Want to be part a community of like-minded gamers, have an easy way to find tankers to platoon with, and even be able to purchase seasonally exclusive items with a special currency?
Then joining a Regiment is the way to go!
A Regiment is an ongoing association of tankers, similar to a guild or other registered and organized group of gamers. The Regiments system is an evolution of the Clan system that previously existed in World of Tanks Modern Armor; unlike Clans, Regiments are managed inside the game, with one temporary exception:
The ability to rename your Regiment or choose a new tag must be done on the World of Tanks Modern Armor portal. After you change the name or tag, you must wait seven days before you can change either one again. Name and tag changes are free. This function is expected to move into the game as development work continues.
But camaraderie and convenience aren’t all that the Regiments system offers. Read on to learn about how Regiments work!
To get started with a Regiment, head to the “Regiment” tab in the game.
If you’re not in a Regiment, you’ll be shown options for either creating or joining one.
Head to the “Create” screen if you’re ready to be the Commander of your own outfit. On this screen, you’ll be able to set your Regiment up by entering some basic info:
Regiment Name: 2-25 characters (note: special characters are not supported)
Regiment Tag: 2-5 characters (note: special characters are not supported)
Motto (optional!): 2-100 characters
Join Settings:
Application: Anyone can apply.
Invite only: Only people you send an invite to can join.
Creating a Regiment costs 850 Gold.
On the “Join” screen, you’ll be able to search for Regiments by name. You’ll also see a list of Regiments that are currently recruiting new members. If you’ve received invitations from other players to join their Regiments, you’ll see those on this screen as well.
For each Regiment that appears in the search results, clicking on its name will give you two options:
Inspect Regiment
Apply
This will open up additional details for the Regiment.
You can apply from this screen by pressing the Apply button.
This will file an application.
Applications last for seven days; after that, they’ll expire.
No matter how you apply, you will see your applications on the “Join” tab, along with the expiration date.
Other important points to keep in mind, whether you’re creating or joining a Regiment:
You can send out a maximum of six applications to different Regiments at once. Trying to send more will give an error. You can cancel any applications you send out.
You can also receive a maximum of six invites from different Regiments. A Regiment inviting a player at the maximum number of invites will receive an error.
Regiments can send out up to fifteen invites at once. Trying to send more invites will give an error.
Regiments can receive up to fifteen applications at once. Players applying to a Regiment at the maximum number of applicants will receive an error.
Got all that? Then congratulations—you’re ready to be part of something bigger!
Regiment Membership
A Regiment can have up to 100 members. Currently there are four roles available to members:
Private
This is the role given to regular Regiment members. Can access the Headquarters tab.
Recruitment Officer
Regiment members in this role can invite, approve, and deny applications. Can access the Headquarters and Manage tabs.
Maximum of 3 Recruitment Officers per Regiment.
Executive Officer
Regiment members in this role can invite, approve, and deny applications as well as promote Privates to Recruitment Officers or demote Recruitment Officers to Privates. Can access the Headquarters and Manage tabs and edit the Motto.
Maximum of 2 Executive Officers per Regiment.
Commander
The leader of the Regiment. The member in this role is granted all privileges, including the ability to disband the Regiment. Can access the Headquarters and Manage tabs and edit the Motto.
Maximum of 1 Commander per Regiment.
Headquarters Tab
Once you’re in a Regiment, the “Regiments” tab will look quite a bit different.
Your new home base will be the Headquarters Tab. This is where you can see your Regiment's Stats, Daily Missions, and Member List. Regiment stats on this tab are updated once daily.
The Member List will display all members, their Regiment rank, and their online status (green = online, red = offline). Online members will be displayed first, from highest rank to lowest. Offline members will be displayed below online members, again from highest rank to lowest.
From this list, you can select members and be shown possible actions, with the options varying according to your Regiment rank. One of the most useful options is Invite to Platoon. To send a Platoon invite, select a member who is online, select “Invite to Platoon,” and prepare to head into battle alongside a friend!
Manage Tab
Members at the rank of Recruitment Officer and above will have access to the Manage Tab. Here’s where you can recruit new members, edit the Regiment’s details, disband the Regiment, send and accept applications, and manage members. The options available to you will vary depending on your rank and privileges.
Recruit
This is where you can type a player’s name and search for them.
Selecting the account will open the Invite option.
Edit Details
This is where you can edit the Regiment’s Motto or change its Join status (Application or Invite Only).
Disband
This option will disband the Regiment and cannot be undone.
Invites Sent
This will display any invites that have been sent to players.
Clicking on the invite will give the option to Inspect the player or Cancel the invite
Each Regiment can have a maximum of fifteen invites active at a given time.
Applications Received
This will display any applications sent to your Regiment.
Clicking on the application will give the option to Inspect the player, Approve, or Deny the application.
Members List
You can click on members of your Regiment to Promote, Demote, or Discharge them.
The options you have will vary based on your rank.
For a closer look at a few of these options, see the labeled images below:
Another incredible benefit of being part of a Regiment, aside from the fellowship you can enjoy, is the ability to earn an exclusive currency: Regiment Coins.
Once you’re in a Regiment, you’ll see your Regiment Coin balance in the upper-right corner of your screen, below the line that displays your Premium Account days, Silver, and other game currencies. The balance you see is individually held. That means that the Regiment Coins on your display are all yours to spend!
You’ve got several ways to earn Regiment Coins. The most basic one? Playing battles! There are four standard goals that you can achieve through regular gameplay every time you battle. These are your base earnings. You can earn up to 40 Regiment Coins per battle for these actions.
Important note: Multiplayer or event battles only—Co-Op battles do not count!
Base Earnings:
Play a Battle: 10 Coins
Win a Battle: 10 Coins
Play a Platoon Battle with a Regiment Member: 10 Coins
Win a Platoon Battle with a Regiment Member: 10 Coins
If you have Premium Account active, it’s even better. Premium Account provides a 50% bonus to your base earnings! So if, for example, your base earnings from a battle are 40 Regiment Coins, you'll receive a total of 60 Regiment Coins with Premium Account:
Base Earnings: 40 Coins
Premium Account Bonus: 20 Coins
In addition to your base and Premium Account earnings, you can earn Regiment Coins by completing Daily Missions. Daily Missions are personal, so you must complete them yourself. You can complete each one only once per day. And unlike base earnings goals, Daily Missions CAN be completed in Co-Op as well as Multiplayer and special event battles!
Daily Missions can be found in your Regiment Headquarters Tab.
One very important note about Regiment Coins:
Regiment Coins are season specific. At the end of each season, your Regiment Coins will expire. Make sure to spend your Regiment Coins before the season's end!
Regiment Coins also cannot be gifted or transferred to other players.
Regiments Store
So, where do you go to spend those hard-earned Regiment Coins? To the store, of course!
Head to the in-game Store and look for the “Regiments” tab in the secondary menu. Here you’ll see all the Regiments-exclusive content available for the current season, including Camos, Emblems, and even Premium tanks.
The content in the Regiments Store changes each season, so if you see something you like, don’t hesitate to grab it!
Please note: Items from the Regiments Store cannot be gifted, returned, or refunded.
Post-Battle Results Screen
After each battle, the Post-Battle Results Screen (or PBRS) will show some key information related to your Regiment experience.
On the Personal tab, the Regiment Coins you’ve received will be shown in the “Earnings” section along with the Silver and various kinds of XP you’ve earned.
If you select “Detailed Earnings,” you’ll be taken to a screen that shows your earnings from the match on two different tabs: “Currency” and “Experience.” Your Regiment Coins will be listed on the Currency tab.
Additionally, if you visit the battle scoreboard while you’re looking at the PBRS (and you’re at the rank of Recruitment Officer or higher), you’ll be able to select players from the scoreboard and invite them to your Regiment. It’s a great chance to recruit the best of the best!
In battle, you may be able to succeed on your own, but success is even better with allies at your side. Join or start a Regiment and get ready to secure victory!
