Tankers!
We'd like to be the first to welcome you to Season 18 of the Global Map!
Season 18 of the Global Map will last from April 25 until June 20.
This season can be considered experiemental, as it comes with a fundamentally new distribution model of Gold and Bonds for playing on the Global Map.

---|---|
Monday, April 25 |
Monday, June 20 07:59 PT | 09:59 CT | 10:59 ET |
Please note: The last day of battles will be June 19.
In previous Seasons, Gold was earned by Clans. By capturing provinces and completing Clan Tasks, Clans received Gold in their Treasury, which in turn was managed by Clan officers. This will change in Season 18.
Now Gold will be received not only by Clans, but also by players for their activity on the Global Map. At the same time, the strategic component will remain, and clans will need to capture territories and hold them to earn Gold.
Workflow of the New Distribution System
How It Works for Players
A personal daily leaderboard for players will appear on the Global Map. To enter the leaderboard, players only need to fight battles on the Global Map. For each battle, all participants will receive personal Fame Points.
Having earned 15 Points, players enter the leaderboard and will receive Gold. The higher the player is on the leaderboard, the more Gold they receive. The minimum amount a player can receive for entering the leaderboard is 10 Gold. The maximum amount is 40 Gold. In addition, those who are in the top 50% of the leaderboard will also receive from 15 to 75 Bonds.
The accumulated Gold and Bonds can be collected at any time on the Clan Dashboard.
The leaderboard is reset the next day and the cycle will repeat. For each day of play on the Global Map, battle participants will earn Gold, and the most active and successful players will also earn Bonds.
What's Changed for Clans?
Clans will continue to earn Gold and Bonds for the clan Treasury. The general mechanics for Clans is similar to those from big events, but are much simpler. A weekly Clan leaderboard by Clan Fame Points will appear on the Global Map. Clan Fame Points are earned in battles and for capturing and holding provinces, as well as for completing Clan Tasks. The Clans that reach the top positions on the leaderboard will receive Gold, while the most successful Clans will also receive Bonds. The quantity of Gold and Bonds distributed among Clans depends on the activity of players during the week. The total quantity of Gold and Bonds distributed among Clans will be equal to the sum of Gold and Bonds earned by players for their personal leaderboard throughout the whole week. At the end of the week, the weekly clan leaderboard is reset and the cycle starts again.
Therefore, the more players participate in battles on the Global Map, the more Gold and Bonds Clans will earn for their Treasury.
Season Rewards and Season Leaderboard
We have kept the traditional commemorative rewards at the end of the Season. The general Clan leaderboard of the Season will appear on the Global Map, and by the Season's end, Clans will receive the traditional rewards—Medals, Styles, and Decals. We have prepared a new 2D Style, Warrior of the North, for the Season participants. The Workshop will function as normal during Seasons.

- The minimum amount a player can receive for entering the leaderboard is 10 Gold. The maximum amount is 40 Gold.

- All accumulated Gold and Bonds can be claimed at any moment. They are automatically credited once the Season ends or when players leave the Clan.
- The leaderboard is reset when battles start the next day.
All team players will receive personal Fame Points equally through their accumulation for each battle fought according to the following rules:
Victory in the Tournament on the Landing Province | Defeat in the Tournament on the Landing Province |
Victory in the tournament among challengers in a regular province |
Defeat in the tournament among challengers in a regular province |
Victory in the battle with the province owner |
Defeat in the battle with the province owner |

Victory | Defeat | Tournament Among Challengers in A Regular Province | Battle with the Province Owner |
---|---|---|---|
15 | 5 | 14 | 14 |
Regardless of whether a team wins or loses, Points will be awarded to players only if the team destroys five or more enemy vehicles.
Clan Leaderboard
- The Clan leaderboard is formed based on Clan Fame Points. Depending on their position by the end of the week, Clans can receive Gold and Bonds for their Treasury.
- The quantity of Gold and Bonds distributed among Clans is equal to the quantity of Gold and Bonds earned by players for entering the personal leaderboard over a week.
- Clan Fame Points can be earned for participating in battles, for capturing provinces, for owning provinces, and for completing Clan Tasks.
- The Clan leaderboard is reset at the end of the week.
The formula for calculating clan Fame Points earned in battles:
Where:
- Fame_Points = clan Fame Points earned in battle
- Fame_points_base = the base number of clan Fame Points
- Battle_type_c = battle type multiplier
- Event_value_c = game event multiplier
- Еlo_c = Elo rating multiplier, corresponding to the front Elo rating for Tier X vehicles
- Team_XP = the number of experience points a team earned in battle
- Battle_XP = the total number of experience points both teams earned in battle
- Team_size = the size of the team (set at 15 players)
Battle Type Multiplier (Battle_type_c)
BATTLE TYPE | MULTIPLIER |
---|---|
Tournament on a landing province | 1 |
Tournament among challengers on a regular province | 5 |
Battle with the province owner | 5 |
Elo Rating Multipliers (Elo_c)
ELO RATING OF THE OPPONENT CLAN | ELO_C |

≤1,000 | 1.0 |
1,001–1,050 | 1.1 |
1,051–1,100 | 1.2 |
1,101–1,150 | 1.3 |
1,151–1,200 | 1.4 |
1,201–1,250 | 1.5 |
1,251–1,300 | 1.6 |
1,301–1,350 | 1.7 |
1,351–1,400 | 1.8 |
1,401–1,450 | 1.9 |
≥1,451 | 2.0 |
Clans receive 12,000 Clan Fame Points for the first capture of any province. The first capture of a province will net Clan Fame Points once per Season.
Clans receive Clan Fame Points for owning a province. The number of Fame Points earned for owning a province decreases for each day of ownership.
When a province is captured repeatedly (excluding capture after leaving the Global Map), the bonus remains as if the Clan owned it without interruption.
After leaving the Global Map, the bonus for owning a province starts to be credited in full, as if the clan did not previously own this province.
For example, a Clan owns a province for three days, loses it, then re-captures it the following day. In this case, the Clan will receive 3,000 Clan Fame Points for the first day of resumed ownership and 0 Clan Fame Points for the following day.
Game Days a Clan Owns a Province | Clan Fame Points |

1 | 12,000 |
2 | 9,000 |
3 | 6,000 |
4 | 3,000 |

Workshop
In Season 18, players will have access to the Workshop where they can produce various rewards using resources earned after battles on the Global Map.
The amount of resources is the same for all team members and depends on the following factors:
- Clans earn more resources for a victory than for a defeat.
- The more enemy vehicles they destroy, the more resources the Clan will receive.
- If a Clan fails to destroy at least one enemy vehicle, players will not receive resources for such a battle.
Items that can be produced in the Workshop:
Name | Contents | Amount |
---|---|---|
50 Bonds |
|
10 Times per Account |
Set of Personal Reserves |
|
5 Times per Account |
Set of Styles |
|
Once per Account |
Ultimate Bundles |
|
Once per Account |
Only one item can be produced at a time. However, others can be added to the production queue. The produced items are added to the player's account immediately after the production is complete. Items in the production queue can be shifted within it, or removed from the queue altogether, returning the resources to the Depot in full.
In the Workshop, players can find the battle log. It displays the amount of resources earned in all battles since the start of Season 18. The Workshop will be available until the end of the Season on Monday, June 20 at 07:59 PT | 09:59 CT | 10:59 ET. All unused resources and produced components will then be deducted.
Playing Field
Season 18 will take place in South America. The income of the provinces that are always present on the map is disabled.
A total of 207 provinces will be available on the map, of which about 25% will be landing provinces.

- In contradictory cases related to adding Fame Points (e.g., suspicions of fixed battles, etc.), the administration reserves the right to demand the battle replay, screenshots, and other related information. If the requested information is not provided, the administration reserves the right to make a decision at their discretion. We strongly recommend players activate Enable Battle Recording in the game settings.
- It is prohibited to use the game in ways that are not provided for by the License Agreement, the Game Rules, or other Wargaming rules, as well as those that go beyond the scope of standard gameplay. Passive (pacifist) behavior towards members of another team, Clan, or Clan alliance is prohibited. If violations are detected, Clans will be removed from the Global Map. In case of repeated violation, more severe penalties may be imposed on Clans.
Playoff Tournament
Once the Season is over we're planning to have playoff tournament for the top Clans. Stay tuned for details!
Best of luck on the battlefield!
