Get ready to command the new high-tier British light tanks, experience reworked Personal Missions and battles with friendly fire disabled, and check out the new features of a large customization update!

British Light Tanks

Four menacing light British scouts, from Tier VII to Tier X, are going to storm the battlefields of World of Tanks as part of this update. They sit among the smallest vehicles in the game and boast high concealment rate, good view range and impressive alpha damage for their class. Time to take them for a spin, Commanders!

Tier VII GSR 3301 Setter

Tier VIII LHMTV

Tier IX GSOR3301 AVR FS

Tier X Manticore

Personal Missions

We continue our consistent work on rebalancing Personal Missions. This time we slightly simplified the conditions of about 40 missions of the third operation of the second campaign, which rewards you with the Object 279 early. We’re also changing the conditions of missions for artillery, making them more relevant to the new SPG stun mechanics

Customization Update

Starting from Update 1.6, the in-game interface for interacting with decals will become more intuitive and user-friendly. In addition, we’re introducing new rectangular (multi-dimensional) decals, a fresh set of “classic” square decals and new fonts for Personal Numbers. Finally, you can see detailed information about some of the available styles in the game. Read on for a detailed overview of each feature!

Disabling Friendly Fire/Damage

With this update we’re disabling team damage and team kills caused by friendly fire and ramming in Random Battles. However, it’s still possible for SPGs and other vehicles to be branded “team-killers”. A player who receives this status will lose their protection from friendly fire and can take damage from both allies’ shots and ramming.

Premium Account

Players with Premium will be credited an additional 24 hours of WoT Premium Account time to make up for the update maintenance period. If you’d like to make any in-game purchases, please wait until the servers are running again.

Downtime

World of Tanks servers will be down on 7 August from 02:30 to 08:30 CEST (UTC +2).
