The Warhammer 40,000 War Chests have returned to World of Tanks Modern Armor for a limited period, bringing themed commanders, emblems, inscriptions, and rare vehicles into the loot pool. This drop event is accessible through the in-game Store and major storefronts including the PlayStation Store and the Microsoft Store. If you want these items, act while the event is active: the special sale window determines which seasonal content appears in each chest.
Each chest guarantees a baseline reward: a bonus of 40 Gold credited on opening. Beyond that, chests can yield a variety of items: 2D and 3D commanders, unique emblems, thematic inscriptions, premium tanks and vehicle slots, as well as resource drops like Free XP, Gold, and Silver. For clarity, a drop table is the list of possible items and their chances; consult it before purchasing so you understand the odds for each category.
What the War Chests contain and how odds work
The curated rewards in every Warhammer 40,000 War Chest are split across categories with defined probabilities. Below are the published drop rates that apply per chest opening. These percentages reflect the chance of receiving an item from each category and should guide your expectations when you buy single chests or bundles.
- 2D standard commander: 40.40%
- 3D hero commander: 13.40%
- Emblems: 29.18%
- Inscriptions: 11.22%
- Free XP: 4.40%
- Gold (additional rare drops): 0.01%
- Silver: 44.80%
- Premium tank + vehicle slot: 1.39%
Premium tanks, duplicate rules, and sample outcomes
All premium tanks included in this event have equal drop odds within the premium category. If you obtain a premium vehicle you already own, the game refunds you with 50% of the tank’s value in Gold rather than granting a duplicate. This compensation rule ensures players receive measurable value even when a duplicate appears. Note that the content pool is seasonal: the precise list of commanders, emblems, inscriptions, and vehicles shown in the current drop table may change in later events.
Example chest contents
To illustrate likely results, here are example outcomes you might see when opening a Warhammer 40,000 War Chest: Sister Lucia emblems plus 40,000 Silver and 40 Gold; multiple “All Shall Rot” inscriptions along with Silver and the guaranteed 40 Gold; a single 3D hero commander such as Patricia Laserian plus 40 Gold; a large Free XP award combined with Silver and 40 Gold. These examples reflect the event variety rather than guaranteed bundles and are useful for setting expectations.
How to buy, bundle pricing, and storefront rules
War Chests are sold in multiple bundle sizes across platforms: 1 chest for $2.99, 5 chests for $14.99, 15 chests for $39.99, and 30 chests for $74.99. Purchases can be made in the game client as well as through the PlayStation Store and the Microsoft Store. Prices are shown in USD; regional pricing and availability can vary, so check your local storefront. Important rules: these chests are non-refundable and each chest is designed to contain item groups worth at least the chest purchase price.
Standalone DLC bundles and time-limited availability
In addition to the randomized chests, two dedicated fighters tied to the Warhammer 40,000 event are offered as standalone DLC bundles on Xbox. These bundles are time-limited and can be found on the Xbox Store through Thursday, May 28th. If you prefer direct purchases over randomized rewards, the standalone bundles provide a guaranteed way to add specific commanders or content to your collection while the offer lasts.
Finally, remember that seasonal content can rotate: open chests during the current sale window to secure items from the present drop table. For more details on individual commanders, emblem artwork, or vehicle specs, consult the in-game descriptions and official storefront listings.
