New page

Wagers are a way of earning Silver Lions or, more rarely, Golden Eagles in War Thunder. A Wager is essentially a bet. You put down a stake, then try to meet the conditions of the Wager in battles. With most Wagers, you get several chances (so several battles) in which to fulfil the conditions, and the more times you do, the bigger your reward. On the other hand, there is also a pre-determined number of times you can ''fail'' to meet the requirements. If you exceed that, the Wager ends and you get whatever reward you have earned so far.

As with most gambles where a stake is involved, the higher your stake, the more you can possibly win. So obviously, there is a maximum stake as well.

The conditions required to win Wagers are actually the Awards that one can win during battles, which are displayed on the results screen after a game.

The wording one sees in the pop-up when you hover your mouse over a Wager can be a bit confusing, and some details appear to have got lost when translating into English. So the easiect way to explain is to give an example.
