War Thunder's Great War event adds SPAD S.XIII and other WWI vehicles

War Thunder is rerunning its Great War event from November 11 until November 18 at 11:00 GMT. Players can participate in The Great War mode to earn several First World War vehicles for their tech trees, including the new SPAD S.XIII fighter for France. Other obtainable vehicles include the Mark V Medium tank for Great Britain, the St-Chamond Medium tank for France, the Garford Light tank for the USSR, and the H.P.12 bomber for Great Britain.

The event features seven stages for both the Triple Entente and the German Empire. Players can complete one stage per side each day by earning 5,000 mission points per stage. Stages change daily at 11:00 GMT between November 12 and November 17.

The mode includes tanks, aircraft, Zeppelin airships, and AI infantry. While tanks in this special difficulty mode have improved mobility compared to their real-world counterparts, any vehicles players add to their tech trees will retain their historical speed and maneuverability when used in regular Ground Realistic Battles.

Players who already own all of the vehicles from last year's First World War event will receive a trophy for each owned vehicle instead of a new vehicle. These trophies contain items such as 20-50% RP or SL boosters for 3-10 battles, 3-5 universal backups, one day of Premium account, or a random ground vehicle camouflage.
