REGIMENTS STORE: SEASON ITEM REFRESH

         

With the Regiments system, the start of every new season will reset your personal Regiments Coin balance—and also bring a new selection of items to the Regiments section of the in-game store.

That means that if you’re in a Regiment, you can start earning coins to get exclusive new Camos, Emblems, and this season’s Regiments tank: the French Tier V M10 RBFM Tank Destroyer!

See the full list of Regiments Store items here.

GODS OF THUNDER WAR CHESTS

         

Usually the phrase “when it rains, it pours” has a negative meaning. But when it’s talking about a new season of World of Tanks Modern Armor, it just means we’re pouring on the new and updated content!

Case in point: War Chests for the Gods of Thunder season are now also available, with refreshed drops that include Premium tanks like the French Tier VIII ERAC 105 Proto Light Tank and the CATTB “Thumper” Détente Era (Era 3) Western Alliance Heavy Tank.

Get the full drop lists in this article.

CHALLENGES AND EVENTS

New and the Old

         

And speaking of Gods of Thunder War Chests…

This Challenge works a little differently than our usual Challenges: the version you’ll see depends on the number of Multiplayer battles played on your account.

  • If you have 200 or fewer Multiplayer battles played on your account when you first log in this week, you’ll get First Experience.
  • If you have more than 200 Multiplayer battles played on your account when you first you log in this week, you’ll get Top of the Line.

First Experience is geared toward newer players finding their battlefield groove, while Top of the Line is designed for battle-tested tankers eager to prove their skills. No matter which one you receive, you’ve got two of the new season’s War Chests waiting for you!
