More gifts from Santa are on their way, too: for the week that runs from December 11 through 17, the daily reward in the Store will also include a Santa Level 1 crate in addition to the usual common crate.

Ice Crowns: Prizes for Everyone

The dedicated event currency is your skeleton key (wait, that might be a throwback to the Halloween blog... but anyway, let's keep going!) to a wide variety of holiday rewards. You can get them the following ways: 

• Up to 4,500 Ice Crowns for completing the campaign, with up to 4,500 more if you have an active Admiralty Backing.
• Up to 3,000 Ice Crowns through the Advent Calendar.
• 500 Ice Crowns are included in "The Ladies' Favor" free bundle.
• Most Santa Crate bundles you acquire will grant you additional Ice Crowns, just like the Early Access random bundles.

Collecting all the Ice Crowns available for free plus completing the campaign after purchasing the Admiralty Backing will net you as many as 12,500 Ice Crowns—enough to obtain one of our biggest prizes! The range of items that you can acquire using the Ice Crowns includes, but is not limited to:

• American Legendary Tier battleship Ohio with a unique skin
• German Tier VII Premium battleship Anhalt with a unique skin
• Pan-American Tier V Premium destroyer Juruá
• Lady of the Cold & Queen of the Deep Commander guises
• Holiday Collection '24 crates

Advent Calendar

Three weeks of daily tasks—and daily rewards from December 11—with the ability to recover missed days for 100 doubloons each. You'll have 2 more weeks to catch up if you missed something, and the King of Winter guise, applicable to all nations' Commanders, serves as the ultimate reward! We've already covered this feature in detail here, including a full prize breakdown.
