Canada Day (French: Fête du Canada) is the national day of Canada, a federal statutory holiday celebrating the anniversary of the July 1, 1867, enactment of the British North America Act, 1867 (today called the Constitution Act, 1867, in Canada), which united three colonies into a single country called Canada within the British Empire.[1][2][3] Originally called Dominion Day (French: Le Jour de la Confédération), the name was changed in 1982, the year the Canada Act was passed. Canada Day observances take place throughout Canada as well as internationally. ((pulled from wiki))

Nice, very nice.  Please though, give us a week or two warning when you offer the Type 59 again.  Most people I talk to are asking about it.

Thanks.

I came expecting the Type-59 or/and the Ram-II (As it's Canadian) and left disappointed

At least these are somewhat worth it compared to the rest of Junes Gift Shop "Specials"

Hopefully our southern neighbours Independence Day will bring somthing a little more worth while

Anyway Have a happy Canada Day

"Gold, Premium Time, & Repair Kits" looks to be the best bang for the $$.$$ that I'm seeing.  Not by a whole lot, but it seems better than buying gold just for 2 week's worth of premium time by itself.

The package costs $15.79 which gives the following:
1867 gold
7 days premium (worth 1250 gold)
4 large repair kits (worth 200 gold)
Totaling 3317 worth in gold for $15.79 (when 3000 gold normally costs $14.95)
Which is an extra 317 gold for less than a dollar. Not bad, considering that 2 weeks of premium will cost you 2500 gold ($14.00.)  So with this, you get 1 week, can buy 1 week, receive 4 repair kits and have 617 gold left over to mess around with.

However, I'm more interested in a package for Premium Time alone.  $30.00 will buy me 6500 gold.
With that, I can put towards 60 days of premium (worth 5000 gold) and have 1500 gold left over to play with.  With that in mind, how about a special on 1mo, 6mo or even 1year Premium Time package?
That's something that will turn my head AND possibly open my wallet.

Package "Gold, Premium Time, Repair Kit" for USD 15.79
  • Gold: 1867
  • Premium Time: 7 days
  • 4x Large Repair Kits

I see what you did there WG . For the Non-Canadians: http://en.wikipedia....wiki/Canada_Day

I'm still very disappointed that the Ram-II isn't there (Even though I own it), it's basically the only functional Canadian tank so far in WoT.

Ugh. Disappointed.
Seriously, bring back the deal where you got gold + 2m ( or whatever it was) credits, it's the only one i'll ever consider buying.
Does anybody actually spend gold on chocolate or large repair kits?

Nothing here comes close to that T14 tank + 1000gold for $7.99 special that they had in May... ;)

Adding Ram II for Canadian special would be nice also.
