The rhythm of the year
1940 runs a four-season calendar with weekly rotations inside each season. The events that matter are the ones that pay Catalysts, exclusive liveries and aircraft blueprints — everything else is filler for logging in anyway.
The weekly rotation
- Monday: Supply convoy — double alloy on convoy stages.
- Wednesday: Wingman day — co-op bonus scoring.
- Friday: Boss rush weekend — catalysts on the elite track.
- Sunday: Community challenge — server-wide tally for shared rewards.
The seasonal anchors
Season openers bring the battle-pass refresh — the best value purchase in the game. Mid-season double-XP weeks are the time to grind unlocks. Season finales run the championship cup, where the real prizes live.
What is worth your time
Catalyst events first, blueprint events second, cosmetic events if you enjoy them. Skip pure-credit events — credits flow freely from normal play and the time cost is real.
Australian timing notes
Events reset at 9am AEST — conveniently outside work hours for early starters. The weekend cups run Saturday afternoons local time, which is why the Australian community fields outsized cup attendance.
