Start Your Road to New Year!

We're excited to announce the launch of a new and completely free marathon—Road to New Year! Complete easy missions and campaign tasks during the October and November updates and claim the final prize on December 1: mysterious icy battleship Lugdunum—your first big gift among many others in the upcoming Christmas update. Full details below!

Traveling the Road to New Year 

To advance along the Road to New Year, you'll need to collect Ship Parts. These are available for free exclusively through campaigns (no Admiralty Backing required!) and the Road to New Year special mission. To obtain Lugdunum, you must collect a total of 20,000 Ship Parts.

Here's how many Ship Parts you can earn during the first stage, from October 6 to November 3:

• "The Last Sumner" campaign: 6,000 Ship Parts (without the Admiralty Backing)
• Road to New Year mission: 4,000 Ship Parts

You can earn up to 42,500 Ship Parts by the marathon's end on January 19—well above what's needed for the ship, so you can still catch up even in the final stage. We'll share the exact Ship Part earnings for the remaining stages once the respective updates are on the horizon.

To check your progress, go to the Road to New Year section of the main menu. Note that Lugdunum will become available starting December 1, so if you manage to collect 20,000 Ship Parts earlier, you'll need to wait a bit—though you'll certainly have our respect for that dedication!

Here's a breakdown of all the rewards waiting for you on the Road to New Year:

• 2,000 Ship Parts: 2x Santa Level 1 crates
• 5,000 Ship Parts: 1,000 Merry Tokens*
• 7,000 Ship Parts: 24x Santa in Blue camouflages
• 9,000 Ship Parts: 2x Santa Level 2 crates

About Lugdunum

This mysterious battleship has emerged straight from the Arctic's icy grip. She's armed with 16 fast-reloading main battery guns, but that's not her only strength. You'll also like her secondary armament, offering an impressive 6 km range, excellent damage per minute, and high chances of setting enemy ships on fire.

Though Lugdunum isn't a bulky ship and has only modest HP and speed, she's highly agile, allowing her to outmaneuver her foes. She's also equipped with strong anti-air defenses and an improved version of Enhanced Secondary Targeting, helping you get the most out of her in extreme situations.

Lugdunum comes with a unique skin that cloaks her in ice from bow to stern.
