First Warrior
Tank ID 65841
Vehicle description
Wargaming Tankopedia
His name was once on everyone’s lips, and legends of his deeds were told in every corner of the world. The First among great warriors, he embodied strength and wisdom. But time, the relentless keeper, did its work. The students surpassed the master, and memory of him faded, almost to be forgotten. But is it possible to dim the sun? The First Warrior would not let his legend disappear. From the ashes of brutal World of Tanks Championship International battles, he rose again, clad in black and gold armor, with a winner's trophy and a loyal manticore by his side. Now, nothing will stand in his way as he forges a new legend.
