> I just finished an explore match and to my surprise I received a new weapon as reward: Thingamabob. Where did that come from? I don’t find it in the GoW database. It must have something to do with the new kingdom release I guess, because it is boosted by submerged allies. Coincidence or not: I gained a level after that match.
