Nice...
But not really. I mean missions are fine and equipment and consumables disscounts are awesome and always welcomed... But what's with that useless 10% dissscount on high tier vehicles?
I would rather have standard 30% disscount on tier 6 and 7 vehicles which wasn't featured in ages. And why is it ignored? It's very usefull and needed, at least for me.

Excellent, nicely timed 50% off equipment and consumables for my new free play only account. X2 crew is also great, love that, does it stack with the X2 crew of the Top of the tree? I'm currently using a Panzer derpwagon 4 so X4 crew xp would be really nice if it's a case of X2 TOTT and X2 Crew is crucial?
Also, I'm Irish so can I get like... a bonus X2 per battle?

As per usual I'll point out the frustration of many Irish each 17th as misinformed people like those at WG present a 4 leaf clover as a shamrock. Kind of a tradition for me at this stage after so many years of pointing this out to WG time and time again.
Also can someone please explain to me why of all nations and tanks is the cromwell on the banner for St Patrick's Day? does WG need a history lesson on which countries have invaded and slaughtered the Irish? We are celebrating Ireland with a tank on the banner named after someone who slaughtered our people and invaded our country? hello?
What the hell is wrong with you WG? Does each mark on the barrel signal so many hundred or thousand Irish killed by the tank also or what? 
It's so insensitive, obviously someone just didn't make the connection but would you be celebrating a Polish holiday or Russian victory day with a Tiger II on the banner or Maus.
Oh the Cromwell irony!!! Irony isn't even the right word...

10% not that unusual wasn't it the norm to offer 50% up to tier five 30% for tier six and seven then 10% for eight and up.
30% is more a once a year thing twice if we are lucky.
Just unlock tanks then wait for the opportune moment to buy equip and crew them.
It was 15% discount for tiers VIII-X.

Still 15% on RU server:

Wonder if this 10% stacks with the Christmas discount? Will find out tomorrow.
Nice consumables discount though, just in time running out of food, better get stocked up ahead of 29th March
Discounts never stack, only the higher discount is applied.

Well I'm Irish and don't really care a whole lot, you do know St. Patrick was British born and came from Roman controlled Britain? He's not actually Irish or anything? Anyway, I get the gripe about the clover shamrock thing but for me it's technicality that WG could have easily righted without even changing the clover to a shamrock. Ok, Shamrock is the symbol most associated with St. Patricks day and St. Patrick used the 3 leaf plant to symbolize the trilogy of Christianity, everyone following? As in the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, as the story goes, and the 3 leaves of the shamrock reflecting that trilogy as St. Patrick explained to the heretic evil Irish Pagans at the time, such was our way, Celt Pagan Gods and all that fun sort of stuff.
In regards to the WoT St. Patricks day 4 lead clover, all WG had to do, still can do, is change their wording from referring to it as shamrock, because it's not, and call it what it is, clover. This is still fine because clover is for luck and there's that old saying "Luck of the Irish" so all good in the emerald hood. But ya it's like suggesting a Daisy is the symbol of England instead of a Rose, not sure it's going to pass tbh lol. Nettle for Scotland? lol ok ok enough. Welsh Poodle? Dragon indeed who knew??

I'm well aware of where he came from and who he was, still does not explain why a tank named after Oliver Cromwell someone which butchered civilians is on the banner. I play the tank ingame, I have it 3 marked but again what is that tank doing on the front page with shamrock clouds behind it to celebrate an Irish holiday.

Ya it's a strange inclusion. When I saw it first I thought maybe it was the release of a premium Irish Comet or something cash grab like that. Then I just assumed it was nothing more and still do, than classic ignorance. This is a Belorussian company so probably know little to nothing about Ireland or it's history and so probably think Ireland is part of the UK(which it partially is with NI) so ignorantly attached a UK tank, and couldn't have picked a better one than the Crommie lol. Same as many forumites including myself no little to nothing of Belorussian history with many thinking WG is Russian owned and that Belarus and Russia are the same place which clearly they're not so I just assumed this was a case of this sort of ignorance and nothing more.
If it makes you feel any better, when the Monarch was restored shortly after Cromwell's death, his body was dug back up, hung by the neck and his head cut off and stuck atop a 20 foot pole over Westminister as an example where it remained for years before a storm knocked it down or something. Regimes change hands, power is always fought over, more die by their own than by that caused by any other country, same everywhere across the worlds history. Does it make it ok? No but... we're not a nice bunch of animals are we?. Since we were kids we play war games and it's the tanks and guns and everything violent and nasty that attracts us the most, it's the way we are, but you don't have to be that way obviously and thankfully as a society we are trying to move away from that though every border and country was created and won with violence and the spilling of blood, nobody ever create a country because they gently asked if they could. I'm rambling away from point here, anyway, for more of Olivers less than flattering finish, you can read here.(Good ol Wiki)
