World of Tanks Update 9.3 is live today
World of Tanks Update 9.3 adds more tanks (because of course it does), tweaks the rules to make life harder on the trolls, and the first Strongholds gameplay adjustment.
The tanks are of the light variety and include the T37, M41, Walker Bulldog, and T49. It also includes the Spahpanzer Ru 251, the Soviet LTTB, and T54 Lightweight.
To promote better sportsmanship, those who rage quit before their tank explodes or refuse to participate in the match will be penalized. The specific penalties have not be described so you'll have to play to find out.
Finally in the Strongholds game, Legionnaires will be able to participate in Strongholds without joining a clan first among other changes.
You'll also get a batch of graphical enhancements applied to destruction, and the Garage has been redesigned.
