The dirty, dirty business of paying to win in free-to-play games is something Wargaming.net can't stomach anymore as they move to drop any real money purchases for items that would 'grant an advantage'.
World of Tanks will be purged of these offending items, and instead embrace what Wargaming.net is calling a "free-to-win" strategy. Basically, real money can only buy cosmetic items... like gold tanks.

Logging in with a Wargaming.net account now plugs you into "all other Wargaming-related projects," including partner and fan websites reachable via OpenID authentication. Sounds fancy.
