EVENT: Battle of Prokhorovka REAL/FINAL VERSION (Sunday 23 May 19:00 BST) - Tank Crew not necessary !

Post by Rotebrink » Tue May 18, 2021 6:34 pm

Hello again,

Thank you everyone who joined us at last Sunday's test. It was very successful and there's was lots of great feedback.

So fellas, this upcoming Sunday is the real deal. I'm hoping this time we can get the same number of people involved, if not even a few more. I would also like to state that YOU DO NOT NEED TANK CREW (not yelling!) to play this mission. There are two free tanks that come with the base game AND you can still multicrew with anyone who has TC!

These are the main changes that have been made since the test:

- The numbers have changed so red now has 4 platoons while blue only has 3, we have increased the tickets, and SU-122s have been added to red side
- The number and type of aircraft available has also changed so now there's one Stuka (limited ordinance) and one U-2 slot available, and some AI aircraft may be added
- AAA has been dumbed down and reduced

Here's the link to the sign-up sheet:

As part of the sign-up sheet I have included some info regarding comms organization and mission start process. If we can pick our platoon leaders and platoon commanders before the weekend that would be very nice. As stated above, commanders get 4 platoons on red side and 3 platoons on blue side to direct. Commanders need to decide where they want their platoons to spawn and what they want them to do.

And here is the link to Jackman's intro tutorial to tanking:

Thanks so much guys! More info will be available later in the week. Also would like to mention there's a lot of communication happening in the TC channel on Discord. Let me know if you have questions or more feedback from the test and I'll try to get back to you as soon as I can!

Who wants to be my Tank-Buddy?

Really, I can't stress enough that Multi Crew is the way to go.

I'm considering to jump into the Stuka, but only if nobody else wants to take it up for a spin.

If no one else has grabbed it yet, it's yours. :)

Thaine I'm not 100% sure if I'll make it on Sunday. IF you want you can be my replacement or we can switch places midway through the mission.
