Decorations! medals! Fame and Fortune!

Any ideas for some?

We need to design some medals and need ideas for reasons to dish them out. We want to make them quite hard to achieve though. So hit me with it!

How about awarding someone the "keys" to the city for defending a fellow citizen/innocent? Or maybe even only awarding them for those who get injured in the process of defending a fellow citizen/ innocent...

Well we could use the onces the miltary already use.

Medal of Honor
Purple heart
etc

or make up some

Combine the use of United States military and English military ribbons and decorations.

Victoria Cross would have to be the Cross of LJS or the Silver cross.

Don't forget the Order of the Sash. Need somewhere to hang these things on for dress events.

Hmm you kindof need to think.

What IG or on Form action can I do that deserves a medal?

I'd say Killing a Bandit or known Robber
Making conciderable RP conributions
Gaining somthing like 50 Action Points
Wounded/Killed whist defending others

and for officers...

Having sucessfull taken part in an inter county/country and been on the winning side
Having shown great tactical thinking in war



And as for other awards, there would be campaign badges...
Having taken part in an authorised revolt
having taken part in a war


Some names I've got kicking around just now...

Fictional
Regents Cross
Kings Cross
Stafford Cross
Stafford Silver Star
Virtuious Cross
Veterans Medal

I have one I'd like to put forwards!

Regents Cross

Looks like: Small germanic style cross with a banner draped over extended arms reading...timor mortis conturbat me

Latin for "the fear of death confounds me."

I'd like to see it awarded for Killing a known bandit or Robber on the roads of the county.

Watcha think?

Agree with conditions for awarding the medal. Regent medal should be something huge for England like a medal under the Victorian Cross. Maybe a Stafford Meritorious Medal for making the highways a safer place. IMHO...which everyone has one.

Don't theese have to be approved by the Regent or King?
