You won’t even believe—it’s a Russian holyday, and guess the big one: those are remarkable soviet airplane designers and engineers. Truly the Nuke of the year.
Just feels like only soviets get discounts for “this designers birthday” or “this vehicles intro” meanwhile I cant recall the last time I saw a similar such event for 90% of premiums in other trees.
These dates just line up together and they happen to be Soviet. We always tend to do discounts or a mini-event for a decal or decoration for all nations when the date for something comes by. For example, for next week.
Still strange to me that the soviets seem to get 2-3x more than everyone else. Feels like every week their vehicles are on sale. I dont recall the last time multiple aircraft were even on sale. Like for example the Sea Vixen. Could have gone on sale in July for de Havillands birthday
Kinda true. Looking through, 4 of the 5 Designer Birthdays are Soviet (counting from Kamov’s last birthday) Aleksander Pokryshkin, Kamov, Lavochkin, Polikarpov. The only other being Shozo Kawasaki’s.
Counting back from Sep '24, you also have Tupolev’s birthday. So 5/6 of the Designers birthdays are Soviet since then.
I think a lot of the First Flights are Non-Soviet but not more in one nation than another.
I’m now a little interested in which nation gets more sales. Can’t wait to start it and then procrastinate!
We do more Soviet designer birthday discounts, that’s true. We’re open to suggestions on other birthdays for other designers, let us know and we’ll see if we can fit them in the calendar. Some might make it, some might not, it depends on how busy everything is. Cheers!
