[Homefront] Give Them Nothing!

On July 25, an exciting new PvE game mode will be available in World of Tanks: Homefront. Battle in teams of five to defend the Eastern or Western Front and fight off enemy armies that attack your land in increasingly powerful waves. Engage in the fiercest of battles, prevent enemies from breaking through the last line of defense, and earn unique styles, improved equipment, and other rewards! 

Wait — How Do I Access Homefront?

Two ways (at the Garage):

1. Click on the "Homefront" box in the lower right-hand corner of the screen (boxed in white)
2. Click on "Random Battle" (to the right of the big red "Battle!" button) at the top of the screen (boxed in yellow) and then select "Homefront" at the bottom of the pull-down menu:

General Overview 

Battles take place on both the Eastern and the Western Front. On each of them, you can join one of three Divisions:

Each Division has its own unique history, a number of available vehicles, and various active and passive abilities.

Battle side by side with random allies or in a Platoon of five (5) friends to stop the onslaught of enemy bots attacking in waves that get stronger with every passing minute. Don’t let them break through your last line of defense or they’ll start dealing damage to your base.

You must defend the base for 10-15 minutes, depending on your current level. The intensity and mood of the game’s dynamic soundtrack vary depending on what’s happening on the battlefield, and the number of enemy waves and base durability points are displayed at the top of the screen. When your base runs out of durability points, your Homefront will be captured and the battle is lost.

Abilities

Each division has its own set of abilities to help quickly deal with enemies. For example: Airstrikes, Low-level Air Attacks, Artillery Strikes, and more. Use them to resist enemy attacks effectively!

Progression System & Rewards  

Choose your division and click "Battle" to start a game. Once you have entered the battle, you can pick a tank of your choice. More than 10 vehicles are available for each Front. 

The level of your Division will increase from one to three as you deal damage to enemy vehicles. As you boost your Division level, your Front will also grow. You get progression points for defeating waves of enemies: the more attacks (waves) you repel, the more points you earn.  

The set of available tanks and their abilities at the first to the third Division level varies. The higher your Division level, the more powerful tanks you can choose and the number of their abilities increase.

When you’ve earned enough points and your Division reaches level two, you will be awarded with Directives and a unique camo for Soviet, British, or American vehicles, depending on your chosen Division. Achieving the third and highest level of your Division rewards you with Equipment.

But when your Division reaches its maximum level, the expansion of the Front doesn't end. You need to continue boosting it until the end to get the most valuable rewards of the event — an Innovative Loading System (for players on the Western Front) or a Stabilizing Equipment System (for players on the Eastern Front). You can earn them both by playing for each of the Fronts.

You have the opportunity to speed up your progress and get valuable Bond equipment faster by purchasing special bundles. They contain additional bonuses, including days of Premium Account, XP and Credit boosters, and more. Thanks to these extras, you can boost your Front faster and shorten the way to your well-deserved rewards.

If your tank is destroyed, you can choose another one and roll out to battle again. Play until your Division’s available vehicles run out!

Players with low-spec CPUs and graphics cards may experience some performance issues when running Homefront. To avoid them and play with maximum comfort, change the graphics settings in your game client in accordance with the capabilities of your CPU and graphics card.

Earning Fuel

Battles on the Homefront will consume a special resource known as Fuel. Every day, your vault is filled with two (2) cans of Fuel. You also get two (2) cans of Fuel for upgrading the 2nd level of your Division and four (4) cans of Fuel for reaching the 3rd level. In addition, you can receive additional cans by completing daily battle missions available in the mode.

Watch Out for Your Command Vehicles! 

Some waves of enemies are fairly easy to repel. But during other waves, you may face overpowered tanks, and you must push yourself to the limit to destroy them. These vehicles are marked with a skull, so keep your eyes peeled — if one of them crosses the line of your base, its durability instantly drops to zero (0), and the battle is lost.

Resupply Points 

In the heat of battle, don't forget that you have a limited number of shells. You can replenish ammunition at special resupply points on the map. By picking up shells, you top up your entire team’s ammunition.

Defend your Homefront from waves of enemies, win on the battlefield, and get valuable equipment and styles as rewards!
