    Wow 500 posts, not bad, and we really haven't officially launched yet.

    Any ideas on the newest award? It should be very easy for you guys to guess.

    It seems to be a Gold Wound Badge, not something that I would want :)

    Requirements:
    * Wounded 5 times or more in fighting or airraid, or
    * Extremly serious injury in the line of duty
    * Death in the line of duty

    btw. What's with all the nicknames? It can get somewhat confusing when you are reading statements on (for example) Rommel or Mussolini when you have to wonder about wether it is about the historical figures or the ones posting in this forum.

    You got it Marcus, but you data is missin one thing, the medal was also given out for "injury to, or loss of ones manhood", yikes! I guess that is a very serious injury.

    Sounds like that awards more of an award to be mocked for!!

    It just makes you stand out from the men...

    Suggestion, why not issue certain awards based on certain requirements. For example: a #50 Panzer Assault for 50 postings, or a 50 missions badge for 50 postings etc etc etc. You should if possible, once a person reaches a sort of milestone, let them choose their award from a list, but that has to be approved. Whay do you think?

    It's a great idea. My initial plan was to let a user select a nation and all awards would be from that country if they wanted, but it was WAY to complicated to pull off. The existing award system was tough enough, I had to do some serious code hacking. Right now I'm putting my effort into putting a LOT more features on ww2n.com, so don't expect any changes here untill that site is a little more fleshed out.
