Let's see. Sequential is very popular. It is based on the Board Game. Escalating. VERY popular. Again, based around the board game. Adjacent is based on the board game as well, but it isn't used as much. Chained and Unlimited are equally used. Sunny, well, it has to be based on the board game, since you can't hide army counts on the Board Game. Flat Rate is also popular, as i see many game created with Flat Rate. So that really leaves out - No Spoils, Adjacent

no spoils is probably the most popular for team games, very popular for 1v1 as well.

adjacent is the only one, I think I would die if I had to get 400 unique defeats on adjacent

caymanmew, I thank you for your suggestion. However, almost all these medals would be too easy to obtain, almost pointless, and are almost certainly unneccessary. I'm afraid that lackattack has already effectively stated he will not be making medals for settings such as "No Fog of War". I reckon the only one that could make it would be adjacent fortifications.

Could you possibly update the thread title? You will have to gain a lot more support before I can submit this.

Hmm... 4/4 so far. Somehow I don't think an adjacent medal is on the cards. No pun intended.

I support an adjacent medal. There is a medal for everything else, and a special medal for beating a mod in one game. Adjacent fortifications is its own strategy and should be rewarded accordingly.

by this definition every game type should be it's own medal

Exactly... and this would make medals totally pointless.

That would just change the value of the medal. It is still obvious that some of the medals will be mroe hard to get (damn Nuke) than usual Standard medal.

I support adjacent medal.
