Camouflage is not just a pattern that disguises a tank's hull. It's a secret weapon. Allies are more likely to follow a vehicle wearing a stylish camouflage, while the enemy will think twice before firing at such beauty!
We'd like to invite you to participate in the Smashing Camo contest! Get locked and loaded with a graphic editor and create your own warpaint. Creators of the three best works will be awarded the following prizes: the FV217 Badger, the AMX 30 1er prototype, and the IS-3 Defender. The brightest and most original warpaint may later be added to the game!
