Notice! Projected dates stated below are subject to change. Last updated on April 18, 2012 Version 7.3 is currently estimated to be released at the end of April 2012. Features to be implemented with the 7.3 update: KV-3 to be replaced by the T-150 The KV-3 moves one tier up (from tier 6 to tier 7). The T-150 substitutes it as a tier 6 heavy tank. Thus, the Soviet tech tree from tier 5 to 8 will look like this (disregarding KV-1S): KV-1 tier 5 -> T-150 tier 6 -> KV-3 tier 7 -> KV-4 tier 8. Case 1. KV-3 isn’t in the garage at the time of substitution (update release), but is fully researched:
If engine “V-2IS” was researched in the research tree of KV-3 as tier 6 heavy tank, then it will be available in the research tree of KV-3 as tier 7 heavy. Same goes for the radio “10RK”;
If the turret of KV-3 was researched in the research tree of KV-3 as tier 6, then it will be available as a KV-3 turret in the research tree of KV-3 as tier 7;
If the KV-3 suspension was researched in the KV-3 tier 6 tree, then it will be available as suspension “KV-3 bis” in the research tree of KV-3 as tier 7;
In case the 107mm gun “ZiS-6” was researched in the KV-3 tree as tier 6, it will be available in the T-150 tree, which also leads to this gun available in the KV-3 tier 7 tree;
In case the guns 100mm “D-10T” and 122mm “D2-5T” were researched in KV-3 for tier 6, then they will be available in the KV-3 tier 7 tree;
All undistributed experience earned on KV-3 tier 6 goes to KV-3 tier 7;
All modules from KV-3 tier 6 in depot that don’t fit onto other vehicles (turrets, suspensions) are sold at original purchase price, credits received for selling them are added to player’s account. Modules of KV-3 tier 6, not fitting the KV-3 as tier 7 are also sold and credits go to player’s account;
All modules from KV-3 tier 6 fitting other vehicles (radio, engine, guns) are saved in the depot, same goes for all shells that can be used for its guns;
Any crew member in the barracks or in a tank, who possesses the KV-3 tier 6 skills, gets the ability to be used in the KV-3 tier 7 without any changes or losses;
Statistics earned on the KV-3 go to the T-150 without any changes or losses, all achievements are preserved;
Players get the T-150 as tier 6 researched with the KV-3 as tier 7 available in it’s tech tree. Case 2. KV-3 is in the garage at the time of the substitution (update release). All the rules as mentioned in Case 1 apply along with the following ones:
