US Independence Day

Look inside : Nepalese Khukuri

What ?

I mean, don’t get me wrong the rewards are nice… but what does the Khukuri, a Nepalese weapon famously used by the Gurkhas in thr British army has to do with the Independence of the USA ?

There’s nothing less interesting than melee weapons in a World War II game.

It would perhaps make more sense to award the USA cavalry sword instead of this knife?

You used to give us two Stinger machine guns, but now the rewards have been drastically cut back—only a few melee weapons and pistols. Is that all we get for such an important event? Has the richness of events gone downhill along with the drop in daily active players?

As American as a Khukuri.

Just make the arts portraits, it would be better rewards

The Khukuri should have been kept for a unique Gurkhas squad, but now I guess we will never see them ingame.

It’s totally unrelated. I vaguely recall that for the last Independence Day event, there was either no event at all, or they handed out two American Stinger machine guns. Looking at it this way, the rewards this time have been drastically reduced. This Nepalese kukri is identical to the Soviet MVD scout knife, and back then that knife was just a free bonus that came with a 100-round Thompson.
Aren’t these rewards this time just a huge letdown?

maybe a squad?

dude

How they arranged the event thematically, no wonder why the most used Japanese medium tank or the most produced StuG variant went under premium squads….

Should have been the M3A1 APC. Why does the USA not have the M3A1?
