@TheWarJaC @Crysantos Something I wondered. The shipbuilding part says 'The Starter Packs will only be available to purchase prior to the point in time when you complete four shipbuilding phases by finishing combat missions.  Once you've purchased both Starter Packs or completed four shipbuilding phases by finishing combat missions, you'll be able to purchase further phases individually for 1,950 doubloons each' 

So for example is it possible to complete 3 phases then purchase both starter packs? Meaning a jump to phase 17 or would purchasing either phase make the other unavailable? 

 

PS Call me a whale all you like, doesn't change the fact my Yamato is prettier than yours 

 

I just tested it (for science ) and was able to purchase both starter kits and so start at level 14.

I would like to purchase that 5k doubloon starter pack but my doubloons are still locked behind my unresolved support ticket for more than 2 weeks now. Will you finish the doubloon refunds for the boxes before the option to get the starter packs goes away, or is it some way of punishing players for asking for the refund?

@Crysantos @MrConway will be this year 50% 360 days of premium time discount, or you don't want to sell premium time any more?

You need the Strasbourg to complete the Final task of the first mission of Ships and Fates. But the strasbourg can only be obtained earliest after 20 days !!!

So you need to buy it. As the Ships and Fates missions ends after 29days !!!  Leaving you 9 days to complete the last stage of the Pursuit of Strasbourg in and doing the whole Ships and Fates !!!

 

This is wargaming at its best, Forcing you to buy a ship !!!

34 containers from tier x ships, just 1 viribus unitis (in terms of gift ships)... yey me...

[Psticide]

that is super lame to make me rush though a campaign in 7 days like that ... 

[pWnZoMg]

If you don't own Hizen don't even start the "Ships and fates" campaign?

[CrabCrusher]

There seems to be no information till when or what stage in the campaign these starter packs are available....so is this fixed by a date or a degree of progress and then, what is it actually? How can it be that it s not openly disclosed!!!??? There should be at least a legal disclaimer regarding those starter packs.

Thank you very much! And I stand corrected, been through the article twice and couldn t find it aka my bad.... but where do you actually see it in game, when I click on starter pack, it just says that I can either buy 4 or 10 phases?

Can t even find it, it says "watch the shipbuilding process" or "open the list of phases" and if I click on starter packs, there s no info either.... I so hate this new, reworked campaign and mission layout

@MrConway  @Crysantos Don 't understand the reasoning behind locking the Ships and Fates mission behind the strasbourg ?  You want us to play the game right ? But if we buy the Strasbourg to have any chance of completing the  Ships and Fates mission then we won't do the Strasbroug mission, why would we as we have the strasbourg ?? 

So what is the point then ? I want to do the missions just for fun. But like it is setup now you make it impossible to do then both. 

Increase the time of the Ships and Fates mission or take away the Strasbourg in the final task of stage 1.

+1 My memory is almost full form work and family stuff so this is appreciated. A lot going atm in WOWS, and as I\m a casual player, I dont fell like doing a whole lot of reading in my already sparse game time.

Last time we had the event I made sure I'd got any T10's I'd researched in Port (I don't play T10 I'm not into BBQ's) so I' sold em for funds, the contents of the containers was so garbage that this year I made sure any T7 I'd researched was in Port for the coal and the trickle of steel from my other ships will top up the coal. probably not the right thing to do but it suits me, I did once get a ship in a box but I'll not go there

I would imagine it's all about the money and worked out to perfection on the spread sheets

Since yesterday I've noticed these additional Daily Combat Missions

But I can't find any mention of them, and no indication for how long we'll continue to receive them.

 

Anyone know?

YEEY -_-

DAMN , that secon campain is such a scam !  you need strasburg do entef first one , and everyboy will get furataka , but rest is imposible , is such short time , you have just 7 days ... 1- to access to strasburg it will take 1 day , then finsl mission need 20k base xp 1--2 days , unlock T-22 some 9-10 games in co op , to unlock hawkins you need like 12 games in co op , to unlock visby you need 10 games , to unlock , all 3 ships 1-2 days ,to unlock kotovsky 12 games , to unlock ny you need 30 games , I could make it , because I have unlocked all those ships , even that will be hard grind , but fresh player , have no chace...

Not only that. Without Hizen you can't finish any section of the campaign. And to obtain Hizen within the timeframe of the campaign you have to buy it.

Dunno what the creator of the campaign took, but it's not good for your brain.

Sooo without whaling into this game is impossible to clear tasks... 

[Maris_Piper]

Well I've had a nice WG Christmas I didn't get screwed with Satan Crates I didn't buy any. I di not partake of anything involving Russian Number Generation, That's a Winner straight away.. IMO the Hizen is a Turd so No Starter Packs for that thing then, I looked at the Missions and how you need a ship to get the same ship or of course the Hizen and I thought No I'd sooner play something else so   Bought the bargain basement Strasbourg and thought  it, 

PS I've not seen the Poizen in game yet but then again not played much.
