Win 5 battles -- you can finish these in less than an hour in Co-op if you have good teams.

Earn a half-million credits -- oh, would that I had the Missouri! However, econ flags help. I'll have to see which of my ships are the better credit farmers. I'm thinking probably my Cleveland will do the job. 

Cause 50,000 hitpoints of damage with main battery, destroy one ship, win the battle -- probably can do this OK in my Cleveland too, if not then I'll try the North Carolina.

Believe it or not, yes. I just quit a game and started another after I was killed. I had three sunk bots to my credit and my team was only down by me. I came back from the second game only to find that they somehow had lost.

Did you notice the expiration date of that T3 mission? It is set to expire 15.02 which means 15 February. That doesn't make sense at all! Why start such a simple mission at this time unless they want peeps to exercise the Vampire in their port...

Dunno... i was thinking maybe it was a mistake... because i always check missions/challenges before I start - nothing was there. After I return from a battle, there's the mission... already racking up points... maybe that's the "mystery"?

Well... got 5000 fXP and 24hrs premium.

 

You're right about the date @Khafni wonder if it got loose somehow, not intended to be active?

I just tried it and it seems legit. But no notice on the web page and an 8 week duration seem off!?! If WG is doing this for new players coming in on Steam then kudos to them!

I noted the expiration date and looked at the requirements for each of the stages.

Only the last one could take any significant time as I don't always do 50K damage.  My averages are almost all under that, but I do get 50K plus battles often enough that it will happen.

The final reward includes a Shipsmas flag, so I think this is intended.

I'm taking it as gift, decent rewards from relatively easy accomplishments and generous deadline.

Had fun with these.  One spin in the Kidd got me the second task, and one spin in Iowa got the third, but barely.  Did only 80k damage, had no kills, but my fire on the Shima got the last tick at the end.... :cap_win:

P.S.  Got 250 doubloon and 5k Free Xp

What, if anything, can you buy with 250 doubloons?

You can use that for premium consumables, some types of camp and also to unmount modules from ships when you sell them instead of selling the module.

Did you mean camo rather than camp?

Now that you mention it, I think I saw a couple of perma-camos here and there for less than that - XP, dispersion, stealthiness stuff for my new Leander.

Coop or Scenarios is a good place to farm damage if you have difficulty in randoms.

I didn't even know that I was close to finishing this campaign until I got back from a Scenario and the crates were waiting for me. It's easy to accomplish the mission requirements in scenarios.
