Check out the news here.

Agrona: Just about to post it now.

Mugsy_: Hello,
These are shells which obviously have not yet been implemented. The numbers are just place holders and will be changed for balance at the time of implementation. I apologize for any confusion this has caused.

Agrona: Yes we make adjustments on the info sent in. All of the results are calculated the same way.
I will look into getting a template made, I think that's a good idea too.

Mugsy_: This was posted last week. Meaning your gold will get sent out this week. Please be patience while we process this large in game event. Gold will be given to those who played along with us, those who lost and those who won. We ran three tank companies, as opposed to our usual single company. So it will take us a bit more time to get everyone their rewards. Please hang in there. ~ Mugsy_

GeneralDirection: These events are not designed primarily as something jaw-dropping to only get you to play the tank for the event. They are designed for the every day T29 players to give them a bit of a bonus. Besides, a 25% bonus for sixteen days is not that bad. Heck, I'll certainly play mine more than I normally would during that period--not just because of the bonus but also because it's a fun tank to play.
The "I should play this tank over the next few days" events happen on the weekends.

GeneralDirection: Thanks for coming out everyone, it was great to meet you. We hit capacity once the folks who showed up late arrived. I dare say it's the first player gathering to actually hit the mark we were shooting for. We'll definitely have to come back.

GeneralDirection: I agree that the crew experience rate bonuses are awesome, but if we did it all the time then it wouldn't be a special event. We have another coming though, don't worry!
