Difference between revisions of "Medals (EU2012)"

Revision as of 23:00, 6 December 2013

Medals can now be assigned to soldiers on the Enemy Within DLC. They appear as a new option in the Barracks menu.
Medals will be received upon completing certain objectives on missions. There is a cap on the number of medals that can be present on the entire pool of live soldiers.
The name of the medals can be changed and there is a choice between 2 options that will increase the soldier's stats upon receiving it.
There is a limit of the number of medals that can be issued. However, if soldiers with medals are killed the medal will be available again for awards 2 missions afterwards.
Will bonus from medals does not affect psi combat.
- Thus, if your soldiers are immune to panic due to Defender's Medals or Neural Damping, you can consider ignoring medal effects that improve will.
