Seahawks Battle Path: Info and Preorder

Commanders!

Today, we’d like to tell you more about the upcoming Seahawks Battle Path campaign as a whole along with the changes and improvements we’ve prepared for you.

You can now secure the access to the Battle Path early (and with preorder-exclusive items) in the Web Shop “Battle Path” section. The following bundles are available:

• Seahawks access with the Seahawk (Early) camouflage and the Desert Hawk decal
• Seahawks access with 50.000 Battle Coins, the Seahawk (Early) camouflage and the Desert Hawk decal
• Seahawks access with 10 Battle Coin boosters, the Seahawk (Early) camouflage and the Desert Hawk decal

The Seahawk (Early) camouflage is based on the woodland pattern used by the Seahawks during their early Balkans campaign. For more details about the Battle Path, please read below.

The shop can be accessed in the game by pressing the shopping basket icon in the upper left corner. Or here:

The concept of this Battle Path ties in to what’s going on with Armored Warfare right now. As you can see from the multiple “autumn update” posts, we’re having a bit of a renaissance here. With that come new players and judging from the popularity of the Special Operations mode and the questions being asked, some are definitely interested in Armored Warfare’s lore.

With this Battle Path, we’re going back to the concept of story-driven events and diaries. The Seahawks Battle Path narrates the Seahawks story which the Black Company Special Operations directly follow, from the very beginning (introducing the world of Armored Warfare) to the events that took place right before the beginning of Rate of Decay.

Now, some of you know the story already – perhaps you have even been playing since 2017 when the tale got told for the first time. Not to worry, we’ve prepared a lot of other things to motivate you to enter this Battle Path than just the story – although it’ll be great to see it come to life with brand-new Diary illustrations instead of just texts. For the first time, the story will also be available in Russian.

Speaking of motivating, there will be 50 levels packed full of prizes. As usual, we’ve prepared three brand-new vehicles for you:

• Cheonma-2 Tier 10 Premium MBT for reaching Level 20
• VN20 Tier 10 Premium TD for reaching Level 35
• XK3 Tier 10 Premium MBT for reaching Level 50

These aren’t directly tied to a story but each of them represents a looted Clayburn Industry facility as Andrew Clayburn does like to acquire interesting prototypes for his R&D department. Each of these is a Tier 10 Premium vehicle with a separate, unique gameplay but we’re just getting started. This Battle Path will offer three Premium commanders as well:

• Joshua Seagrove for reaching Level 11
• Kathryn Grey for reaching Level 15
• Fedor Sokolov for reaching Level 17

These commanders have been around for a long time but, for this event, we have decided to give them an overhaul that will be available for the Battle Path’s release (and yes, the overhaul also includes Samuel Thorpe from the previous Battle Path). If you have these commanders already, you will receive Battle Coins instead.

But that’s still not all. We took a lot of inspiration from the 2017 Storyline Campaign and included a number of other prizes that had appeared in it before. Specifically:

• Stingray “Black Eagle” Premium LT and all the Black Eagle skins
• T-72 Victory Premium MBT
• Sabre Premium AFV

And, of course, there’s the Abrams AGDS Tier 9 Premium Tank Destroyer that originally appeared as the event’s top prize. The rest of the prizes (camouflages, decals and more) are brand-new or reimagined.

And last but not least, there will be several Seahawk Loot Crates waiting for you, which include:

• AbramsX Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank
• EMBT Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank
• Puma Tier 10 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle
• Boxer CRV Tier 9 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle
• Battle Coin Boosters
• Platinum Boosters
• Platinum Loot Crates

If you have one of these vehicles already and it drops for you, you will receive its full price in Gold.

All that – for the same price as before. Lower in fact, as we reduced the price per Level from 5.000 Battle Coins to 4.500 Battle Coins.

As usual, we’re updating the Battle Coin shop. However, instead of simply adding new things, we are (based on your feedback) lowering the prices across the board. The prices now follow this system:

• All Tier 10 vehicles now cost 75999 Battle Coins
• All Tier 9 vehicles now cost 55999 Battle Coins
• All Tier 8 vehicles now cost 35999 Battle Coins
• All Tier 7 vehicles now cost 21999 Battle Coins
• All Tier 6 vehicles now cost 12999 Battle Coins
• All Tier 5 vehicles and below now cost 5999 Battle Coins
• Camouflages and base paints now cost 5999 Battle Coins
• Most skins now cost 19999 Battle Coins (except for the most epic ones which now cost 44999 Battle Coins)

Once again, we are changing the mission requirements but this time, we updated the Elite missions as well. In Seahawks, the mission chains will include:

• Bulwark vehicles (older German and Soviet machines)
• Mauler vehicles (cutting edge German machines)
• Remnant vehicles (Polish machines)

The Elite missions are replaced by Seahawk missions (requiring Seahawk vehicles). In case these faction names are unfamiliar to you, they come from a story that preceded even the Seahawk tale and we’ll refresh your memory (or introduce them again) in the future. For now, the important part is that:

• Each of the three chains rewards you with Battle Coin boosters and a single Seahawk Loot Crate
• The Seahawk missions (previously Elite missions) award you with Abrams AGDS (or its full price in Gold if you have it already)

The rest of the Battle Path remains mostly the same. The Battle Path is currently planned to launch in November but, as usual, the specific date will be announced a bit later.

We hope you’ll enjoy this Battle Path as much as we enjoyed designing it and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!
