Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

Makes me wonder though, what BR will it sit at if so ^^

I agree with you actually, I mentioned the same thing a few comments ago.
However, they haven’t announced any vehicles yet, it was just a preview of their plans. That’s what I meant, although it’s just my own interpretation.
I also think the Marut is very likely, since its model is already done.
That said, Marut it’s the only Tank models that hasn’t been added yet and doesn’t belong to the German tech tree. All the other Tank models should go to Germany. That’s what I meant when I said that maybe, by mentioning Tank, there’s a higher chance it’s something for Germany. But again, that’s just my interpretation.

I also think the Naval reward is German as you clearly want people to grind these bigger and more iconic ships, what better way to get people to grind them by adding a event one too.

The CM disclosure does specify iconic. The Tosa class isn’t exactly iconic, or known for their role as battleships. Plus the turrets on Amagi are specifically the post-rebuilt Nagato turrets and not the ones she was supposed to have (although funny enough the rebuilt turrets on Nagato and Mutsu were taken from Tosa and Kaga). I think they already have a Nagato model ready and she should be expected first.

idk if this is weird to say but I have like zero interest in the Marut like I looked into it and idk its very meh?

I agree it could be the German Navy. Do you have anything in mind? Gneisenau or a Deutschland class ship?

The only reason we had the Mutsu was because the Nagato will be coming in its final configuration. And it must come before or together with the Bismarck, not after. To be honest, Bismarck is already around the corner.

I can see them having Terpitz be the reward with Bismarck being the tech tree ship lol

It is very possible, only after adding the H-39 in the TT

not really we got an Renown as an Event ship when the top ship for the uk was Hood both were 7.0s. We also got HMS Barham as an event ship before any tech tree QE-class

Yeah, our second and third 7.0 ships were both event ships added a while after the first and both were first-in-class in game.

Id guess for Germany as well. Geneisneau sounds good, but its scharnhost class after all and she wont bring much new. Deutschland or admiral sheer seems possible but i wont say they are iconic enough, although, pocket battelships are great for war thunder maps.

I take away the opposite from them mentioning Tank, I think they want to keep it less specific and mentioning it as an Indian vehicle would be too much of a giveaway but saying German or British wouldn’t be correct.

I think you’re right. Also, Gaijin already said that India is a British subtree.

All maruts went supersonic at altitudes, wiki is misleading regarding it never went supersonic. The 2 later variants could possibly go mach 1 or slightly above on the deck

Do you have a new list? I think it’s about time.

Just looked up what the Marut is… Anyone else think this thing looks like a Q-5 with hunter wings, or is that just me?

There was definitely some inspiration at the very least from the MiG-19 for the tail section.

Why exactly 1937 and not 1944/45?

I think he doesn’t mean that specific refit, but that 1937 is when Nagato reentered service after her major rebuild.

Given they have stupidly split the Nagato might as well make sure Nagato is in her 45 config

Yeah I suppose that’s true. Tosa’s in themselves are relatively unknown.
