Mission Marathon: FV4202 (P)

Hello everyone,

Just a reminder that the mission to get the FV4202 (P) is incoming on the EU Server. From 15 February at 06:50 (CET) to 29 February at 06:50 (CET). Remember that the mission is only available to players who own the Centurion Action X (i.e. have the tank in their garage) by 18 February. If you get the tank later than that, you will not be able to complete the missions. For those who don’t want or won’t have time to do the missions, the tank will be available in the shop later and you will be able to buy it.

The missions:

  • FV4202 Part 1
    • Earn at least 750 base XP in the course of one battle (bonuses for the first victory, Premium account, etc., will not be counted)

  • Requirements

I personally will try to get it but the main question is, is it worth it? Well, it’s entirely up to you to decide this. It’s not a great premium tank, but it’s not the worse out there and remember, it’s free. Let us know what you think. Good luck to everyone.

Saumur Tank Museum (Part 2)

Continuing from where I left it on Saumur Tank Museum (Part 1) I’ll cover the German Hall on today’s post.

The German Hall contemplated me with several new vehicles I have never seen before and a few ones I had but with some diferences. The order of the tanks is quite nice to understand how Germany developed their tanks during the War. The Tiger I in display is quite an unique vehicle to see, it’s one of the last seven remaining in the World and it’s very different from the Tiger 131 that is in display at Bovington Tank Museum.

Saumur Tank Museum (Part 1)

I always dreamed on seeing the tanks I used to see in history books in person when I was a kid. Used to imagine myself going to places and be amazed by these vehicles and all of the engineering behind them. When I moved to the UK back in 2011, the first thing I did when I finally had money was to buy a car and go to the Bovington Tank Museum. My wife said to me when we got there “You look like a kid with a new toy”… And I was, I was finally seeing what I always dreamed of and I could touch them but this post is not about that visit, I’ll leave that to a latter post.

I will be sharing with you, in a series of posts, my visit to the Saumur Tank Museum, in Saumur, France or in as the French say Le Musée des Blindés de Saumur, back in September 2015.

I found myself in here when I finally decided to find where the French museum was and to my surprise, I found out that it was 80 km from where me and my wife usually stop to sleep on our road trip to Portugal… yeah, I drive all the way to Portugal from the UK once or twice a year and its an amazing trip.

And I have to be honest, it wasn’t disappointing. The museum has a huge collection and with very unique vehicles for any tank enthusiast to go crazy about, in total the museum has over 800 vehicles and over 200 are in full working order.

The visit costs a mere 8€ and if you want to take pictures/videos you have to pay an extra 5€, which is a great price for what you get.
