Tank Commanders,

It's almost time for Lunar New Year 2016! We still have some weeks to go before it's really here, but we've gone ahead and prepared some great new missions to tide you over until then.

With a total of 8 missions to go through, you're all set to receive a variety of consumables and equipment rewards for the entire duration of this special. Please note however that each mission will be available sequentially, and will only be available for 24 hours each.

Aside from that, the newest x2 Crew Experience special will also be activated again for the entire duration. Have a look at the details below to learn more!

Win a free Type 59 this week!
