Dear Commanders
We plan to perform a patch update on the server at 11:00(UTC+8) on September 30. The estimated update time is 8 hours.
Details of the update are as follows:
I. New tanks
1. Lorraine 40t, obtainable through 'Glutton on a Palm'.
2. Holt 150 t, obtainable through the following methods:
- Very low chance to obtain from feeding Epsilon in 'Glutton on a Palm'.
- Exchange for 'Crystal Shells'.
3. Sav 20.12.48, obtainable from buying a special pack in the Fall Limited-time Store, her appearance and stats can be seen in the SForce section of R&D.
4. Object 432, obtainable through R&D (this metal maiden has a special R&D method which uses 'Origin Stones' obtained from Petrov Warrant's rewards).
II. Glutton on a Palm: 'Epsilon never acts up' edition!
In order to conduct further study about the Farers, Portia has ordered Commander to gather equipment (S1, S2, S1A, N2-4 Blueprints) and collectibles (Bow Tie, Machine Snake Eye, Bedroom Key) to feed to Epsilon.
Epsilon will evaluate the food and Commander will be rewarded accordingly.
After each feeding, Epsilon's satisfaction will increase based on the food's taste (the more she likes the food, the more points gained).
When her satisfaction reaches its maximum, you will receive the first big reward of the event (this time it's Lorraine 40t).
Epsilon's maximum satisfaction will remain at 1,000, but she will no longer suffer from indigestion. We hope this change will significantly alleviate the difficulty of the event.
All of the changes made to the event are as follows:
1. Removed the indigestion system so Epsilon can be fed continuously.
2. Added an auto-feeding system, which allows Epsilon to be fed 50 times in a row (if the number of equipment or collectibles being used for feeding is lower than 50, the auto-feed will end when the item runs out).
3. When feeding, there is a chance to obtain 'Crystal Shell' (probability and amount dependent on the item used).
4. If Epsilon is fed with 'Architecture Blueprints', aside from getting high satisfaction, you will also be guaranteed to obtain a single 'Incomplete Intelligence' (however, you will not get any other items).
Tap on the 'Crystal Shell' in the Depot to open its exchange store which offers the following items:
1. Badges and backgrounds from past events.
2. New background: Sunflower Plains
3. Time-limited resource packages.
4. Metal maiden: Holt 150 t
Holt 150 t has a very low chance to be obtained directly from feeding Epsilon.
'Crystal Shell' can be exchanged for vouchers in the event store.
Please note that we recommend newbie commanders to refrain from feeding too much equipment to Epsilon as that might have an adverse effect on their progression. If you are completely sure you need a large number of 'Crystal Shells', exchanging with vouchers bought with Gold will be a better method. The most efficient way of gaining Gold is buying the M-Supply.
III. Intelligence Deciphering Event
During the event, a special blasting pool will be available for the Intelligence Deciphering event.
The special blasting pool of Intelligence Deciphering has a higher chance to drop advanced equipment.
Please note that this Intelligence Deciphering event does not have a specific reward like it used to, and is now simply a way to efficiently obtain advanced equipment.
The Intelligence Deciphering blasting pool uses 'Incomplete Intelligence', which can be obtained through the following methods:
1. Guaranteed obtaining when feeding Epsilon with 'Architecture Blueprints' in the Glutton on a Palm.
2. Exchanged for 'Club Certificate' in the event store.
3. Exchanged for 'Tanghulu' in the event store (for a limited number of times).
4. Exchanged for 'Crystal Shell' in the event store (for a limited number of times).
5. Exchanged for 'G-SiSe' in the event store (for a limited number of times).
6. A certain amount can be received from a quest after passing Story Vol.8 'Expedition'.
IV. Additional rewards for purchasing Gold
During the event period, purchasing Gold will grant you a certain number of 'Confidential Files'.
Purchasing 'Small Bag of Gold' grants 6 'Confidential Files' and 690 'Club Certificates'.
Purchasing 'Big Bag of Gold' grants 12 'Confidential Files' and 1290 'Club Certificates'.
Purchasing 'Small Box of Gold' grants 32 'Confidential Files' and 3270 'Club Certificates'.
Purchasing 'Big Box of Gold' grants 64 'Confidential Files' and 6480 'Club Certificates'.
Tap on 'Confidential Files' in the Depot to go to the Underground Bazaar and purchase various resources.
Tap on 'Club Certificates' to open their exchange store which offers the following items:
A. Badges and backgrounds from past events.
B. New background: Rhine Valley Base.
C. Time-limited resources packages.
D. New commander portrait: Dwight.
'Club Certificate' can also be exchanged for vouchers in the event store.

Purchasing 'Small Bag of Gold' grants 2 'Petrov Warrants'
Purchasing 'Big Bag of Gold' grants 2 'Petrov Warrants'
Purchasing 'Small Box of Gold' grants 4 'Petrov Warrants'
Purchasing 'Big Box of Gold' grants 6 'Petrov Warrants'
V. New rewards in 'Hunting Mission'
Added a new item, 'Origin Stone', to the rewards from activating the 'Petrov Warrant' (rewards that were originally in the slots now occupied by Origin Stones will be evenly distributed to the same rewards in other slots).
'Origin Stone' can be used in place of resources in a special R&D method for certain metal maidens.
VI. UI adjustment
As there currently are a large number of event items and collectibles in the game, which are categorized as 'Resources' which negatively impact the convenience of using items in the Depot, the UI of the Depot has been adjusted and a new category 'Event Items' has been added, containing all past event items, which will make finding items to use in the Depot easier.
VII. Bonus Fate Pin from purchasing M-Supply
During the event period, you will receive a Fate Pin for every M-Supply purchase.
VIII. Special packages
A wide variety of packages to be browsed at your leisure. There's always something for you.
Special recruitment will also be available in this update, with newly added metal maidens.
IX. Fall time-limited sales

After this update, the sales opening time will not be dependent on other events and entrance to the shop will appear in the time-limited event section directly. (Please note that after this update, the summer time-limited packages that have not yet been bought will be unpurchasable.)
