Update 0.11.4 will see the launch of Ranked Battles Season 7.
Starts: Thu. 19 May 10:00 CEST (UTC+2) Ends: Thu. 14 Jul. 01:00 CEST (UTC+2) Format
This season, all the leagues involve Tier VIII and IX ships fighting in a 6 vs. 6 format. The rules for keeping a Star differ between the leagues:
In the Bronze League, players who take the first two places by XP earned keep their Stars in a lost battle. In the Silver League, only the top XP earner keeps their Star in a lost battle. In the Gold League, players do not keep their Stars in a lost battle. These changes emphasize the different levels of competitiveness in each league.
We have revised the number of Stars required to reach Rank 1. The purpose of this is to make sure that the average number of battles required to reach Rank 1 does not change.

This event repeats every year forever
In a relatively rare event, a fast troopship convoy was intercepted in the Atlantic by long range FW-200 bombers and both troopships were sunk. Subsequent attack on the next day damaged the last surviving ship of the convoy transporting survivors to Casablanca, but the attacking planes were chased away eventually in an unusual aerial duel by Catalina patrol planes.
While loss of life was not as serious as it could have been, the sinking of troopships caused a significant delay in building and deployment of a West African division to Burma.

In another pitched battle in the Kula Gulf, another edition of "Tokio Express" - 4 transport destroyers escorted by 5 destroyers and a light cruiser - was intercepted by Allied light cruisers. Same as in the previous battle, however, the Japanese ships were shown to be a dangerous opponent. While outnumbered, outgunned and losing the light cruiser Jintsu, their torpedoes found the nmark, heavily damaging all three cruisers and sinking destroyer USS Gwin - while at the same time providing enough distraction for the transport group to land the 1,200 men at Vila.
