Event rewards

The main reward of the event will be India's Pralay short-range ballistic missile equipped with advanced navigation systems. The high ballistic flight trajectory, significant durability of the missile, and the ability to launch two missiles in a salvo together provide ample opportunities to successfully hit a target, even against active air defenses. Additionally, the missile's short reload time allows it to overwhelm any ship's defenses. Its small area-of-effect damage can neutralize an enemy's missile and bomb salvos with precise timing, making it highly sought after in most engagements.

This missile system can be obtained by absolutely all players who have made it to the end of the Event Pass!

As the event progresses, players will gain access to the Type-30 JEAG (40mm) autocannon, the rare Snow Leopard flag, the epic avatar ‘Henrik Lindström’, and the rare title ‘Frostbitten’.

Triumph of Power Bundle

Meet the new impenetrable battleship, the USS Montana (BB-67)!

The final class of battleships developed for the U.S. Navy. Designed as an evolution of the Iowa-class battleships, they featured reinforced armor and armament at the cost of reduced speed. The ship's design includes a modernization package, upgrading several systems and modules with modern equipment.

The ship's air defense is bolstered by the installation of two silo-type air defense systems and three slots, each accommodating two air defense turrets. The defense is further enhanced by six positions equipped with Bofors 40 L/60 MK 12 (40 mm) autocannons, which feature a modernized fire control system and automatically engage both aerial and surface targets. For long-range attacks, the ship is equipped with two CHAMP missiles, which can be swapped for any other anti-ship missile systems. Additionally, torpedo tubes are mounted along the sides of the deck to counter submarines. A helipad located at the stern provides the capability to deploy any type of helicopter for reconnaissance and strikes.

The classic artillery armament of the battleship remains a formidable asset in combat. The primary 16"/50 Mark 7 guns (caliber 406 mm), combined with the secondary 5"/54 Mark 16 guns (caliber 127 mm), remain the ship's most powerful weaponry, ensuring any enemy encountered will face a devastating blow.

  • You can purchase the USS Montana (BB-67) during the event.
  • The greater the progress of the Event Pass, the more favourable the purchase will be.
  • The maximum discount is 90%. You can get this battleship no more than once during the event.

Lost in the Ice Bundle

Feel the icy breath of winter with new customisation items - the legendary Northern Lights camouflage and the Polar Star flag.

Classified cargo

Crack open the classified cargo to get rare and epic items!

  • A promising, accurate German large-caliber railgun — EMRG Konig (180 mm).
  • Electromagnetic railgun developed by Turkish defence industry — Sahi-209 Block-II
  • China's newest supersonic strategic cruise missile DF-100
  • Flag Polar Star
  • Artcoins, boosters, authorisation keys and a drone battery

The grand prize of the draw is the FS Richelieu, a French fast battleship that has undergone an extensive modification package to make it capable of facing modern warships and new air threats. The two main 380mm calibre 380/45 Mle-M 1935 guns are located in the bow of the hull, giving her a number of advantages over other battleships in certain combat situations where it is not necessary to board the enemy and endanger the ship. The auxiliary 152/55 Mle-M 1930 calibre does not fail, allowing the enemy ship to be killed or seriously damaged while the main calibre is being reloaded. The ship's air defence is a tiered air defence suite with the ability to customise two interchangeable slots of four and two air defence points respectively. The superior long- and medium-range defences are complemented by a pre-installed Aster-30 Block 0 silo-launched missile air defence system and a four-unit upgraded French 100mm 100/45 Mle-M 1930 twin-gun shipboard automatic artillery system, which provides slow but powerful automatic fire against air and surface targets. In addition to the helicopter, there are anti-submarine missile and bomb systems, divided into two independent systems. All this makes it possible to create different combinations for different combat situations and not to worry about underwater threats.
