Authorial PRO Battles
Authorial PRO Battles
A new level of control is coming to PRO Battles — the battle creator now has expanded management capabilities.
Password Access
Want a private battle just for your group? Now it’s possible.
In Authorial PRO Battles, you can set a password to enter, share it with participants, and maintain full control over who can join the battle.
When joining, players will see a password entry prompt. The password can be updated or removed at any time using chat commands.
You need to turn on the “Private battle” setting when creating a battle. Then, in the battle chat, enter the /setPassword command. The server will automatically create a password, send it as a message in chat and copy it to your clipboard so it can be sent easily to invited players in any convenient way.
Controls for the battle creator include three basic commands:
- /setPassword creates a password
- /getPassword reminds you of the password and copies it to the clipboard again
- /deletePassword removes the entry limitation, making the battle available in the general list and via a link.
We plan to add even more features for Authorial PRO Battles in the future, to make them a full-fledged tool for tournaments, training sessions, and events, allowing you to create battles according to your own rules and control the flow of the game at every stage, from participant access to the final result.
For the current functionality and list of commands, please refer to the Wiki.
Invite a friend #6
Invite friends to the game and get rewards!
We are launching a new referral event! During this event, you can get rewards for inviting new players or players who stopped playing the game. Also, as the friends you’ve invited complete special missions, you will receive additional bonuses!
Dates: From April 24th 2 AM to June 3rd 2 AM UTC
Let’s get into the details:
How to invite
IMPORTANT: The option to invite new players is only available to accounts created before the start of the event, April 24th 2 AM.
Referrals are players who you invited to the game.
You need to follow these steps to make a new player your referral:
STEP 1 Your rank should be at least Master Sergeant.
STEP 2 You need to enter the game and go to the Missions menu.
STEP 3 There, you need to open the special «Invite a friend» category of missions.
STEP 4 In that section, you need to generate a special invite promo code.
STEP 5 Share this Promocode with people you want to invite to the game and tell them how they can activate it (read below).
IMPORTANT: If you are a player who was invited to the game during this referral event, you cannot generate your own promo code to invite other players.
Who can become your referral
There are two types of players who can become your referrals:
- Players who created their account since April 24th 2 AM.
- Player who last entered the game before March 16th 2 AM UTC.
Pay attention to the fact that in order to activate an invite promo code, a player should have at least Private rank.
Important: A player who generated a promo code to send it to other players cannot activate their own promo code or a Promocode of any other player.
What do I get for inviting players?
- Once you generate your invite promo code, send it to your friends and acquaintances.
- In the special «Invite a friend» category of missions, you will get a set of special missions.
3. Once they activate your promo code, players who have been invited will also get a set of their own special missions in the «Missions from a friend» category. In your «Invite a friend» category you can track how your referrals complete their missions, and thus your missions get completed and you can claim rewards for the efforts of the players you have referred.
Missions for those who invite
There are two types of missions for inviting players. The first type gives you rewards for players who just activated your promo code. The second type gives you rewards once your invited players complete the required missions.
Bonuses for inviting players
Important: An invited player is counted towards mission progress only once they activate your promocode.

Game Mechanics
How to start
LOG IN
To start playing, you need to log in to the mini-game website, using the nickname and password of your game account.
If you are registered in the game using social networks or partner platforms and thus don’t have a password of your account, you need to contact the tech support to get a password for your account.
Fragments
Fragments
The mini-game map consists of numerous fragments, each holding a surprise for you.
But as we know, surprises can be good or bad:
- The good news — you can earn rare prizes. When you conquer a fragment, the reward is sent to a special storage at the checkpoint rather than being credited to your account immediately.
- Each move costs 10 units of energy.
- Along the way, you may encounter special “radioactive fragment” cells. If you land on one, there’s a 50% chance you’ll be sent 2 steps back.
Don’t worry — even if luck isn’t on your side and you get pushed back, you’ll be able to earn the reward again for each fragment field you successfully pass on your way forward!
Checkpoints
Checkpoints – are stations, on which the collected prizes are added to your Tanki account.
A player starts their journey from the 1st checkpoint. The mini-game ends when you reach the 7th checkpoint.
After passing the whole lap, a player reaches the checkpoint. There is a special vault on it to store all the prizes that the player received on these fragments. When visiting a checkpoint, the player can transfer the prizes from the vault to their in-game account.
Moreover, whenever you visit a checkpoint, we add more unique rewards to your vault.

“Needle Gun” AUGMENT FOR HAMMER
Transforms the turret from shotgun into a long-range needle gun with limited ammunition and slower clip reload.
A radical change to the turret’s ammunition and Hammer’s way of usage. Shrapnel shot is replaced with an armor-piercing subcaliber needle. Such needles have significantly higher range and accuracy, and their compactness allows an increase in the number of shots per clip and faster shot reload. Unfortunately, just like with the standard version of the turret, the clip can only be reloaded after fully emptying it.
Due to the limited ammunition and long clip reload, it is recommended to fire in short bursts to avoid leaving too many needles in already destroyed enemy tanks.
Reaching a checkpoint guarantees not only receiving the prizes on your account, but also saves the current progress in the mini-game: even «Radioactive fragments» can’t push you behind a passed checkpoint.
Earn energy, roll the dice, travel about fragments, reach checkpoints, and receive cool prizes! Full speed ahead!
«Tsunami» turret Early Access!
Tsunami arrives in Tanki Online!
Starting April 10th, a new twin-barreled turret, “Tsunami,” arrives in Tanki Online — and you can get it before anyone else as part of a special offer.
Why «Tsunami»?
The name was chosen for a reason: the turret’s mechanics fully reflect its character.
The first shot is like the first wave, and the second is a powerful automatic finishing strike.
You manually fire from the right barrel, and the second shot triggers automatically after a short delay.
Tsunami Features:
- Twin-barreled turret
- Effective at medium and long range
- First shot — manual
- Second shot — automatic, following the first
What’s included in the Early Access bundle: (Price: 7000 Tankoins)
- Tsunami turret in the Mk1 modification
- Raven module for protection from the Tsunami turret
- Legendary Excelsior augment for Tsunami
The special offer will be available till May 22nd, 2 AM UTC.
Important: During Early Access, the developers will closely monitor how the Tsunami performs in battles. If necessary, the turret’s parameters may be adjusted for balance.
By the time of Tanki’s birthday, the Tsunami will become available in the garage for Crystals and will be accessible to all players.

Tanki Classic mass test
We are officially launching the “Tanki Classic” mass test!
During the test, you will be able to get onto separate “Tanki Classic” test servers, if you have purchased one of the early access special offers.
How to get there?
You can get onto “Tanki Classic” only through the announcement window in the main game lobby.
Attention! There are no other ways to get onto the game. Other sites you see on the Internet are scams and are made to steal your account details. You do not need to enter your password to log into the Tanki Classic test servers. If someone asks for your password to access Tanki Classic, it is definitely a scam. Be careful.
You will only have access if you are an early access participant.
How to get Early Access?
The special Early Access offers for “Tanki Classic” were only available for a limited time. With the start of the mass testing phase, we are bringing these special offers back on sale. This is your chance to become a part of the legendary “Tanki Classic” project ahead of everyone else!
Early Access offers are available from rank 8.

What is there in the game?
This is a test version of the game. It is possible to encounter bugs, issues, unfinished features, and anomalies.
During the test, we will restart the game several times and even temporarily pause the testing process.
We will also wipe the test server database several times, which will reset all your progress.
For testing Tanki Classic, we use new server infrastructure. This may cause unstable server performance during the first weeks of testing. We will be configuring and fixing everything.
Is this early access already?
No. Early access will be announced separately, 2 weeks before the game is released. You will be able to get access to the game earlier than anybody else and progress your account earlier than others.
What is the “Development Plans” section on the Tanki Classic website?
Alongside the launch of Tanki Classic testing, we are adding a special “Development Plans” section to the project’s website. From now on, this section will be the primary, first-source of information on the development of the Tanki Classic project.
There, we will announce the key development areas of the project earlier than anywhere else.
Please note: the presented plans reflect our current goals and may be adjusted based on your feedback and voting results.
In the future, we will launch the promised polls for the game mechanics. You, the players, will define the future of “Tanki Classic!”
Feedback can be left on the forum topic of this news.
