■ 'Warrior' Event Overview

From May 12 (Tuesday) to June 1 (Monday), Tank Commanders will choose one of the iconic military leaders selected from centuries of history—GEORG VON FRUNDABURG, MENG TIAN, MARCUS CLAUDIUS MARCELLUS, or MINAMOTO NO YOSHIIE—and join their faction.

In this three-week community event, players will choose a champion to support each week and deploy, with weekly winners clashing in the final week for supremacy.

Players can earn 'Honor' by completing battles and challenges. The warrior of the faction that earns the most 'Honor' will advance in the 'Tournament', making every battle a step towards victory for their champion.

■ Four New Premium Vehicles Introduced

Four new premium vehicles will be available to participate in the battles. Each vehicle is beautifully designed, reflecting the style of its corresponding champion.

'Reiter' is a post-war era medium tank with thick armor and high penetration, dominating the battlefield as a heavily armored behemoth. It's a vehicle that controls the front lines and never retreats.

'Hatamoto' is an escalation era medium tank equipped with an ATGM launcher and a 105mm gun. Quiet and stealthy, it takes high ground from long range, dealing fierce damage from above.

Unleashed from the East, 'Ruishi' is a Tier VIII tank destroyer boasting extremely aggressive speed. Supported by rocket boosters and high penetration, it's a dangerous predator that moves quickly and delivers powerful blows.

'Praetor' is a fast Tier IX heavy tank, protected by thick armor and highly adaptable in combat. In addition to overwhelming damage, its 10-degree gun depression allows for new firing angles in battle, making it a formidable presence.

■ New Ultimate 2D Commanders and 3D Commanders

For the first time in 'World of Tanks Modern Armor', players can acquire powerful Ultimate 2D Commanders corresponding to each of the four warriors, as well as new 3D Commanders.

Ultimate 2D Commanders have all nine skill slots fully unlocked. These commanders can be obtained from 'Warrior War Chests', while standard versions can be acquired through community challenges.

Additionally, the 'Warrior' event will feature a newly fully rendered 3D Commander, the Germanic Knight Commander 'Ulrich der Wieseljäger'.

■ 'Letters of Thanks' Reappear as 'War Seals'

In this event, 'Letters of Thanks' will reappear as 'War Seals'. Available online, players can send rewards and encouragement to their allies.
