Commanders!
The holiday season is slowly coming and with it various gifts, contests and events. The main one of these is an event called Icebreak, which features various camouflages and decals loosely tied by the concept of winter, mountains and real-life units from these states. And today, we want to tell you more about it.
The Icebreak camouflage is of course the titular one but we also added the Belgian winter camouflage along with two Belgian-themed decals:
Belgian Rhino real-life emblem
Belgian Dragon real-life emblem
Both these emblems are based on their real-life counterparts seen on vehicles belonging to the Belgian Medium Brigade.
Next we have three Bundesheer decals that are based on emblems seen on various vehicles of the Austrian Panzerbataillon 14. These are:
Reaper
Concorde
Palm
And, staying in Europe, there will be two Dutch decals and a flag:
Dutch Bull decal and flag (belonging to the 43rd Mechanized Brigade of the Royal Netherlands Army)
Dutch Badger decal (belonging to the 44th Armoured Infantry Battalion of the Royal Netherlands Army)
We also have two Swiss camouflages for you, both based on experimental digital designs, as seen on a Swiss Leopard 2 MLU in the Full-Reuenthal military museum.
Norway is represented by the Ragnarokk decal, as seen on a Norwegian Leopard 2A4.
Moving eastwards, we have the Belarusian camouflage as well as the Chinese (Winter Digital) camouflage waiting. Both are common patterns currently in use.
The Rasputitsa avatar represents the realities of early winter European exercises (or warfare).
And, last but not least, we have the American, mountain-themed Shield of Vermontdecal for you. This emblem belongs to the 172nd Cavalry Regiment of the U.S. Army and is based on their long service history. The motto is based on the famous 1863 Civil War order of Union General Sedgwick: "Put the Vermonters ahead and column closed up."
This event is now available in Armored Warfare.
See you on the battlefield!
