First, I know what you're thinking: the French have tanks? Yes, they do. In fact, they have so many, Wargaming is bringing 28 (that's 'vingt-huit', pronounced like 'hweet') French tanks to World of Tanks: Xbox 360 Edition as part of the Vive La France free DLC for all Xbox Live Gold members.

"Behind some of the most iconic and powerful tanks to ever grace the field of battle, France has contributed tremendously to the storied history of armored vehicle warfare. Vive La France pays tribute to the country's contribution with the addition of 28 all-new vehicles into the game, including such iconic tanks as the Foch 155, Renault FT, the high tier AMX 50 100, and Premium FCM 50 t to tank destroyers like the Foch and Premium FCM 36 Pak 40, each of these vehicles brings a unique experience and playstyle."
"Fast and nimble, but packing surprisingly strong firepower, the French tanks will provide players with the opportunity to experience first-hand what truly makes these tanks formidable foes on the battlefield. Wargaming likes it so much that just by logging on, you will find your tier I Renault FT and its free garage slot in your garage."

Additionally, the update comes with two new maps incorporated into the rotation: Karelia and Pearl River.
"Players who enjoy taking on battles with friends will see the Platoon system has been adjusted to better deal with wait times and tier matching. And the XP multipliers of Premium vehicles have been raised on every tier -- up by as much as half on lower tiers."
A wealth of packages have been added to tanks, most notably the addition of a 6 pdr gun to several skins currently available. Maps have been tinkered with, too. Read the whole patch notes here.
So grab your croissant, pop open a bottle of Champagne and treat yourself to all the wonders of French artillery in World of Tanks.
