How medal ranks work

Each mission evaluates its medals when the operation ends. Bronze, Silver and Gold use separate thresholds; meeting the strongest threshold awards the highest qualifying rank.

You do not need to earn every Gold medal in a single run. The game saves the best rank earned for each medal separately, so a mission can be fully completed by collecting its Gold medals across multiple attempts. A later, weaker result does not replace an existing Gold medal.

The wording below preserves important distinctions such as at least, more than and no more than. RC means Requisition Credits, while no recon means that no reconnaissance action may be used during the mission.

Mission medal requirements

Every mission is listed below in campaign order, with a separate table for its Bronze, Silver and Gold requirements.

The Rock of Gibraltar requirements include the medal fix verified in Steam build 24693799: its countable targets and Austere Service thresholds now allow the final two medals to be earned.

Version 1.0 (1663) fixed the previously unobtainable Unrelenting Volley Medal in Iron Road. Its requirements remain a kill streak of 5 for Bronze, 10 for Silver and 20 for Gold.

NOTE

Known irregularities

The Salvo Commendation uses a three-kill time window. Bronze requires 90 seconds or less, but the current Silver and Gold comparisons are configured as 45 seconds or more and 10 seconds or more. This appears inconsistent with the purpose of the medal and may be a configuration error.

High Tide assigns the Unbroken Volley Medal twice. The duplicate uses the same conditions, so one intended medal may be missing from that mission.

Some internal labels no longer match their actual thresholds. This guide follows the active comparison values rather than those labels.
