Okay, so... no 50% bonus for the British Crusader tank? Really?

We have an Operation named Crusader.
We have a tank named Crusader.

Seen in this picture during Operation Crusader is a... Crusader.


Guess there's no reason to include the Crusader in this special, eh?

I have to say: This is  Crusader special and Not 1 british tank gets a discount(besides the prem tank)?

I have to second this WTF moment.

I know the Brits are new and all but I gotta admit that its kinda weird that the namesake of the event isn't even in the event...

I have to third this WTF moment.

I intentionally did not buy a Crusader yet because I believed, apparently wrongly, that the Crusader would be on-sale during "Operation Crusader."

I'd like to meet the guy that said "Yeah, this makes sense....."

[jacksknightx]

LOL i just sold my crusader earlier then saw this. I thought man now i have to buy it back for some special...Guess thats not the case.

[BattlecryGWJ]

Gotta say, I'm among those that's disappointed the Crusader isn't included on the special, but hey, thanks for what it is.

Edit: Really, we can't be too surprised that they aren't putting Brit tanks on special so soon after releasing them.

Heyooo, I would have loved to have seen some more British love for this special as well.  Seeing as how...you know...it was a British operation.  Unfortunately, the specials are planned and input into the system pretty far in advance.  If I had to guess, I'd say that the release date of the British Vehicles wasn't 100% guaranteed at the time the special was created.

You can expect to see more attention paid to the British Vehicles for upcoming specials though.

I have to stop reading into these named specials...Crusader. I wish they would just call them Specials...Crusader...so I don't get my hopes up for anything specific...Crusader...that might be implied...Crusader... in the actual name of the special...Crusader.

No Matildas, A13 Mk. II Cr. Tank Mk. IV, Valentines, or even Crusaders? So the only tank units really being promoted are Germans?

Another question why is the American Lee and M3 Stuart in the event? These are not Lend Lease units. These units have no English crews.

I think you missed the the mark for this event WG

[RusoSova]

WTF moment one thousand. No crusaded on a crusader special.....

Sounds like an opportunity for WG to improve on how they do things.

Or just carry on as usual and look a little bit silly along the way...

Point of fact they were in N. Africa.   The LEE was in fact the Grant variant I believe, and was a welcome sight to the British crews due to the larger gun that could bring some pain to the PZ's Rommel was fielding.

Ah, now I understand. The British tanks were added into the game without any advance planning, it all happened just from one day to another. That explains some things ;)
