Commanders,
The gates of the Assembly Shop are opening again! This time, you have an opportunity to build the Durendal, a brand-new Tier X French support medium tank with exceptional mobility, quick two-shell bursts, and a sharp hit-and-run rhythm.
Every Durendal assembled will come with the numbered "Intesa" 3D style.
Read on and learn how to make the Durendal yours!

Remember that the basic operating principle of the Assembly Shop is "First come, first served," so be prepared! The event may finish before the scheduled end time if all vehicles are assembled.
As long as the Assembly Shop is active, you can enter it any time from your Garage.
Invest credits, gold, Free XP, bonds, universal fragments, and national fragments to build the Durendal.
Combine resources in any ratio that works for your account. Blueprint fragments have investment limits.
Each investment fills the assembly progress bar. Reach 100% to receive the vehicle.
Resources are deducted immediately when invested, but you can reclaim or redistribute them during the event with the Return Resources button.
If you do not complete the vehicle before the event ends, all invested resources are automatically returned to your account.
There will only be 85,000 vehicles available for assembly in EU, 70,000 in CN, 10,000 in NA, and 8,500 in ASIA/APAC.
Resources are deducted as soon as you add them to the Assembly Shop, but you can reclaim or redistribute them at any time by clicking the Return Resources button. If you don't craft the Durendal by the end of the event, all the resources you invested will return to your account automatically.
The Durendal is not a medium tank that waits for the fight to come to it. This Tier X French support vehicle is built to create openings, appear where the enemy line is weakest, and leave before the return fire arrives. It is fast and dangerous, but not forgiving. The Durendal rewards players who read the battle, choose short engagements, and avoid armor-first trades.
Unique Autoloader. The Durendal delivers 700 HP in 0.5 s with a quick two-shell burst. The full four-shell clip offers 1,400 HP of potential damage.
Exceptional Mobility. With a 60 km/h top speed and 27.1 h.p./t specific power, the Durendal is one of the fastest medium tanks, even without Turbocharger.
Flexible Survivability. The thin hull and 1,800 HP pool make careless trades risky, but the turret and 9° of gun depression can help in selected hull-down positions.
Play the Second Line. Support active flanks and avoid becoming the first vehicle spotted.
Relocate Early. When the flank slows down or enemies turn their guns toward you, change angles instead of forcing a bad trade.
Think Like a Raider. Borrow a Bourrasque-like rhythm. Appear from unexpected angles, strike quickly, relocate, and repeat before the enemy can adjust.
Recommended Equipment. Prioritize gun handling and vision. Vertical Stabilizer, Improved Aiming, and Coated Optics are safe choices; use Improved Rotation Mechanism or Turbocharger for a more flexible build.
The Durendal is exclusive to this Assembly Shop event, so use the chance to add this fast French support medium to your collection!
Roll Out!
