HELL YES! I do want the "whooper" on the Gallant though!

It wasn't. Duration is identical for both campaigns (Spee <-> York). With the difference that the York-campaign is more difficult/harsher/grindier than the Spee-campaign, but that the New Year Raid is way easier than the Santa Convoy of 2016 (less steps to be taken, and easier requirements). All in all it balances eachother out.

Supertest bias! Rigged! Haxxxx!!!! (nice tally of rewards btw)

Some sort of “loyalty-program” would be a very nice addition and gesture to those who stick with the game. There is already the “once in a year” supercontainer-gifting for each T10 you own, and the flags per 1000 battles you’ve played. But that pales in comparison with these rewards for being inactive. The idea to (re)lure players back in the game is good, but the balance is skewed compared to what loyal players get (as in: truly getting, thus without any additional effort).

Received 2 small containers from a contest (thx Strefs), and then the 1 container from the EU Bonus code 50x Zulu Hotel 50x Zulu 50x Zulu Zulu Hotel is always useful, but Zulu... I'm sitting at 144M credits, I think I was already reasonably well stuffed!

Mods. That's the only way.

With "mehbote" I meant "Premium Ship that isn't pulled from sale because OP reasons"... I've encountered enough Gallants to know that I must treat them with the utmost respect.

I feel sorry for those who don't have a lot of time to devote to this, or don't own T5+ German or British ships. All to be done with T5+ ships, in PVP only (so ranked or random) Part 1: 5* needed for Final Task of part 1 (all are T5+) All need to be done in Random or Ranked battles. 1* tasks:Spot 1 German BB in a UK Cruiser, Hit Cruisers 50x w/any armament in BB's 2* tasks: Hit BB's 250x w/any armament in cruisers, Cause 75k dmg to BB's in cruisers 3* task: Win and survive a battle where you did 20k dmg to cruisers with the Duke of York. Final Task: 25k xp after modifiers. Part 2: 5* for final task of part 2 1* tasks:250k potential dmg, survive, and win in a cruiser, Incap or destroy 25 modules 2* Tasks: 100k dmg to German ships, Hit BB's 200x in a cruiser. 3* task: 500k potential dmg, survive, win in DoY Final task: 30k xp after modifiers Part 3: 5* for final task of part 3 1* tasks: 1st to spot 1 UK ship in a German ship, 1st to spot 1 German ship in a UK ship 2* tasks: 1st to spot 12 enemy BB's, 50k dmg to BB's in a single battle 3* task: Get 5 Citadel hits in the DoY Final task: 35k xp after modifiers. Part 4: 6* for final task of part 4 1* tasks: 150k dmg to BB's in a BB, Incap or destroy 3 main batteries with BB's 2* tasks: Earn 1 Dreadnought, Earn 1 High Caliber 3* task: 50k dmg to BB's in DoY Final task: 40k xp after modifiers Part 5: 6* for final task of part 5 1* tasks: Hit enemy ships with torps 11x in UK DD's or Cruisers. Destroy 10 BB's 2* tasks: 75k xp after modifiers, 90k dmg with torps in DD's or Cruisers in a single battle 3* task: 1 Dev Strike in DoY Final Task: 45k xp after modifiers The requirements for the Graf Spee were incremental amounts of BXP and XP after modifiers, to be done in PvP or PvE, with any ship that was T5+.

I see plenty of Gallants dropping from crates... That's the one meh-bote I really want... No luck for me, so I'll have to buy it, which means no 10 pt captain :( Still got Mutsu out of the free container, so that's good (it's a surprisingly fun ship!)

Excellent choice!

Not a boat I'd normally pick (I do play mainly BB's, but I haven't gone up the IJN line). Still: free stuff is free stuff!

I wonder what the "Special Container" will bring!

50x ESCL 1x Mutsu + 10pt captain Can't complain!

Bought 5 of the most expensive ones: 2x 15x Type 59 2x 30x Hydra 1x 30x Ourobouros Then the 2 free containers you can get 1x 50x ESCL 1x Mutsu + 10pt commander

On the fence about the Gallant (ever since it came out)... Maybe willing to go for the 5x largest packs... Then again, it's gambling, and I don't like that.

I understand that it's a T7 BB, and the ties with the actual battle of the North Cape, but I found the requirements for last year with the Graf Spee (incremental amounts of XP and Base XP) more enjoyable, and more in the line with the holiday schedule/spirit/plans. There indeed has to be an incentive to buy the DOY, but I think these requirements are a bit over-doing it as "bully"-incentive. And it excludes players who don't have high-tier ships (90k torpedo-damage per battle at T10 is no issue, but at T5...), nor does it offer a true incentive to use premium time (not as much as the Graf Spee missions did). Also surprised to see there is no mission (or partial mission) to the other T7 ship that it's all about: the Scharnhorst itself. Missed opportunity there.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they're impossible or very RNG to do, but I'm saying that they are more specific as last year, which meant "play the game and accumulate XP", without any further strings attached to it. The "New Year Raid" missions seem easier though. Surprised to see there is no mission (or partial mission) tied to the Scharnhorst itself.

Oh, waauw. The judges compliments! Thanks for the opportunity and the effort Strefs, and a prosperous 2018 to all of you!

Even better, it is the Nürnberg, after it's been ceded by the Soviets at the end of WW2. It's a C-hull Nürnberg with half of the torpedoes removed, and the AA-suite beefed (in the midrange department, at the expense of the short-range). And a better rudder shift. Doesn't get the Murmansk-treatment, so seems to get the same " 150 mm Spr.Gr. L/4.4 Kz." HE grenades that the Germans do get.

Maybe to entice people to spend money converting FXP to get her?

I think it's fairly safe to assume the T61 will arrive this week (Friday).

?? are numbers from 0 to 9... It's WG-EU, so think leetspeek. It gives something in-game. Beware though, as you only get 10 chances to fill something in, so pick wisely.

looks nice, works fluent... Don't really see the added benefits of the "reaction-smiley's", nor for the shaky background picture.
