Now, I don't have Midway, but I do have the T4, T6, and T8 carriers of USN and IJN. Why the prices are different, I have no idea...perhaps the Russian text gives a clue? Looks like the Sell button doesn't work on PTS, fails on a technical issue, but, that's probably not an important thing for PTS...

843 [HINON] Warped_1 [HINON] Members 2,295 posts 22,175 battles Report post #3 Posted December 30, 2018 It is supposed to be compensation for XP and monies spent in game. Likely, different modules make up the cost difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

89 [STW-A] Seaman_Rookie Members 269 posts Report post #5 Posted December 30, 2018 I cannot read or speak Russian, but based on past WarGaming announcements, I can make a guess: For the question: If you have a Langley, how much XP would you need to get a Ranger? I think the answer would be 68,000. And the total credit cost would be 7.85 million. So for the captain with a Langley, a Bogue, and a Ranger in version 7.12, on arrival of update 8.0, I would anticipate 1. A refund of the XP difference between 7.12 Langley --> Bogue --> Ranger vs. the XP needed for 8.0 Langley --> Ranger. The refund would be in free XP 2. A refund of the credit difference between 7.12 Langley --> Bogue --> Ranger vs. the credits needed for 8.0 Langley --> Ranger. The refund would be in free XP. 3. Any silver XP on the Bogue will be transferred to the Erie. (Tier I ship of the same nation) 4. The option to sell cvs, higher tiers before lower tiers, to receive the credit and free XP amounts as listed above. (I think there is a typo for the XP on the Hosho-- missing a "0") 5. Option to sell is during update 8.0, but expires for the next update on 21.02.19 (I don't think it's mentioned in the cyrillic, but with the cv modules in 8.0 being so different from the 7.12 version, I would expect automatic selling of all cv modules at full credit prices on the update. -- just my speculation) Now comes the fun part, where someone who can actually read Russian can tell me below how close I am :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All of the old Premium Tier VIII aircraft carriers will be replaced by new Premium Tier VIII aircraft carriers with accumulated XP and Commander's specializations transferred. Premium aircraft carriers Saipan and Kaga will be replaced with the new Premium aircraft carriers Saipan and Kaga, that have been moved to Tier VIII. Again, all accumulated XP and Commander's specializations will be transferred to the new aircraft carriers. A special category, Aircraft Carriers, will be added to the Inventory to display all of the aircraft carriers you've researched and purchased. If you don't like the new gameplay or would like to research the entire branch from the beginning once again, you can go to this category and exchange the available researchable aircraft carriers for credits and Free XP. Also, you can sell Premium aircraft carriers for their full price in doubloons. Please note: it will be possible to exchange researchable aircraft carriers starting from higher tiers. For example, if you want to convert Ranger, you won't be able to keep higher-tier ships, e.g. Midway, on your account." https://worldofwarships.com/en/news/public-test/bulletin-080/ Edited December 30, 2018 by ExploratorOne 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
