My question is; can we get the times and days in US Eastern and/or Pacific time? I'll be honest, I have no clue what in hell UTC is. Is it the same as GMT?

Well this should make my grind to the Panther II and VK3001P a lot more profitable, and that discount on equipment will really come in handy. Plus I may even be able to get a half-price Tiger if I act quickly, wins all around!

Hot damn! Another double credit weeekend! I got my M5, Chaffee, and Easy 8 ready to roll! Russian tankers will have to wait on the devs to put out East Front anniversary specials and famous Soviet generals birthdays like Zhukov's Konev's and Vatutin's.

I bought 4 of those tanks at full price in the past week.. d'oh! Oh well, they weren't that much. I'll just have to make up the difference in double credit bonuses.

Posted here and in newcomers forums.   This is a universal clock, it will tell you what time it is in your city and the current UTC time.  The second link is just a fancy UTC clock.

If i buy 30 days premium i receive 90 days? Or it's only works for 1 day???
only 1 day gets that bonus. the others are still the same ammount of days.

Bascialy it works out the same as the 30 day subscription price per day you get.

Anyone truly wants to sink their teeth into this special, I would suggest getting a hold of the movie "A Bridge Too Far". It's a 1977 war movie chock full of high grade actors who really give you a perspective on how hard they fought to the bitter end to make this plan work. I personally never thought it was the plan that was poorly executed, but was rather a nightmare given operational status. Montgomery and his staff who planned this whole operation, forgot that no battle plan survives first contact with the enemy. His plan was so intricately independently linked, everything had to happen just right and in just the right sequence . . . well, they didn't.

The saddest point in the movie are the commanders, standing over the hill overlooking the last bridge, discussing why the plan failed.

A Bridge Too Far rated 7.3/10 by IMDB

Hmm I don't remember that bit. Must be time to rewatch this movie again.

What I do remember from that movie is the paratroopers who were driven off their resupply point and the Allied supply drops could not be rerouted (bad contingency planning). However, one plane did drop off something to the paratroopers who were signalling desperately and men died to retrieve it. When they got it back to safety it turned out to be a carton of red berets. That image has stuck with me for a long time.
