Regarding the “free tank for weekend missions” rumor
Hello everyone,
just a quick heads up: there is a rumor going around (possibly started by some blog about WoT I got sent a link to) that you will get a free premium tank (specifically an IS-6, but other versions of this rumor also exist), if you complete all of the “kill 20 enemies with tank XY” weekend missions over several weekends.
It has been confirmed by Wargaming (I asked) that this rumor is FALSE, definitely for US and EU server. There is no summary tank reward planned. Sorry guys, this one’s a bust.
Garage battles – yay or nay?
Hello everyone,
today we are going to have a look at the Garage Battle mode in connection with the fact that Veider (one of the developers) stated yesterday (if the translation is correct), that these are not really planned.
Chieftain discusses the Japanese line
Well, it’s a stream with Chieftain (“tank god”) and Pico Maus (US), pretty interesting stuff. Watch it if you haven’t watched the stream!

- it’s not possible to transfer WoWp maps to WoT, as both are made differently (SS: the map in question is specifically the WoWp “Eastern border” map or something like that) – SerB states there will be cool-looking maps for WoT too, but other
- regarding the maps, SerB states that if they tried to convert a map from WoWp to WoT, the amount of work would be the same as if they did the map from scratch
Charity EU not-so-fail
Hello everyone,
just a quick update, because this might actually interest a few folks. Yesterday, Wargaming EU introduced their charity drive (well, sort of). That was like in the morning. The charity mentioned in the article was the War Child, a respectable charity helping (as the name suggests) war children.
In the night, the text was unexpectedly changed however (picture not mine, took it from the english thread):
The name of the charity was removed and some folks started crying foul play – well, that is until Challenger (EU server’s military expert) stepped in and explained the whole situation: in short, due to some legal matters, the charity name had to be removed (possibly temporarily). So, no worries, the whole deal still stands, the money will still go to the charity.

- if you want to know what inscriptions mean (especially the Chinese), just put your cursor over the inscription and wait, a translation will pop up
- the size of the Japanese crewman collision model will be the same as the size of other crewmen models (SS: this was apparently asked because the Japanese tankers were allegedly smaller than their European counterparts)
- regarding the increased WoT demands on computers with the upcoming implementation of 3.0 shaders: SerB will try to keep the possibility to play WoT on old computers, but he gives no guarantees (SS: this change is allegedly supposed to come in 9.0)

World of Tanks: Rush sold out
Source: http://world-of-kwg.livejournal.com/246787.html
Hello everyone,
some of you might remember that some time ago, a new (real life) collector card game “World of Tanks: Rush” has been introduced. The card game has been published recently (only in Russian). Strangely enough, its publisher reports that the first edition was sold out within 4 days. Second batch (with some rules clarifications) is due to arrive next week.
Strange, isn’t it? I mean… these card games were popular when I was like 15 and that was 15 years ago (Magic the Gathering), didn’t know they still are.
