Well we have a new world cup soccer mode and I noticed you get Gigi Buffon again as the grand prize. However this time he comes with BIA as well as sixth sense, so does this mean all existing Gigi Buffons are being upgraded? Also will the art work be any different and what's a unique style? Is it Camo, artwork etc.

 

By reaching a team rating of 100, you will earn:

• Commander Buffon
• Unique Style
• Buffon is the Idol Medal

The Grand Prize

For completing the entire collection, you will receive the ultimate prize: the Italian icon Gianluigi “Gigi” Buffon ready to take command with a unique voiceover and the Brothers in Arms and Sixth Sense perks!

So get prepared to fill your boots with collectible cards this summer! Just make sure you have a little time to tear yourself away from football, both virtual and real.

Or do we get 2x Buffon's

[Profanisaurus]

I'm assuming we get 2 x Gigis one with both skills and the one we have.

 

Not sure there are that many keepers in the Italian line (see what I've done there).

Yeah, I already have two Italian crews and both are on their 4th skills (Hooray for FL and crew boosters). I decided to keep the P43 tre (T7) as it's maybe the best all-around T7 MT I've played (no one aspect of it stands out but everything is really solid). and eventually I'll probably keep the Standard B or Prog 65 (kind of dropped that grind hoping for buffs at some point... will just be doing a little bit of Standard B once in a while for now).

 

I guess if you ALSO wanted to keep the T4? Or both the T9 and TX?

[FramFramson]

Oh wait!

 

The new Buffon can actually be assigned to ANY NATION:

 

[Profanisaurus]

I have the 4, 6 and 8.  6 is to fix the win rate.  I did quite like the 7 and may buy it back.  9 is awaiting a sale before purchase, ideally after I have the tier 6 back to a decent level.

 

One crew 1st skill, one about to hit 3rd, one chasing 4th.

Ohhh really?

I wasn't going to bother trying for it, but if its any nation then I think its worth a go.

Can't find any pictures of the unique camo, so no idea what that looks like yet.

[Profanisaurus]

That is... certainly a striking camo.

Well that's worth farming then, since u can put it in any nation and has free bia.
Basically a female crew, of which i have 3 left so getting him means I can kit out a full set of crew for a tank. Naisu meme.
