Ka-chi
Am i the only one a bit sad that we can never get this vehicle back? i understand that it's an event vehicle and all, and exclusivity, but even the rarest vehicle is sold in the market at least.

the maus re-appeared a few times, and so did other vehicles, i only joined the game last year ish and i really feel sad about not being able to pilot a boat on my favorite game mode.

the tank feels unique and i really get bummed out when i grind japan and realize i can't have it, especially seeing as their tree seems a bit small.

in short, if any dev listens. i'd love to have a chance to redeem it again.

I for one am glad it's unobtainable

Only the best seal clubbing vehicle in game, the only reason it's still 2.0 in realistic is because people barely see it now

People shoot it in the front which is just a large empty space.

It´s hard to kill frontally because it´s Pontoons makes it stupidly resistant and renders HEAT useless.
On top of that, you have a well spaced 7 man crew and a potent, fast loading 47mm gun (which has a low speed stabilizer btw.).

And any AP shell with sub 60mm of pen such as Italian, French, and German guns lose enough velocity after hitting the front pontoon to not be able to pierce the front plate. That coupled the front+side+rear HEAT and HE resistant hull makes it quite the menace for new players

He was available during the Summer event via Loot boxes, which I can´t recommend unless you have millions of SL to spare.

unfortunately, i my highest BR is like 7.7 and after i saw videos of youtubers who could afford to gamble getting basically nothing from 60 boxes i realized it's not realistic to expect something from a lootbox

and after seeing the comments above i see why its probably for the best to not have it, seeing as gaijin won't even solve the puma problem that plagues the early BRs.

I don't buy the loot boxes for vehicles. I need the boosters and backups that cost GE if you don't get free ones. Also I like some of the wagers.
However I did get a Merkava Mk2B and a M8A1GMC so far from snowmen crates.
The Ka-Chi allows me to play events which is nice since I am not very good at ground but can grind out 40k if I play a lot of ground. (all I want is around 1k per battle) Since I can do naval in around 10 missions. I got the Ka-Chi using other low tier/BR event vehicles. I think I can't recall if it was mission point event or a crafting event.

any chance you recall how many boxes you've opened so far?

When ever I am out of boosters I buy 10 snowmen. Fewer then 100 so far. (between 70 and 80 but I was not really keeping track)
I have spent a large amount of SL on new vehicles, putting them in crew slots and buying expert crew and up grading modules since event began. I had 71 million SL at start and have 63 million currently. And of course have earned SL along the way.
I am not advocating buying the snowmen to get vehicles. I am after the boosters/backups/wagers that you can only get during these events.

So I needed more boosters and spent 1.2million for 20. Got a crate for a vehicle I already owned and got 1 million SL instead. (K-8 no 13 premium event sub chaser)
Out of 20 snowmen I got 1 booster. But I got more then my 1.2 million SL back so I'll buy another 20

So I bought 20 more (at the start i was buying 10 at a time now I buy 20) I got my SL back (mostly 1185000 from 1200000) 4 boosters I can use. So I paid 150000 for the boosters that would have cost 500 GE without the crates. And I will buy 20 more when I use up these boosters
