Commanders!

The final stage of the account transfer will start today! This campaign has been designed specifically for players in CIS realm in order to give them an opportunity to move their accounts to the EU realm and continue playing World of Warships on the Steam. All the other regions remain without any changes (e.g. in terms of this campaign you cannot transfer your account from NA to EU, or from ASIA to NA etc.).

Starting today, the following will happen:

1. CIS server will be no longer available on Steam
   
2. When you try to log in to your CIS account, you will be offered the option to transfer your account data to the EU server* and continue playing via Steam
   
3. You will not be able to use your CIS account on Steam until you decide for the transfer to the EU server

*Check the additional information by clicking on this link.

The account transfer allows the player to move their account data from one server to another while retaining all vessels, purchases, resources, statistics etc. After the transfer, the original account on the CIS server will be blocked and then deleted in 59 days. During this time period, every transferred player has a one-time opportunity to change their decision.

The transfer procedure is available for all players that have an account on the CIS realm.


Let’s go through the process of moving your account to the EU server:

1. Find World of Warships in your library, update the game to the latest version and press “Play”
   
2. You will see a screen prompt informing you that you cannot use your CIS account anymore and you need to make a decision about the transfer
   
3. Click on the big button “Transfer Account”
   
4. The system will then check your account data:
   
   • If you have not completed the registration on your account (you don't have an email and password bound to your account), you will be offered to complete the registration in Account Management. This is required to ensure that the transfer process goes correctly, and you have access to your transferred account on the EU server after the procedure.
     
   • If you have completed the registration, you will proceed to the next stage.
5. The system will then check your account for any conflicts. At this stage, we have three possible options:
   
   • You already have an EU account registered using the same Steam account. Since you cannot have two accounts on the same server bound to the same Steam ID, you will be offered to unbind your existing EU account from your Steam ID via Account Management and try again.
     
   • You already have an EU account registered using the same email as your CIS account. In this case the system will ask you for a new email and password for your transferred account.
     
   • You do not have any conflict and you proceed to the next stage
6. After you’ve settled any possible conflicts, the account transfer process will start. Usually, it processes all the data in just a few minutes, but in rare cases it can take up to a couple of hours, so don’t worry if it lasts longer than you expected.
   
7. As soon as the procedure is finished, you will get a message that the transfer has been completed, and you can immediately log in to your account on the EU server and play the game!

Welcome to the EU-server! Here is more info that helps you to adapt faster.

Please note that if your store settings in Steam account are selected as Russia or Belarus, then in case you uninstall World of Warships from your library, you will not be able to install the game on Steam again.

Halloween is at our doorstep, and that can only mean one thing—the Forces of Darkness are preparing to slink out from the shadows and drench the world in fear! You are the only one that can stand in their way!

Celebrate Halloween this year by getting involved in the following activities:

• Operations Saving Transylvania and Sunray in the Darkness.
  
• The Twilight Battle temporary battle type (you may remember this from Halloween 2018!). Twilight descends upon us 2 weeks after the release of Update 0.11.9.

In this article, we're going to take a closer look at the Operations. You can expect more details about the Twilight Battle to come in a separate dedicated article.

Operation Saving Transylvania will be available as Operation of the Week in the first week of the update; Sunray in the Darkness—in the second week. Players will also have an opportunity to team up with their friends in a Division and fight evil throughout the entirety of Update 0.11.9! Both Operations will be available at the normal difficulty level only.

During Update 0.11.9, the standard Operations are available only for players in Divisions. With the release of Update 0.11.10, Random Operations will become available again.

In the game client, Operations of the Week will be displayed as Active Operations.
The main task in this Operation is to escort a ship called Transylvania on her winding route to safe harbor. On the way, you must protect her from attacking catapults and Zikasa ships possessed by the Darkness. At the end of the route, players will face the final boss—the menacing battleship Rasputin.

For Operation Saving Transylvania, players can look forward to helming the following special ships manned by Commanders with 21 skill points:

• Destroyer III Blade with Commander Abraham V. Hellsinger
  
• Battleship III Jackal with Commander Henry J. Hide
  
• Cruiser III Igor with Commander Victor F. Einstein

Halloween Commanders earn Elite Commander XP, which can be spent on training Commanders of the in-game nations.

[expand style=more] [/expand]
Escort and protect Transylvania during her escape through the Portal.

• Transylvania must not lose 50% or more of her HP during the voyage.
  
• Destroy at least 16 Zikasa ships.
  
• Neutralize all catapults on the map.
  
• Transylvania must not stop until reaching the end of the route. To ensure that this condition is completed, at least one player should always remain near the ship.
  
• Sink battleship Rasputin.

Each secondary task fulfilled increases the reward for completing the primary task.

Transylvania and her saviors have returned to their home waters of the Silver Spear Archipelago, but the Forces of Darkness are coming after them by breaking through the Portal. Your task is to hold the undead off!

Security towers will help you in battle and try to seal the Portal. You need to protect the towers from enemy ships. Along with monsters, the Filth—a dense fog—is leaking through the Portal and endangering life itself. Be careful: while in the Filth, your ship takes damage each second. The amount of damage you receive depends on your ship type. Besides this, visibility and ship detectability decrease significantly in the Filth. At the same time, the Filth benefits your boss enemies—battleship Rasputin and aircraft carrier The Great Gorgon—by restoring their hit points and reducing the amount of damage they take.

For Operation Sunray in the Darkness, we'll provide players with the following ships manned by Commanders with 21 skill points:

• Destroyer X Urashima with Commander Mina Hurray
  
• Cruiser X Svyatozar with Commander Ivan K. Ulibin
  
• Battleship X Magnu-S with Commander Klaus V. Teslau

Halloween Commanders earn Elite Commander XP, which can be spent on training Commanders of the in-game nations.

[expand style=more] [/expand]
Protect the towers until they seal the ominous Portal to another dimension.

• Successfully defend at least two towers.
  
• Sink battleship Rasputin.
  
• Sink aircraft carrier The Great Gorgon.
  
• Destroy 30 enemy ships in the Filth.
  
• Successfully defend Transylvania.

Each secondary task fulfilled increases the reward for completing the primary task.

[expand style=more] [/expand]

Please note that you can only play special ships in Operations!

With the release of Update 0.11.10, all special ships will be removed from your account. Once the event is over, any XP earned playing the special ships will be transferred to Tier I cruiser I Orlan.

Throughout Update 0.11.9, you’ll have access to a special chain of combat missions that will be updated weekly. By earning Base XP in Operations, you’ll receive expendable economic bonuses and Jack-o’-Lantern containers.

All details are available in the game client.

Please note that the servers will be temporarily unavailable due to the release of an update. The schedule is available below.

Maintenance times are tentative and subject to change. Please accept our apologies for any inconveniences.
The new update will go live some time after it's been downloaded because the client and server sides are updated separately. While the client begins to update immediately, it takes time for the servers to be updated across all regions.

If there are problems with downloading or launching the update—please perform files integrity check.

Subtitles can be enabled in the video player separately.

Commanders!

Some of the players who acquired the American Freedom DLC, among other items, should have received a Dunkerque on their account. But due to a technical error, players were incorrectly credited with the regular version of this ship or compensation in doubloons if they already have her. The excess items have already been withdrawn from the accounts of the affected players. We have fixed the issue by providing 1 week rental of Dunkerque, as well as 1 Steam container for the inconvenience caused.


Thank you for your understanding.

Update 0.11.8 sees four Brawls unleashed in different formats. Round 4 will be held in a 12 vs. 12 format playing Tier VIII destroyers.

Brawls are characterized by short seasons and unusual team formats. The clashes are fast and dynamic.

---

Up to 10,000 Coal, 2,250,000 Credits, 80,000 Elite Commander XP, 56 combat signals, and 16 expendable economic bonuses.

---

You can take part in the Brawl only during the time period specific to your server.

Format: 12 vs. 12 playing Tier VIII destroyers
Big Race, Polar, Islands, Loop, Warrior's Path, and Trident. Battles on all maps are fought in the Domination mode.

As the name suggests, the Recruiting Station is World of Warships’ referral program, and it’s actually much simpler to take advantage of than you might think. In essence, what happens is that a player sends invitations to people who they think would enjoy World of Warships. The inviting player receives rewards when the people they invite accept their invitations and play the game.

---

The Recruiting Station revolves around the relationship between the Recruiter and their Recruits.

• A Recruiter can be any player with at least 15 battles fought on their account
  
• A Recruit (a.k.a. Shipmate) is a person who either:
  
  
  • Doesn’t have a World of Warships account
    
  • Has fewer than 15 battles on record
    
  • Has an account but hasn’t played in 90+ days

If you fit the criterion to be a Recruiter and you know someone who fits the criteria to be a Recruit, then just send them an invitation through the Recruiting Station interface—either on our website or from your in-game Port screen.

Recruiting Station

You can send as many invitations as you want to as many people as you want—there’s no downside.

---

Once somebody accepts one of your invitations, they become tied to your account as your Recruit. What does that mean for you?

• For every single battle your Recruit fights alone, 10 Community Tokens will be credited to your account, up to a limit of 1,500 Community tokens per week.
  
• For every single battle you fight in a Division with one or two of your Recruits, 18 or 22 Community Tokens will be credited to your Account, respectively, plus bonus amounts if these battles end in victory.

• The first time your Recruit fights a battle playing a Tier VI ship, 3 days of Warships Premium account will be credited to your account.

• You will receive 10% of the total value of every purchase made by your Recruits in the Premium Shop in the form of Doubloons.

As you can see, you can pick your own pace. You can actively support your Shipmates in progressing faster and get higher rewards, or you can just send the invite, sit back, and reap the regular Recruit battle rewards without having to lift a finger. The choice is yours!

---

So, you’ve recruited an entire gang of Shipmates and you’re swimming in Community Tokens. What now?

Community Tokens are first and foremost an Armory currency.

Head to the Naval Community tab in the Armory interface and take your pick—from signal flags and economic bonuses to Premium ship containers, special Commanders, and Supercontainers.



But Community Tokens are not just any Armory currency.

They have a unique property that allows you to spend them in the REWARDS section of the Recruiting Station interface. There, you can exchange Community Tokens for special bundles of two of each type of Recruiting Station container at a discount. What’s special about these bundles is that while one of the containers goes to your account, the second goes to the Recruit of your choice. It offers a welcome chance for them to obtain one of the valuable rewards inside these containers, including Premium ships.

---

The Recruiter isn’t the only one who benefits from this special relationship. So, what do Recruits get?

Fight one battle in any mode, except for battles in the Training Room

• II Emden with the National camouflage, a Port slot, and Commander with 9 skill points
  
• 7 days of Warships Premium Account

Fight one battle playing a Tier VI ship

• VI Repulse with a Port slot and Commander with 10 skill points
  
• 7 days of Warships Premium Account

• 20x rare expendable economic bonuses of each type
  
• 5x More Coal containers

Win 25 battles playing Tier IV–X ships

• 14 days of Warships Premium Account
  
• Premium Ship V container

• Every single battle a Recruit fights in a Division with their Recruiter will net them 5 Community Tokens—10 if the battle ends in victory.

---

The World of Warships Seventh Anniversary party has spread to the Recruiting Station with bonus prizes and hot giveaways for both Recruiters and their Recruits while Update 0.11.8 is live! Each successful Recruit means guaranteed Community Tokens plus entry to both a weekly giveaway and the Grand Giveaway that takes place at the close of the event with Premium ship containers, t-shirts, or even the coveted Belfast on the line!

Commanders!

When World of Warships first released in 2015, there were only two nations available to play: USA and Japan.

Now—7 years, 11 nations, and 400+ ships later—we’re proud to be able to celebrate our game’s anniversary with a pleasure cruise down memory lane: pick up our festive gift and experience a wave of nostalgia aboard some of our most veteran American and Japanese Tier III researchable ships, each with her own 3-point Commander.

To unlock the gift, simply claim one of the following Free DLCs:

• American Freedom

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1889260/World_of_Warships

• Way of the Warrior

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1954920/World_of_Warships

As soon as you claim one of the two, the other will also be automatically unlocked on your account. In total, you will receive:

• American Destroyer Wickes
  
• American Cruiser St. Louis
  
• American Battleship South Carolina
  
• Japanese Destroyer Wakatake
  
• Japanese Cruiser Tenryū
  
• Japanese Battleship Kawachi
  
• 2 days of Warships Premium Account

*These ships are researchable — meaning that they can be earned in-game through playing. This bundle offers to speed up your low Tier research by giving you immediate access to this nation's different ship types.
If you already own one or more of these ships, you will receive compensation for them in credits.
