Get the T86 in the Normandy 44 Event!
[/quote]
In 1944, a prototype of the M18 was converted into a special amphibious variant in the United States. The hull and turret were modified to provide amphibious capabilities, with the size of the vehicle increasing significantly and the armor being reduced. What came from this was the T86, which retained good mobility and firepower. This conversion remained at testing only, but the experience gained from it was further used in attempts to create an amphibious fire support vehicle.

Each stage can be obtained for 35,000 mission points, where every new stage obtained will give you a new reward. [quote]Please note: After finishing a stage, you need to collect the reward manually.

The number of mission points to complete a stage depends on the game mode and the maximum Rank of the vehicle that you use in battle. Theres a multiplier for earning mission points, which is shown in the task description in-game. You can also earn mission points by using event vehicles that are Rank I and II. Event vehicles that can be used have the name of the event that they were obtainable in on their stat card. [quote]

Unfinished stages can be purchased for Golden Eagles, but if youre significantly close to completing a stage, its price will now be significantly reduced. Lets say you have earned 85% of the required mission points to complete a stage, then the price of purchasing this stage will be halved. If youre near the finish line for a stage and are at 95% progress, then the price will be reduced by five times. For example, if youve scored 30,000 mission points, then the price for unlocking this stage will be 349 Golden Eagles. If youve scored 33,500 mission points, then youll only need to pay 139 Golden Eagles. Remember to keep this in mind if you cannot complete a stage on time!
When you complete 6 stages, youll receive a non-tradable coupon for the T86, where using it will immediately activate the vehicle onto your account. If you dont want the vehicle and would like to sell the coupon on the Market, youll need the Upgrade for coupon item. [quote]The Upgrade for coupon item can be earned in parallel with the stages throughout the event from June 5th (11:00 GMT) until June 17th (11:00 GMT) for 500,000 mission points.[/quote] After receiving the Upgrade for coupon item, you can convert a non-tradable coupon for the vehicle into a tradable one and sell it on the Market. The tradable coupon can be sold after 6 days from the moment its created. The Upgrade for coupon item is valid until June 20th (11:00 GMT). Until this time, you can use it or exchange it for War Bonds. Afterwards, itll disappear from your inventory. [quote]To make a tradable coupon, select the Coupon T86 (USA) in your inventory and click the Modify button.[/quote] You can track the progress of completing stages and receiving the Upgrade for coupon by clicking on your Nickname > Achievements > Normandy 44. If you dont manage to complete a stage on time or would like to purchase a stage, until June 20th from the Achievements window, you can purchase each stage with Golden Eagles which will give you the corresponding rewards.

War Thunder is a free-to-play, cross-platform MMO combat game for Windows, Linux, Mac and PlayStation®4 dedicated to military vehicles used in and around World War II and the Korean War. In War Thunder, you can take part in major battles on land, in the air, and at sea, fighting with real players from all over the world in a continuously developing environment.
War Thunder already offers a highly detailed experience in military aviation and ground forces combat, giving players access to a Guinness World Record breaking number of aircraft, as well as an abundance of tanks and other combat vehicles - and the number is constantly rising.
You can feel the unmatched intensity of aerial dogfights in a fighter, the decisive power of commanding a heavy strategic bomber or the heat of battle in a ground attacker, delivering precision strikes against your enemies. Alternatively, you can join the spearhead of armoured vehicles, fighting for dominance over the battlefield on the ground: Man a heavy tank with impressive armour and firepower, use the maneuverability of a medium or light tank to your advantage, or support your team by screening the skies with your anti aircraft vehicle - the choice is yours!
In the future, the game will also allow players to ‘set sail’ by commanding a variety of warships in the fight over the control of the world’s oceans, giving the game a truly epic scale.
Master your vehicles through both upgrades and personal experience in an environment that is constantly expanding and rewarding the personal skill of the player. Organise your efforts in one of the countless player squadrons and become an ace pilot or tanker - or both! Our thriving and welcoming community of millions of players is also actively participating in the game’s ongoing development, offering custom content through War Thunder Live, such as skins, missions and even vehicles.
War Thunder has something for everyone. Play cooperative games with your friends on Windows PC, Linux, Mac or PlayStation 4 against AI, or squad up for a PvP battle in a difficulty setting matching your play style, ranging from Arcade to Simulator using Mouse and Keyboard, Gamepad or Joystick.
