To recieve medals you must be nominated by two people for every medal they choose to nominate you for. Once nominated a random group of three people will pass a final judgement to determine if the canidate gets the medal or not. No material medal is rewarded yet, although we're working on it, as of now it is just the cyber version and bragging rights.

 

"For heroic or Meritorious Achievement of Service, in connection with Operations Against an Opposing Armed Force."

 

This medal is usually awarded to someone who performs a small act on the battlefield that swings the tide of the battle to their direction. It could be a simple lucky shot at a key opponent, or a stealthy bunker that allows teammates to advance on the objective.

 

"For Heroism by those serving with the US Army in any capacity that Involves the Voluntary Risk of Life under conditions Other Than Those of Conflict with an Opposing Armed Force."

 

This medal is awarded to players who make an aggresive move on the field that helped their team acheive victory. It could be an opening break in speedball past the 50 line. Or running straight up the middle under a hail of fire in woodsball.

 

"Superior Meritorious Service in a Duty of Great Responsibility
while Assigned to a Joint Activity."

 

Awarded for a player that stood their ground when the heart of the enemy attack was upon him. This medal is hard to earn in speedball, however surviving a bunker assualt I would consider valid. In woodsball its much easier to award. A player holding a important bunker or flank when being attacked by multiple people would merit this award.

 

For Gallantry in Action Against an Opposing Armed Force.

 

Exceptionally Meritorious Service in a Duty of
Great Responsibility.

 

Extraordinary Heroism in Connection with Military Operations Against an
Opposing Armed Force.

 

For Conspicuous Gallantry and Intrepidity at the Risk of Life, Above and Beyond the Call of Duty, in Action Involving Actual Conflict with an Opposing Armed Force.
