Europe: November 10, 13:00 (CET) to November 18, 13:00 (CET)
North America: November 10, 6:00 (PT) / 9:00 (ET) to November 18, 6:00 (PT) / 9:00 (ET)
APAC: November 10, 14:00 (UTC+8) to November 18, 14:00 (UTC+8)
Six hardened tank destroyers featuring an impressive amount of HP are now available for research! The new branch is proudly headed by the Controcarro 3 Minotauro, an assault vehicle with a 130-mm gun. Its impeccable Moderno Legendary camouflage expertly combines state-of-the-art elements with a tribute to a myth.
Starting from Tier VII, the new tank destroyers are equipped with an autoreloading system. At the same time, unlike Italian medium tanks, shell reload time is configured in a special way for the new TDs. The first shot of a fully loaded magazine autoreloads faster than the others. If you fire only that first shot, you can cause maximum damage per minute (which will be much higher than specified in the characteristics). It should be noted that autoreloading the first shell into an empty magazine can take more than 20 seconds. So it makes sense to unleash the entire magazine only in case of emergency, when the enemy will be destroyed for sure or when your allies can cover you.
Matchmaker
Now, there will be two queues for entering a battle. The common one is for medium or high skilled commanders. The second one is for those with low battle efficiency. After training and gaining some combat experience, players from the second group will be able to return to the common queue.
Legendary Camouflage
Owners of the following four tanks will soon receive offers to buy new Legendary camos: the fantastic Ammoel for the T57 Heavy, the gothic Darkwing for the WT auf Pz. IV, the realistic Ghost for the KV-1, and the even more realistic Jäger for the Kampfpanzer 50 t.
The cosmic LunarX for the Rover, the mighty Skvělý for the Škoda T 45, the shining Excalibur for the GSOR 1008, the forest Leshy for the Object 274a, and the dependable Baron for the Tiger I became available in the camo selection menu.
Improvements and Fixed Bugs
The following tanks, along with their Legendary camos, were updated to the new graphics quality: T110Е5 (Rebel camo), M48 Patton (Pit Bull and Beast camos), Maus (Steel Predator and Legionary camos), and WT auf Pz. IV (with the new Darkwing camo).
For user convenience, when you purchase an equipment slot, the cursor now automatically moves to the next one.
The mechanism of purchasing and opening containers was simplified. Now, you can purchase several identical items at once or open containers one after another without leaving the current screen.
To improve the audio experience, the sound volume of various in-battle effects was balanced. In addition, the music and effects volume settings were set to 100% by default.
Performance counters are now also displayed in the Garage, near the tank pedestal.
Various screens, descriptions, and notifications were improved.
General bugs and client crashes were fixed.

Shell Display
Shell icons are now much easier to distinguish! While in battle, you can immediately see what ammo type is selected. The usual color scheme, however, hasn't changed. So it won't take you long to get the hang of it. Premium shells received gold tips for the sake of avoiding any accidental squandering!
Improvements and Fixed Bugs
The following tanks, along with their Legendary camos, were updated to the new graphics quality: the Dracula and Two-faced, the Helsing and Raven, as well as the Lycan and Knight.
If one player destroys a tank that was previously damaged more than 50% by another player, both players will receive a notification with the name of the player who assisted. Earlier it used to appear when a tank was previously damaged more than 51% by another player.
The bug, where the reticle was automatically shifted to an enemy tank that just got spotted, was fixed.
Various screens, descriptions, and notifications were improved.
General bugs and client crashes were fixed.
Operation Call of the Folio
Hunting for treasures and ancient artifacts is a profitable business, but only for those with nerves of steel. Lost temples, sandstorms, exotic diseases, wild animals... But the legendary Hunter's Moon Folio is worth the risk! The other rewards are impressive as well — gold, boosters, camos, avatars, and piles of resources. There are rumors that something dark and scary is lurking on the path to the Folio… Add the Shadowhunter to your collection, and be well-equipped to face any supernatural threat!
