Update version 1.6 is released for the public test. The current version will bring a lot of new things to the game, including a branch of high-level British light tanks. Many have been reviewed personal combat missions, whose changes should now make it easier to execute. For connoisseurs of the appearance of technology were added new decals and other elements, the mechanics of their application has changed. One of the most important points - disable damage to allies, team members can no longer be destroyed by shooting or ramming. Further detailed information about all innovations.
High Tier British Light Tanks
The long-awaited replenishment of vehicles in the British research branch! In patch 1.6, four fast and elusive British level 7-10 LTs enter the battle arena.
One of the features of high-tier light tanks in the UK will be a very low silhouette, even lower than that of the French LT branch. Thus, they will be almost the smallest in the game, slightly higher than the French ELC Even 90. It will be difficult to light them, and even more difficult to hit in motion.
Level 7 - GSR 3301 Setter
Level 8 - LHMTV
Level 9 - GSOR3301 AVR FS
Level 10 - Manticore
Distinctive features of British light tanks:
- Excellent review and excellent disguise. These LTs will become masters of ambush and passive exposure. The "British" will see you, and you will see them - not a fact, especially if they have good fire support.
- Great dynamics. The new LTs quickly accelerate to their maximum speed and maintain it well, so depending on the situation in the battle, they will be able to play the role of an active “firefly”. A more effective application of dynamics would be to occupy key positions for passive illumination.
- High firepower. The gun of the "English gentlemen" has a high one-time damage. In this indicator, they are not inferior to their “classmates”, but taking into account other characteristics, the “British” will become very dangerous enemies. The main drawback is the poor stabilization of the gun on the move, so you won’t be able to shoot accurately on the move. A small amount of ammunition is unacceptable to spend on misses, so it's better to stop first and reduce yourself to the enemy.
Taking into account all these factors, we can say that British LTs will become excellent scouts. The combination of good vision, excellent camouflage, and a low profile is a rare combination in the game. These tanks are suitable for lovers of both active light and passive light. At the same time, due to the gun, it will be possible to shoot good damage (subject to successful hits, since the ammunition load is limited).
With the exception of the tier 10 Manticore tank, which was slightly modified, the rest of the vehicles are completely historical. In addition, they all received a memorable look, by which it will be easy to recognize them in battle.
Changing the conditions of LBZ (personal combat missions)
The LBZ conditions are being adjusted. We have now carefully analyzed the statistical data in the conditions of the 3rd operation of the campaign "Second front", the main reward for which - Object 279 (R). In addition, the suggestions and feedback from the players regarding the personal combat missions of this operation were taken into account.

Operation ChimeraChanging the appearance of vehicles
Each player can give a unique and unusual look to their vehicles in the Garage thanks to decals. The interface for applying them required some tweaks, so it has been updated. Now there is an opportunity:
- moving the decal in order to evaluate how it will look in another place;
- you can move or remove the decal with a couple of mouse clicks.
Additions for appearance
Tips have been added to the Hangar interface with information about which section the decal can be taken from and for which part of the tank it is available for application. In addition, multidimensional decals have been introduced into the game. But with the proviso that they are allowed to be applied only to all vehicles of level 10 and to premium vehicles of level 8. For each tank there will be an individual point for application. Added new types of fonts for tactical numbers.
Full information about styles is available inside the game. It is enough to apply a style and click the information key, which will display all the details.
Disable damage to allies
Previously, damage to members of your team has already been disabled in the "Front Line" mode and the new season of Ranked Battles. Now in patch 1.6, it has come to all modes of random battles: standard and oncoming battles, assault and general battle.
In order not to distract from the concentration on the game and to reduce the impact of unsportsmanlike behavior of some users on the gameplay, the developers turned off "friendly fire"and destruction of allies by ramming or shooting. There is only art left, which can stun its own, but for this it will be charged a penalty to the experience gained after the battle.
