Winter 2016 Event

Introduction

The Winter 2016 Event Sortie! Operation Rei-Go is planned to start on February 10th, 2016. It has been confirmed that the event will be inspired off of Operation Rei-Go which was a one day battle that took place along the Mindoro Island where an IJN counterattack was conducted in the winter on December 26th, 1944.
