Awards

You receive awards when you reach certain milestones whilst playing Grepolis. This guide lists all known achievements (medals) that you can get in Grepolis, how to get them, and how to choose who sees them.

List Of All Awards

The following is a list of all of the Awards available in Grepolis. As you can see, there are a few requirements which are still unknown, so if you figure them out please post details in the forum.

Graded Awards

The following medals are awarded when you achieve specific requirements. Unlike daily awards, you'll still receive the medal even if other players have achieved more than you. As your level of achievement for a particular requirement increases over time, you'll get higher "grades" of the award. These awards encourage you to learn about major game features and then to keep using those features in your gameplay.

Even if you are a lousy Grepolis player and fail spectacularly, you'll still be awarded and graded for your EPIC FAIL achievements. Now you can boast about your failures!

The appearance of the award changes based on it's grade:

Medal	Title	Description
	Grade I	Badly broken columns either side of the medal
	Grade II	Slightly broken columns either side of the medal
	Grade III	Perfect columns, draped with tattered (ripped/worn) blue banners
	Grade IV	Perfect columns, draped with perfect blue banners

Usually only the highest grade you've reached will be displayed, although if you reset your account, you get to keep the awards gained prior to the reset, but they are reduced to the lowest grade.

The one exception is the Victim award (which is the highest level of failure possible in Grepolis) as it has only one grade due to its somewhat amusing requirements.

Daily Awards

Each of the following awards are handed out once a day to the player who best achieves the awards' requirements. For example, the person who loots the most cities in a day, more than anyone else in the world (server), will get the "Looter of the day" award. However, they only appear once 30 days have passed on a world (non-dependent on speed).

Daily awards look like a tombstone and have the date engraved on them, along with a picture representing the achievement:

Medal	Title	Description
	Attacker of the Day	Collect the most battle points in a day as an attacker
	Defender of the Day	Collect the most battle points in a day as a defender
	Looter of the Day	Loot the most resources in a day
	Great power of the Day	Conquer the most cities in a day
	Supporter of the Day	Collect the most battle points as a supporter.

You can collect large numbers of these daily awards - each time you're the best on the server for one of the requirements above you'll be awarded with a new tombstone! Note that these only appear 30 days after the World opens (non-dependent on speed).

These awards encourage you to gather as many resources as possible, which in turn will allow you to increase the size of your civilisation and army.

Choosing which awards to display

By default, when you receive an award only you will see it. If you want other players to see your awards, you need to edit your award settings.

To do this, go in to your Profile and choose the Awards section.

You can change the default setting for each server that you have an account shown on - select the server from the first drop down, then select what should happen when you receive new awards on that server:

Only visible to you -- New awards are only shown to you, nobody else can see them
Visible to the alliance -- New awards are made visible to members of your alliance
- Note: It's not clear how "visible to alliance" works - for example, is it just the alliance you're in or does it also include pact alliances (allies and NAPs)? It's also unclear as to whether your alliance on other servers can see awards that aren't from that server.
Visible to everyone -- New awards are made visible to all Grepolis players (on all servers)

For example, if you select the "Visible to everyone" setting, then new awards will automatically be added to the "Visible to everyone" column. You're existing awards will not be updated, you'll have to move them manually if you want to change who can see them.

Regardless of the default settings, you can still manually rearrange your awards between the three columns by dragging them to a different column.

Depending on which column the award is in, other players will be able to see it in a bar at the bottom of your user profile...

Award Bar (viewing other player's awards)

To see the rewards received by a player, look on their user profile page and you'll see the award bar at the bottom:

As shown above, blue banners indicate which World (server) the players were awarded on. Players can have accounts on multiple servers so it's not uncommon to see several worlds (and their associated awards) listed.

Prolific players will have a big list of awards that scroll off the edge of the screen - you can drag the award bar with the mouse to scroll it and see more awards.

Hovering over an award will display more information about the award such as it's title and what was required to achieve it.

If no awards are shown then it's likely that the player has chosen not to make their awards publicly visible.

Why would I choose not to show my awards to everyone?

Awards can possibly give away sensitive information about your account on a server - for example, do you want opponents to know that you regularly fail espionage (spying) missions or that you've recruited lots of mythical units?

Remember that you'll always get a notice when you receive a new reward so you can manually override the display of that award fairly soon after you get it. You might still choose to add all awards to the "Visible to everyone" or "Visible to the alliance" columns, and then remove any sensitive awards after you get the notice about receiving them.

How do I show my awards in forum topics and other places?

You can insert your awards in a forum topic, your profile text, in-game messages and various other places using the "Award" button as shown below:

You can choose to display all your awards, or just awards from a specific server, or even a specific award. Quite why you'd want to do this I have no idea, but hey, its still pretty cool!

The BB Codes (formatting markup used in the in-game forums) can be pasted in to your profile, notepad and anywhere else that accepts BBCode within the game.
