Next possible date it’s the 10th of August so we will have to wait another 24h+
noooooooooooooooo
With respect no one else ever uses “quarter” that way, it’s always the three-month block the month is in (“quarterly profits,” “quarterly growth”).
So yeah, it’s a 1 and it’s Monday (and they used the second-last reserve date). Would have almost been a clever puzzle if they hadn’t mangled the final clue.

Absolutely, The only reason i view it that way is the way it’s written. It asks for “the exact quarter of the month”, not “the exact quarter of the year”, It’s highly confusingly worded. If they ment what quarter of the year why mention the month at all?
It can still be a one if they ment the first one (and didn’t know about the time in 1947) as that was Dec 1’st making it a 1 and the 10’th.
Either way the clue is oddly worded and ask for something that is ambiguous as it has been placed in reserve more than once.

we are past the first quarter of the month so it is ether the 3rd or 4th week of the month, so it’s the 2nd half of the month either way…
The egregious part was using “an axis fighter in 2 in game nations” when the plane in question was removed in mid 2017 so the only one that is still in game that fits the criteria is the KI-44, so we may actually have to wait until 446 years and 8 months after a new era starts and the calendar resets to zero.
This was just a more annoying way of saying “Soon™”.

huh?
The C.202 is still in the game, just not obtainable in the German tree anymore but those that have it can still paly it. It’s also still listed on the WT wiki.
HMS Belfast was put into reserve on 20/8/1947, 1/12/1952 and 25/2/1963, dividing the months into quarters as the clue says to that is the 3rd, 1st and 4th quarters of the month, we are past the 1st quarter of the month so only the 3rd and 4th remain possibilities.
yeah, so anybody looking in game that started playing after 2017, like me, would not know about it, Italy was already a full nation in the game when I started playing, I only found it because the rest of the clues clearly showed that it needed to be a 202 so I searched the wiki.
This part i don’t understand why you include, the clue just wants the number, so 1, 2, 3 or 4. Not which quarter of this month the SL crates comes but the date on which the come.
I started with the wiki, it’s much easier as you can filter out to only see specifically lower BR fighters from the axis nations, scroll through looking for palindrome numbers and then use the search function to see if they exist in more than one tree.
Best guess = someday next week

dose it though? You are assuming it wants a day, not just the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th week of the month.
Yeah, but I was in game at the time when someone linked it.
and I’m not so worried about it that “later this month” isn’t a good enough answer, it only started bugging me when I noticed they where using removed vehicles and questions with multiple answers.
They’re in the land of “fair and balanced SL crates”
Where players who were ripped off in the past get a comeuppance

Otherwise the clue of “turn your answer 180 degrees” wouldn’t make much sense, it still works but sounds odd. Additionally; if all other clues have been numbers then why would the last ones answer not just also be a number?
Why is 3rd or 4th week of the month any more unreasonable then a specific date? especially given how vague Gaijin likes to be?
Because of how all the other questions give numbers as answers there is no reason to think the last one would deviate from that pattern.
Ok, no offence but you seem to be hyper fixated on the idea that it needs to be an exact date that numbers the exact day, 1,2,3,4 are numbers that can be assigned to the weeks in the month, I do not see how week (1/2/3/4) of/08/2026 is some how not a number
I’m not saying it’s not a valid answer, i’m just saying that there is nothing that indicates that the answer would be in that form.
Then why ask to identify the “quarter of the month” rather than the day? because that only leaves 1,3 and 4 as answers. none of which make any sense as days of the month, so
“When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth .”
To get the number 1, 2, 3 or 4 instead of for example 24 that backwards turns into 42 which isn’t a day of any month.
No?
They do when you use the 0 from the T-80 answer making it 10, 20, 30 or 40 (40 can’t be an answer).
Ok I’m sure we will get the SL creates on the 413rd of august then.
