With the release of Update 1.5.1, we’re introducing a new feature, Crew Books, allowing you to speed up training one or more Crew members by instantly adding a certain amount of Crew XP. You can get Crew Books:
As rewards in various game events
As free items from Rewards for Merit that drop with a certain probability when playing Tier V-X vehicles
And some types are available for Credits.
Let's take a closer look at these types:
