Medals

Medals are roles to serve as decoration for an ECC member. Similar to ranks, medals have clear difficulties and are broken up into several categories: High medals, general medals, specific medals, and unit awards. General medals are the most common and are awarded for things like seamanship or good behavior. High medals, like their name states, are higher than general medals, and take more effort to earn. Specific medals are medals that may be department-specific, or require a certain task to be achieved or a place to be traveled to. Unit awards are different, in that they are awarded to ships and the ship command personnel. Unlike other medals, if a person in the three-person command group (captain, XO, and crew chief) changes ships, their unit award is revoked and automatically awarded to a the replacement.

Unit awards are also unique in that they may be awarded multiple times, which is not reflected in the discord server but in the commissioned ships list.

The "Difficulty to Earn" column in each table shows how difficult to earn each medal is. It is listed on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the hardest medal to earn. Medals stack, and if someone has earned a higher medal in that class, it should stay. The only reason medals should be revoked would be in case of a reprimand.
