possibilities
- SerB on Golden Joystick and the wave of negative feedback on it: “Personally, to be honest, I don’t care about it”
- VK3002M having too few hitpoints? “How terrible…”
Test server busy! Enjoy :)
Hello everyone,
just quick heads up to FTR readers from Israel: there is an Israeli World of Tanks community forming:
Hello dear Tankers!
We are glad to invite you the Israeli World of Tanks Community
Due to the large number of Israeli players who play this wonderful game on all servers, we have came to a decision that there is a need for a united Isaeli WoT community.
We offer vital information and news, along with new of a kind guide and commentary videos in Hebrew.
Please join us and our effort of uniting the Israeli players by inviting your friends.
See you on the battlefield!

Hello everyone,
today, we have something special, a guest article by David “Listy” Lister. You probably know the game from EU portal, where he wrote several interesting articles for Challenger’s historical section.
Carrying a Name
One mistake I see over and over again, in both museums and on-line forums, is getting the name of armoured fighting vehicles wrong. One of the worst for this is the British Carrier family. What many don’t realise is that all the different names used for the vehicle are actually very specific models. So want to be able to correct someone, or point out that a display plaque is wrong at a museum? Then read on.
Hello everyone,
so, today in the morning, I finished the EU event mission, awarding the 1 million credits, 7 days of premium and some premium consumables (worth 300k in total, so that’s 1300k credits). As you might know (SEA also had this event, I thought NA had it too, but I was wrong), the goal was to gather 20 kills on StuG III, 20 on Type T-34 and 20 on Churchill I. The mission goals were comprehensible in general, apart from two moments:
- on EU server I noticed several complaints about the fact that you have to finish one extra battle after those 60 kills, which led some people to believe that it has to be finished in one of the mission vehicles
Hello everyone,
first, thanks to Daigensui, who posted this on US forums, it kinda slipped my attention before.
From the same authors as the “How to become a noob” video. This one contains some pretty epic situations :)
In a recent Q&A (Friday the 13th’s) serB was asked if there was enough British heavies or mediums for a for a second Branch.
“doubtful”
This is probably part laziness and part ignorance. I’m going to start a short series, explaining some of the additional branches that could rather easily be added (okay, some of them are a little more difficult than others, but it certainly isn’t doubtful)
Welcome to the 13th edition of Ensign’s Q&A. You know the drill: email me questions at tankarchives@gmail.com, and I will answer them. The previous Q&A can be found here.
Q: Were all KV transmissions as bad as the Aberdeen one?
A: No, the one Aberdeen received was “gently” used. KV transmissions were typically much more reliable.
Q: How much did the various KV designs have in common?
A: I don’t know exactly, but there are requirements for parts commonality in some project specs (usually SPGs based on an existing vehicle). I’d have to read the specs to see exactly how much, but parts commonality with existing vehicles can be a great bonus to getting your design chosen among competing ones.
