Is it possible to just wait to third week if you only need the Iron Duke to grind faster? My understanding is that if you do all three weeks of them, when the British BBs release, you'll be ready to start on the Tier 5 British BB. And if you don't, then you'll start at Tier 3 anyway in 3 weeks. I could be reading it wrong, of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
332 hoom Beta Testers 2,580 posts 4,750 battles Report post #17 Posted August 13, 2017 The official notes could have explained that the Blueprints were in the form of a Flag I was looking through the Honor to Heroes, saw there was a Flag but the notes said a Blueprint & I was confused by this Also the description for the Flag talks about Iron Duke not Bellerophon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
67 Defiler_of_Reds Members 522 posts Report post #18 Posted August 13, 2017 Yeah, it's not like reading the news article explains anything. "Captains, As you are no doubt aware, a new branch of British Battleships is coming to World of Warships. To celebrate, we've got something special for you—not one, not two, but three weeks chock-full of missions for Tier IV+ vessels. As a special reward, you will also be able to unlock special blueprint Commemorative flags for some of the new British Battleships, allowing you to unlock the ships and get them without spending any XP or Credits!" See, completely obtuse. No one would have any idea of what slogging through 3 three weeks of missions is going to get them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
332 hoom Beta Testers 2,580 posts 4,750 battles Report post #19 Posted August 13, 2017 Wait, that does say Flags What article is it from? https://worldofwarships.com/en/news/common/up-the-irons/ says Quote British battleships are coming! Take on a trilogy of mission chains for the rest of the month and acquire ship blueprints. Collect all three blueprints to earn some British battleships and jump up the new British battleship tree when it’s released! Blueprint 1: Tier III HMS Bellerophon + Port Slot Blueprint 2: Tier IV HMS Orion + Port Slot Blueprint 3: Tier V HMS Iron Duke + Port Slot + Iron Duke Flag When Update 0.6.10 arrives, the blueprints will be swapped out for the prizes above! Note it only says you get the Iron Duke Flag on the 3rd mission & doesn't say here anything about the Flag representing the blueprints -> confusing as Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

97 [DD214] Seamus_44 Members 816 posts 45,253 battles Report post #21 Posted August 13, 2017 Not that hard to understand: 1) Complete the first 3 sections of the mission and you get the blueprint flag for that mission's ship, one mission each week for 3 different flags. 2) When the UK BBs come out, exchange your blueprints for the ships you earned and a free port slot. 3) You get the Iron Duke flag if you finished that mission.
