Warspite woes and drive a tank for gold.

Ever since the HMS Warspite appeared in the game (like what, a day ago now?), many in the Community were curious to know if there were any conditions attached to it. Some speculated that this premium British Battleship would carry forward into Open Beta and even beyond. Others believed that this would be a limited time use vehicle, so enjoy it while it lasts.

With the announcement from the World of Warships Community Manager, Gunlion, it's official purpose and fate are confirmed. Some are nodding their heads in acceptance, others are not too happy about this at all. All I have to say is this; sail it if you got one.

Wait now, why am I bringing up a World of Tanks event on a Ships blog? Simple, you want the opportunity to earn yourself a potential grand total of 930 Gold (up to 30 Gold per day, over 31 days, equals....).

Although Ships is still in Closed Beta and Unified Accounts (the ability to use shared free experience and Gold across certain WarGaming titles) won't be coming for quite a while yet, no harm in adding a little more to the coffers, for when Tanks/Planes/Ships Gold will all be linked.

Despite the hard-drive space required to host all three titles, the event opportunities from the already released games could come in handy if you wanted to switch to the other games, or continue your career in Ships. Every little bit helps.
