The Tank Museum in Bovington, U.K. and World of Tanks are once again celebrating Tankfest, a gigantic display of historic moving armor and vehicles from the Second World War! It is the Year of the Sherman, and two icons, which are also available as Premium vehicles, are part of the live show.
What better way to showcase these legends than with dedicated missions and rewards for a special edition of Tank Wars? Instead of a friendly competition between two standard vehicles, we’re doing away with the scores and clearing the stage for the two stars of Tankfest: the American VI M4A3E8 Fury and the German VI Tiger 131 .
Choose the side that fits your style or piques your interest and start completing missions for Tank Wars Points and Stage Rewards. Both sides feature the same discounts and missions for a wide variety of associated vehicles. It’s the perfect opportunity to explore a Tech Tree or return to old favorites that have been gathering dust.

The 131 is surprisingly good for such a small tank. Beats most T34 ez 😮
but i figure the Fury will win this one
The KV-2 and OI derp guns are the bian of the 131; otherwise, yes, it would be a competitive tank.
Kv2 and Oi are slow and inaccurate with lengthy reloads. Opportunities are there…
Regardless. It is a fun tank. The most important part. Also it’s cheap (to maintain)
Quite good for starters i think.
I certainly can think of worse ones.
OMG, I’m going to lube up mr stiffy for this
at least they made this one tier 6 event….so it counts toward battle pass points
