I kept the WW1 vehicles at a higher price since they are very special compared to the usual event vehicles we get. But again, specific vehicles and specific prices for them that I’m showing in the illustration don’t matter. At the end of the day Gaijin will make these choices, I’m just giving people a illustration to show my idea.

Just added another houserule to the suggestion:
I just thought of it and was suprised I hadn’t talked about it yet in the suggestion. But yeah as the discription says, brand new event vehicles don’t show up in this event right away. They come at roughly a 1 year delay, making sure that people that got the new event vehicles can enjoy it for some time before it becomes more common with it’s introduction in this event.

Yes and the stars being purchasable for GE is enough I think. It’s like the regular events. Locking them behind premiums will generate too much bad will from the players.
And yet you somehow put the FL10 in it. I get it but maybe that should be specified somewhere then
I can make mistakes too. I’ll add a note to the illustration o7
do you see a discussion happening? it ended 15 minutes ago.

This is incredibly well done
I do have some issues
I don’t like tanks like the Type-95 ha-go, AMC.34 YR and FCM.36, h.35 will also become “event vehicles”, I kind of like the current system for these tanks of “reach rank II for these stinkers”.
Also, does the OSU2 also fall within event vehicle in this case?
What about vehicles like the Ki-10-II C, Gladiator Mk IIF, Gladiator Mk IIS, He 51 C-1/L, TB-3 or Po-2? (most are gift vehicles or in some cases removed)
And what happens to removed premiums like the Late 298D or D.371 H.S.9? Are they also classified as “event vehicles”?

+1, however like most events that’s a LOT of grinding in relatively little time.
Even if it was at a higher number of stars required, I’d appreciate it more if it was a permanent thing. For these old vehicles you could slowly knock off progress towards them while doing other research and avoid the event runtimes where everyone is sweating hard and makes playing the game somewhat less enjoyable.

I do not agree that much with this post. I do think the ability to obtain older event vehicles would be nice however I personally don’t think this approach is the way to go. I think being able to get low tier vehicle is fine but anything higher up I personally don’t think should be obtainable. (I also think that only being able to obtain vehicles not a pack vehicle and not available in the market would make more sense to me)
Certain vehicles like the E-100 is rare due to the fact it is a tournament prize vehicle making it so anybody could get it would remove a lot of the incentive for joining a tournament with that vehicle as a prize.
And I also agree with @Scärlett about the pack vehicles.
Just because something is rare doesn’t mean that there should be a method for any user to get it.
The packs you mention being no longer available go on sale every now and then sales were in 2013, 2017, 2020 and 2022 with limited numbers.
I agree not getting a vehicle and events feel like FOMO (Fear of Missing out) however it’s the same with any limited or special occasion thing even in real life. I personally have a collection of things that contain limited quantity, special editions, pre-order bonuses etc. and if any body could get those items at any point after that it would remove the incentive for purchasing those things, which would entail the companies that make them to stop making them special. (Bad analogy, but hopefully it make sense)

Rule 2.3 of the Gaijin Community Guidelines: Common Rules
The Users are not permitted to use red color when drafting and designing posts and signatures on the Forum. The red font is reserved for Administration and the Website Managers.
I added this as a note to the illustration:
The exact specific vehicles aren’t as important as the actual event idea itself. I had personally forgotten about the fact that those Rank 1 vehicles got unlocked as soon as you reached Rank II.
This is all down to what Gaijin wants to do with them. Me personally, I see removed premium vehicles as sort of event vehicles. As soon as they are unobtainable, I think they should be part of this event.
Making this event a permanent thing removes all value of the current event vehicles, and any new onces in the future. I get it that you’d like to get your hands on the older event vehicles quickly, but realistically there must be some kind of heavy grind to it. Otherwise it would simply devalue the price of event vehicles to the point that they are nothing special anymore. And we got to keep in mind that Gaijin wants some way to profit of this, so the setup I propose has many ways for Gaijin to make a profit of it.
Like I’ve said before, the specific vehicles I’m showing in this suggestion aren’t as important. And I’ve accidentally included some that I thought were permanently removed of the store, but actually weren’t.

100$ for a plane is ridiculous for example the F11 F1 which is a rare event plane even though its a service vehicle that saw actual service warthunder market place should be gone

there shouldnt be a value on event vehicles esspecially since most event vehicles are OP and usually undertiered like BI or the new F6C for example they should not be only obtainble by money thats a ingame stock market basically which should not be allowed
event vehicles should not be a thing they should replace them with a tree of vehicles that is simply 3X the normal amount of RP per vehicle
cause im all for having hard to obtain things like cosmetics like in cod with skins but vehicles should not be the same
@super_cacti I also removed the “comment to suggestion moderators” as if you don’t want something possibly locked/passed to the devs then it shouldn’t be made in the suggestions area. As every suggestion has the opportunity to be passed to the devs and when that happens the post is locked.
you can always make a squadron vehicle, pretty much optional and with a hellish wait time.
Spoiler
People really don’t remember squadron vehicles, its a pretty neat way to add peculiar stuff to WT, and they almost never place it as an options on polls

I agree with the grind being “necessary”, and you could add some sort of time gate to this such that you can only select to grind another previous event vehicle every, say, 6 months. I don’t want to get them quicker, I want to not be forced to play all day for two weeks at a time to get them, at the same time as everyone else is also doing it.
