Greetings, fellow Captains!
Today I'm going to tell you about Clan Battles,
changes in the smoke screen mechanics, Halloween in World of Warships,
and other new features brought by Update 0.6.12.
Captain, if you haven't joined a clan yet, this is your chance!
The time has come to write your clan's good name
into the history of World of Warships.
Update 0.6.12 now features Clan Battles!
On your way to the top, you'll pass four Leagues:
Squall, Gale, Storm, and Typhoon (the highest one).
The stormier the seas, the more ferocious the battles.
Every victory brings your clan Rating points,
and every defeat takes them away.
These results will affect your clan's place
in the global standoff.
You'll need a team of seven trusted warriors,
Tier X ships, and a desire to win.
By the way,
if you don't have a Tier X ship, that's not a problem.
Only in Clan Battles, Update 0.6.12 offers three of them to rent:
cruiser Zao, destroyer Shimakaze, and battleship Großer Kurfürst.
The best part is that you can rent them for absolutely free.
Three weeks later, the rental time will be over,
and another three high tier ships will arrive.
To learn all the details about Clan Battles and the rental offer,
you can read a dedicated article.
Attention, Captains!
Update 0.6.12 brings changes to the mechanics of smoke screens.
Now, when firing your primary armament through the smoke,
you'll increase the detectability distance for your ship.
And it doesn't matter whether the ship is hiding
inside the smoke or behind it—
the most important thing is that a smoke screen is in sight.
A smoke screen
will bring your ship's detectability range down to a value,
which depends on her size and the caliber of her guns.
A detailed outline of these values is available
in the update's full list of changes.
Important information for owners of Premium cruisers
with a Smoke Generator option!
If you decide that after the changes made to the mechanics of smoke screens,
Mikhail Kutuzov, Belfast, or Perth don't meet your gaming expectations any more,
you'll have six weeks— until Update 0.6.14 is released—
to sell them in Port and receive their full value in doubloons.
But keep in mind that, starting from Update 0.6.12,
Mikhail Kutuzov, Belfast, and Perth will be withdrawn from sale.
The first two ships will be withdrawn for good
while the "Aussie" is expected to return.
Good news to the owners of ships with Hydroacoustic Search
and Surveillance Radar.
The display range of this equipment can now be set up in the minimap.
To do so, simply click the Settings icon above the minimap
and select the required options.
Only those who have known the horrors of the night,
can truly appreciate the dawn.
The sinister Zikasa's are back.
Transylvania is threatened again.
The legendary trio of Igor, Jackal, and Blade
are ready for battle again!
Will you manage to fight off the monsters' attacks
and save Transylvania?
Warriors of Light, accept the challenge and send the monsters
to sleep with the fishes, just like the good old days!
See you in the shadowy world, Captains!
You thought that was it?
You wish!
The quiet haven of Silver Spear Archipelago
is no place to rest.
The Forces of Evil are close, and the despicable Filth is on your heels.
Halloween is never over!
