Announcing Operation: Confederate

hobbstrosity's Photo hobbstrosity Feb 18 2013

Tankers, for the next few days you're eligible for 10k bonus credits any time you earn the Confederate medal. It takes some real combat awareness to consistently nab this achievement; I'm only sitting on a handful myself.

You can find the details for Operation: Confederate here!

Nice to see this. I have more confederates then TGs. IMO, they are just as important.

how about 1000 Xp or 100 gold?  :Smile_smile:   credits are too easy too get.

Confederate is my favorite medal.  I like knowing that I had a hand in taking down much of the other team even though someone else gets the kill.

I just grabbed another this morning.
In fact, I just set my new XP high in my T34 thanks to the Valentine Day code too.
(It's too bad that the "record" XP includes premium.  I hardly ever have premium and I know that there have been better games but without the premium bonus they aren't higher than "records" set with premium active)

Spoiler

I agree that while nice, something other than 10k credits should be the award....  I prefer gold.

But...I LIKE killing my targets ;)
Actually...this is  a chance for all the kill-stealers to give me SOMETHING back lol.

I knock a Tier 8 to 4 HP with a few shots...and some Lowe or T34 plinks that last shot from camp across the map hehe. At least now I will get SOMETHING for it lol. Besides the damage points...and the the spotting/damage points.

Guess I better split my aiming for now, not just concentrate on the target in my face ;)

Allright, everyone will be really happy that we will have a few days without any kills.
Just hope that the majority of players do not read the news and the forum.

this happens to me all the time cuz i had the KV-1S and i would have my kill stolen due to my slow reload and happens in my T25 AT as well, i seem to pic supportive tanks that deal damage but never finish the kill when traveling with a group, which is the best way to succeed

I heard the Lee has a particular affinity for this medal, but not if you call it an M3 Grant. I can't fathom why...

So... I damage six tanks, more than anyone else on my team, BUT I kill one of the six.  No medal.... that kinda sucks.

Works well with the grind in my T-43. The tank doesn't put out much damage, but it has a nice RoF. Already earned two of these medals today. Nice. =^_^=

This really needs to have xp for it. There are many tanks that don't get kills because the gun does so little damage.

Who needs 10k credits? EXP is much more valuable. I also second one of the previous poster's comments regarding the rules for receiving the medal. So many games I damage 9 or more tanks, but kill a few, and someone else who damages fewer tanks gets the confed medal, and I get nothing. Unless of course I get TG. It shouldn't be important if you kill the enemies you damage. I doubt it happens often but the current rules kind of encourage spreading damage out, rather than focusing on eliminating a tank, and don't reward players who contribute more.

Had a battle last weekend where i damaged 10 and killed 5 of them.  If i had killed one more or one less I would have had a medal.  Can't complain cuz it was a heck of a battle and we won.
