Medals (EU2012)
Revision as of 07:46, 13 December 2013 by Arrow Quivershaft (talk | contribs)
- 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.
Names and Types of Medals
- Urban Combat Badge
- Defender's Medal
- International Service Cross
- Council Medal of Honor
- +1 Aim and Will for each mission completed with no soldier deaths, up to a maximum of +10.
- Bonus is dependent upon when soldier is awarded and each mission awarded soldier participates in. If awarded soldier only participates in two missions out of X missions, the soldier will only receive +1 Aim & Will on the second mission. The awarded soldier must participate in eleven missions without any soldier deaths to receive maximum benefit (+10 Aim & Will).
- Provides 10 Aim and Critical Chance if not within 7 tiles of an allied unit.
- This offers a much more static benefit, and its quite useful. Given this is a squad tactics game, I'd suggest hanging it on your MEC or shotgunner Assault, since the they tend to range the furthest of any of your agents.
- Maximum of 2 medals. Complete 3 Special missions?
- +1 Aim and Will for each mission completed with no soldier deaths, up to a maximum of +10.
- Star of Terra
