17:00 Grand Lucky Draw... and more!
Although the 1st day of TPGS was drawing to a close, there were still plenty of interesting activities waiting for everyone at the Wargaming booth. One of it was the Grand Lucky Draw where two lucky players get to receive the Chinese tier VI premium light tank Type 64. The second program was the Mini Game - Body Guards in which random players were chosen from the audience and then divided into two teams. Both teams were then assigned a tank to protect. According to the rules, they must destroy the opposing teams' designated tank in order to win. The third and also the final program was the Final Lucky Draw. Only one player was drawn, and the lucky chap was rewarded with a photo session with our 22 beautiful WG Girls! He was definitely the envy of all men that day.
Would you like to know the program for January 24?
