Wanted: Renegade, Dead or Alive

November 29, 2019, 08:00 UTC through December 9, 2019, 08:00 UTC

The M54 Renegade: Sturdy, Desperate, Stout-Hearted

The main reward in this Challenge is a new American heavy tank—a natural-born fighter and a true all-rounder. The M54 Renegade is capable of brilliantly performing any combat missions and perfectly demonstrates its versatile character in the most difficult situations on the battlefield. Many vehicles surpass it in specific parameters, but in terms of the totality of its characteristics, it compares favorably against any tank in the game.

Your enemies will never be safe from its easily penetrating sharpshooting gun with 360 points of alpha damage. Good accuracy (0.36) allows you to keep your distance to help protect the vulnerable commander’s cupola. Finally, the menacing Renegade boasts a medium tank’s mobility with a maximum speed of 45 km/h.

This heavy tank features protection typical of U.S. vehicles: a solid turret and decent hull armor. The sloped armor allows the upper glacis plate to have an effectiveness that may exceed 220 mm. As for the commander’s cupola, despite its vulnerability, it has decent armor thickness and slopes that shells ricochet off instead of penetrate. Don’t be afraid to take advantage of your armor—the Renegade can withstand the blow.

The Renegade’s dynamics is something it can be proud of. The vehicle is quite maneuverable for a heavy tank as it can change flanks, return to the defense, or join the medium tanks in an attack. Change positions according to the current combat situation and use every chance to cause damage.
   

The brand-new M54 Renegade comes with a unique look* in a Wild West style, designed specifically for this audacious brawler. It highlights its streamlined silhouette and features the inscription "Dead or Alive", which perfectly illustrates the character of this daring, desperate and hazardous tough guy. Check it out!

The style is not sold separately and applies only to the M54 Renegade.

How It Works

The Renegade Challenge will last 10 days and includes 10 consecutive stages. To make the event more fun, there are two ways to earn rewards. Both sets of tasks can be fulfilled simultaneously (given all conditions are met).

  • Missions for Commitment. The best option for players with a strong desire to get their hands on the Grand Prize. Task conditions will be diverse, but they must be performed using Tier VI–X tanks. Remember: your result will only count if you are one of the top 10 XP earners on your team at the end of a battle—no matter whether your team wins or loses.
  • Missions for Mastery. You can perform alternative, but more complex tasks. Fulfilling these objectives will save you time, but you’ll have to give your all to succeed. You can only complete these tasks using Tier IX–X machines.
