Updated map pool for Strongholds

Hello Tankers!

Based on your feedback, which we collected, after the “Mercenaries” event, we decided to make some changes to the map pool in Stronghold mode. From February 20 these maps will be added, or removed from the rotation: (note, only the underlined ones are added, the rest are removed)

  • Tier VI:  Karelia, Prokhorovka, El Halluf, Studzianki, Overlord, Glacier
  • Tier VIII: Mannerheim Line, Minsk, Studzianki, Overlord, Pilsen,  Glacier
  • Tier X:  Mannerheim Line, Overlord
  • Advance (Landings):  Monastery, El Halluf, Overlord
  • Advance (Random Map):  El Halluf,  Westfield, Redshire, Live Oaks, Serene Coast

On February 20, another event will appear. You will be able to get 50% more industrial raw materials for playing Strongholds. Use the acquired resources to expand your fortresses, and get ready for the upcoming Global Map season!

Mark your calendars: The Challenge on Wheels kicks off February 21st! Complete it and you’ll earn yourself a unique Tier VIII Premium wheeled vehicle, the Panhard EBR 75.

This Challenge is truly special and will let you experience taming a quick and agile scout. We know it’s not going to be easy, but by the end of this event, you’re going to get an outstanding vehicle, which you’ll show off with pride… and spark envy in other Commanders!

The concept will be familiar to those of you who took part in last year’s Winter and British Challenges. However, this time about half of the Commitment missions will be close to the Mastery tasks in terms of complexity. We tried to find a kind of “equilibrium” and make them challenging, yet feasible. Check ‘em out!

Stage 1:

Mission for commitment  

Earn a total of 3 000 base experience points.

Only experience earned for being among the top-10 players on your team by experience earned is counted; can be completed in Tier VI-X vehicles only.

Mission for mastery

Destroy at least 3 enemy vehicles 1 time. Cause at least 3 000 HP of damage.

Available only for Tier IX-X vehicles.

Rewards

Frontline Feedback by RagingRaptor

It gets boring rather quickly as it is the same map over and over. I really do recommend getting more maps over the course of the whole season! Do consider giving a 50% bonus to the ranking points to the winner team to make the grind less painful and long aswell as promote actively working for a win! You increased the point need by 62% to reach one prestige compared to the first time Frontline was around so why not add this bonus for winning? Right now you could easily say you want to throw a win to just get general. With that added bonus you could get general like points with major! And I you carried your team well, boom, free general plus an additional 650 points!

Next I think that there is almost no point in attacking Pillboxes as an Attacker. For some reason the rank gain from capping is bonkers huge while the point gain from attacking pillboxes is close to minimal… Consider giving us more points for attacking the pillboxes. In the end those are the MAIN Objectives! So why do they give so little points? Also consider that the inspire reserve also gives assistant points when you attack the pillboxes. In the end it is like… 100% worth to use inspire against the pillboxes as you usually want to win the game! So please consider adding the inspire assistant points for damage on pillboxes by allies which are inspired by you!

Now something positive. I love that you gave the pillboxes those 25mm weakspots at the back! Awesomesauce! It really lets good players aim for them and push out some max DPS with HE! Very well done!

AW: End of Polish FB Page & Discord

As a possible sign of things to come, it was announced on 11 February by Polish CM MaciekM4a4 that the Polish AW Discord section will be closed on 15 February (today), the users being redirected to the English channels. The same fate is also to be shared by the Polish AW Facebook page and MaciekM4a4 himself resigned from the CM function. The game and articles on the main page will still be available in Polish.
