"Convoy" Game Mode
"Convoy" Game Mode
In Convoy, you will find yourself on September 15, 1916, on the pastures of the Somme, where the world faced the devastating war machines for the first time. This day paved the road to a new world—the world of tanks.
"Convoy" Game Mode.
In “Convoy” mode, players will be driving an entirely new vehicle type: four-wheeled Lanchester armored cars, armed with fast-firing machine guns. These vehicles are incredibly fast and mobile, and the battles between them are high-speed intense dogfights.
Players will be divided into two teams of seven. One team will look to protect the Mark I as it moves across a World War I battlefield, providing cover and repairs to the Mark I, while the other team tries to use explosives to stop it in its tracks.
The players will be able to pick up these explosives and repair kits on the battlefield, and additional abilities allowing them to help or hinder the Mark I will also be scattered throughout the map.
This is a timed mode, so jump in your Lanchester armored car, speed your way across the battlefield and see how your team fares against the first great tank!

The Iron Beast
Two teams battle it out in Lanchester armored cars. One team protects the lumbering battle beast known as the Mark I, while the other team races to collect bombs to put it out of action. The Mark I rumbles across the battlefield from point "A" to point "B" -- can one team stop it in time, or will the other team guide it to victory?
The Attackers
For the attacking team, the objective of "Convoy" is to escort the Mark I heavy tank to the enemy base. The tank can't be harmed by enemy fire, so the opposing team will be trying to deliver bombs to the Mark I in attempts to hinder its advance or destroy it. Each successfully delivered bomb reduces the Mark I's hit points by 20 percent and destroys its tracks. Should an enemy Lanchester slip past your defenses and detonate a bomb, locate a nearby Repair Tools pick-up. Head over, grab it, then bring it back to the injured beast so it can resume its triumphant march. If the Mark I reaches the enemy base, you win.
The Defenders
For the defending team, victory is achieved one of two ways: by destroying the enemy's Mark I, or otherwise preventing it from reaching your base within the time limit. Do not try to impede its advance by ramming: the beastly Mark I will snap up a Lanchester like it's a cookie. Use your wits and keep a watchful eye on the minimap: locate and pick up a bomb, then deliver it to the Mark I. Again, a delivered bomb explodes and immobilizes the Mark I, as well as taking 20% of its HP. If you fail to detonate the bomb, don't linger; move to grab a new one and try again. Time is of the essence! Do everything it takes to prevent the attackers from repairing their Mark I.
Good to Know
- The Lanchester armored car with a unique WWI crew will be automatically added to your account when you log into the game.
- Pn battle, all players have unlimited respawns. Therefore, do not focus on destroying enemy vehicles, but rather on fulfilling your main objective.
- If either a vehicle carrying a bomb or the Repair Tools are destroyed, the "payload" is dropped, but other players can pick it up again for a certain amount of time. If no one retrieves it, the payload reappears where it was originally found.
