Iron Zenith Briefing
Oct.21.2020 BY WC:RA
The 4.16 iOS update has just been released and IRON ZENITH has been tentatively scheduled to begin on Friday, October 23rd barring any technical issues in the 4.16 update.
WHAT’S NEW?
- NEW UNIT: Choose between anti-helicopter or anti-fixed-wing equipment loadouts for the Prowler IFV, then use its high minefield resistance to launch a tactical strike against base defenses. If any battles come down to the wire, rest assured knowing your Spartan will upon destruction to pick up your win.
- LIGHT VEHICLE MAPS. The Light Vehicle season is upon us! Bring your best Light Vehicle platoons for mid to high level maps.
- EVENT OBJECTIVES. If your alliance claims 20 or more Prowler IFV blueprints, earn a free equipment blueprint for the Prowler IFV! Earn a resource prize by scoring a top 200 personal leaderboard rank.
- THE STEEL PEAK. The Vajras twins are capturing civilians, putting them into a brutal training regime followed by forced labor. The camps are patrolled by helicopters and swarming with heavily armed guards, so take both out at once to liberate those prisoners, Commander.
Begins Friday, October 23rd @ 9AM PDT
Ends Tuesday, October 27th @ 9AM PDT
Store Closes Wednesday, October 28th @ 9AM PDT.
Good Luck!

REWARDS
Those in the Beginner, Mid, and Vet Tiers may choose from a selection of the best Unit blueprints in Rogue Assault. Those in the Elite Tier may select the Prowler IFV Anti-Air Light Vehicle.
With a range of anti-aircraft and helicopter-killer loadouts, squads of Prowler IFVs can quickly clear the skies before unloading their cargo of Spartans to take out ground forces. While their turret mounted rocket pods can’t penetrate most ground vehicle armor or reinforced concrete, they are deadly to aerial targets.

- If you leave your Alliance for any reason while the event is still active, even if you join again right away, your claim will not count and you will not be eligible for any prizes your Alliance may earn.
- Blueprints claimed via an offer will still count toward your Alliance’s total
- Even if a player does not claim the Prowler IFV Blueprint during the event, they will still qualify for the prizes their alliance earns provided they stayed in the Alliance for the duration of the event
