Why does the combat xp earned have to go to Tier I?  Other than that, can't wait for it to start

Because everyone has them unlocked?

About as usefull as it going to a ter 10 vehicle. The idea is you either turn on Accelerated Training or convert it to Free Exp.

lol wg why didn't you just wait a couple more weeks and call it a spring showdown

[Xenonraz]

So what happens if you have already one of the 3 tanks? You get the crew for it two times?

(Since you would have one in your tank and you get one after the event)

well this gonna be fun cant wait :3

but ofc as usual here comes whine:

-RU server had this waaaaaay before us cuz......REASONS by WG

-no german crew again for me >_<

-since i dont get german or japanese crew only thing i get from this mode is credits which you could get in randoms/TB anyway

[Grippin]

Ummm... Why is this so big deal? I mean... C'mon... Banner change with countdown and missions and everything... I'm more interested in 9.6 for now,  I'll try it though ...

[ivanpetroff]

Nice, we can make some silver and train some crew, this mode was very fun first 2 days in RU server (a lot of XP and silver bomuses), but was nerfed...

 

After that time, there was not additional XP and silver for win, only for mission accomplished (1700/2500/3300 hp  damage done and 5x25 battles with damage>500). Anyway, even after the nerf, platoons still can farm a lot silver and crew XP. 

 

P.S. Dont take base and dont heal, it is pointless after nerf. Just do your 2500/3300 damage and you can stop fire and or go swim... Anyway, if you play LT or HT, pls destroy bricks for ur TD, they will thank you for that...

Wow.. so not gonna play this

[Titanium_Ghost]

Time and effort wasted again ... another stupid useless stuff.

 

European tech trees have not been prepared so far, multi-threads support for PC processors not prepared; british, japanise, and french premium tanks on tier VIII. not prepared; "individual" missions require platoon .....

and WG works on this useless content .... What a shame !

What bugs will this bring?

[TheR3dBaron]

I already have a T110E5 crew, so I will probably not bother playing them, or just once to get a 100% american crew extra. The others, I may play a bit and I hope the will get trained on the vehicles as promised, since we normally can't train for tanks which are not unlocked yet.

[legendkiller16]

So we only get it now and the russian have it for 3 weeks allready?

Is it possible to complete the "Winter Battles" missions playing platoons?

Yes. Superplatoons of 5 tanks, and you have platoon missions with a lot of XP/silver.
