Early Access
Researchable Soviet cruisers Steam post imageSteam post image VIII Tallinn and Steam post imageSteam post image IX Riga are arriving in Early Access. To obtain them, you can exchange Soviet Tokens for bundles in the Armory that are opened in sequential order.
Soviet Tokens: a themed temporary resource that can be obtained from Soviet containers or random bundles.
Soviet containers: obtained by completing Directives or received in Daily Shipments.
Bundles that provide Early Access to Soviet cruisers can be obtained in the Armory in exchange for Soviet Tokens. There are a total of six bundles that are opened in sequential order. In these bundles, you'll find cruisers Steam post imageSteam post image V Mikoyan, Steam post image VIII Tallinn, and IX Riga, as well as the Soviet permanent camouflage for cruisers Tallinn, Riga, and X Petropavlovsk.
What are the new Soviet cruisers’ distinctive features?
One of the main features of the new sub-branch is their effective armor-piercing shells with good ballistic properties, high penetration, and a short fuse-arming delay time, the latter of which will significantly decrease the number of overpenetrations. Salvos fired from these ships are effective against both battleships and cruisers.
- An average reloading time and special accuracy settingsthe new ships have a larger dispersion ellipse at long distances in comparison to other cruisers.
When these ships are positioned wisely, they will demonstrate their decent ability to absorb hits thanks to the good armor protection they enjoy for their type.
As with most cruisers, you can choose between Hydroacoustic Search and Defensive AA Fire.
Cruisers of Tier IX and above have the Repair Party consumable at their disposal.
The combination of their accuracy settings and the Surveillance Radar consumable with a 12 km operating range makes the new cruisers most efficient in medium-range encounters.
Cruisers VIII Tallinn, IX Riga, and X Petropavlovsk will become available to research in Update 0.9.6.
Directives
The new game event tasks you with completing 42 missions spread across four Directives. The first Directive will become available with the release of Update 0.9.4, while those that follow will be unlocked on a weekly basis. Completing the event’s missions and Directives will bring you signals, expendable camouflage patterns, credits, and Soviet containers, as well as other rewards.
Reward for completing all Directives: the Soviet permanent camouflage for cruiser V Mikoyan. The Directives can be completed until Tue. 09 Jun. 07:00 CEST (UTC+2)
Detailed information on the Directives and Hall of Fame rewards can be found in the game client.
Soviet Сontainers
Players will be able to obtain Soviet containers from Daily Shipments (up to six containers) and by completing Directives (up to 54 containers).
Each Soviet container includes 5, 10, 15, 25, or 300 Soviet Tokens.
Once you've obtained all the available containers from Daily Shipments and for completing Directives, you're guaranteed to have collected enough Tokens to obtain cruiser V Mikoyan.
