They should’ve just made the reward 500k sl or 1 day of premium time, rather than just a booster.
Maybe its because they don’t want any customized stuff on them in the event, maybe because not everyone has them? I don’t think I will ever know the inner workings of Gaijin.
I was alluding to 2 Key Details:
1: You were guaranteed a vehicle from the get go or premium time if you had everything. You didn’t have to jump through hoops to get a vehicle.
2: The compensation of 3 Days of Premium time. This was the point where I mentioning “valued of time” if you contributed to getting all score you are rewarded if not no harm done.
The random crate just feels more like a slap in face in the current event. IMO I avenues of ingame currency to reward the time for contributing to both this WW1 and last time.
Such items as Premium Time (Premiums back then was worth 3 so I would say 2 days would suffice. You already lose part to a whole day depending grinding the event with each side especially with queue times.
Warbonds can be another option. Marketplace/SL Crate Dupe coupons go for 1600 Warbonds so I can see a number between 750-1000 here.
Last Option would be similar to Duplicates in SL Crates that it gives 1 Million Silver Lions.
Or possibly a combination of the 3 options with lower values if combined.
Also for me this event 4 years ago actually is what got me back into the game (for better or worse). I was a 2012/2013ish player and dropped the game a little after the first nations of tanks got released, late 2015 I believe. This 10 year event I was thinking about this game and happened to see it and end up grabbing the last of vehicles I didn’t have at the time and got 3-6 premium time to boot.

That really sucks because my British tank has a historically accurate decal from a monthly decal drop a few months ago and my A7V is the Mephisto.
Same mine is too. lol

I wish we got a plain camo for the A7V too. My mephisto doesn’t look the best right now with all the other things in it.
So can the award vehicles get the event stats and not what they are now? Even in AB, the stats are worse than the event RB stats. (oops accidently deleted the first post fooling around with the three dots and the undo button after deleting doesn’t undo the delete for some reason)

Oh yeah, funny enough the loadout carry’s over tho.
Ill add 1 more option though highly unlikely the snail would ever do is a Rank 1 Vehicle chest contains previous removed, event, premiums from over the years. Such examples as: Gladiator MkIIS, Gladiator MkIIF, Rank 1 Italy in the Germany Air Tree, Swordfish MkII, etc.

I learned that the hard way when my H.P. 12 was equipt with the one massive bomb instead of the multiple 230 lb ones.
i wish we could get the Zeppelin :(

Yeah he looks good! A totally random soldier from WW1! He would make a great profile pic! I would love to wear this! It’d be a great change of pace from my current WW1 German tanker profile pic! Maybe some like these too!
Don’t we all? But fun isn’t allowed here! I swear. This event was so close to being perfect!!! But of course, they messed it up.

Man, this event really is the one event that gaijin could cram with vehicles and it not be that big of a problem since it’s all barely at or below 1.0. Not even mentioning for award vehicles.

There’s so many wacky WW1 vehicles they could’ve added

Do we not have a decal like the one on this Ft-17 in game? The flaming circle.
I have one that looks just like it on my Saint Chamond
I was curious what they said about the planes on the first run of the Great War event, because people were begging like crazy to get those. It looks like they just kept repeating that the planes would be available in Aces of Thunder. They were very careful not to say that they weren’t going to be added or couldn’t be added to War Thunder. But every response to people asking for the planes was either a flat “nope” or “play Aces of Thunder.” It seems to me that bringing them back was in the plans all along.
