I got excited over nothing when I saw this word in the notification.
Another pointless slop event that once again forgot to give every involved nation representation.

Vienna - nice
ISU-152 - nice
Hungary - nice

Too bad none of that is in the game, the event is a skippable meh

I will take it because any event is better than no event, but could we have something that is not soviet centric ?

The few last few mini event were mostly about soviet stuff.

Is there really only one faction in this game…?

It seems the Soviets were fighting… No one, as we’re looking at yet another one-sided event…

Come on, there are other nations than the USSR in the game, stop giving only USSR rewards in every mini event. Did you know that in a battle there are two sides??? Give the player an option to choose between 2 different reward options, depending on which nations are fighting, this should be common sense.

LaGG-3-34? MG-45? Oh! They’re back in the shop! Gotta buy ’em! I forgot who on the forums kept asking when the MG-45 would return, but it’s finally here! They must be really happy.

LaGG-3-34! Damn, that’s an old classic! I’m collecting this one.
@Decаrd
As for the event—why another reskinned gun? Why not something actually good? The RedPPS isn’t even the Stalingrad version. The small events are just lazy, the rewards are tiny and boring, it’s annoying. Where’s the MKB42/35 or the Thompson?

This is what they’re putting their “innovation” into?

According to enlisted, soviets fought soviets and only soviet weaponry existed on both sides of the war…

Wait, 5000? Why is it so expensive? They don’t even have a discount for the rerun?
Damn, the M3A1 wasn’t this pricey when it came back!
Are they still using the old map version prices?
Seriously, it’s way too expensive.

Can I have the specifications of the PPSh-41 “Award”

well, cause artifical scarsity.

when such squads were introduced, they weren’t this pricey ( 1000 / 2000 EG less )

and when the merge released, due to some being redudant and others for " value " were removed from the store and occasionally return in the store with an increased price every couple of years.

welcome to modern gaming.

anyway.
yeah a bit of a underwhelming event.

but… it’s free i suppose.

Damn, they’re sitting on all these powerful guns but instead they’re wasting effort coding new reskinned ones. Do they really enjoy annoying players this much?

Is it the buffed version of PPS-42 red with extra damage?

And swords.

Some people are tired of them, I don’t mind having more.

Too bad it’s just cosmetic, if it had a slight damage increase like the PPS(Red) it would have made sense

I think swords were rewards about this time around last year in an event, though yeah, swords for all factions again would be welcome.
