=General Award Information=
Below, you can find general information about awards.
== Introduction to Awards ==
With the implementation of [[Grepo Score]], there are many new awards to unlock. There are graded awards and daily awards (most are graded). The amount of [[Grepo Score]] points available varies for all awards. If an award and/or requirement is missing, please post on either the US forum or the EN forum.


== Choosing which awards to display ==
=== 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:
 
{|class=wikitable style="text-align: center;"
!width="75px" | Medal

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.

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|espionage]] (spying) missions or that you've recruited lots of mythical units?

== List of all known Awards (and how to get them!) ==
 
Here's a list of all known awards - if you find any more (or know any of the unknown requirements mentioned below), [http://forum.en.grepolis.com/showthread.php?t=14345 please post details in the forum].


=== 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.
= List of Awards =
This is a list of all awards in Grepolis. If there are missing awards, please post on either the US or EN forum.


Daily awards look like a tombstone and have the date engraved on them, along with a picture representing the achievement:
*[[Daily Awards]]
*[[Tactics Awards]]
*[[Combat Awards]]
*[[Military Preparation Awards]]
*[[Empire Progression Awards]]
*[[High Scores Awards]]
*[[Heroes Awards]]
*[[Event Awards]]
*[[Decommissioned Awards]]

|-
|}
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!
=== Special Awards ===
Every so often, something unusual happens in Grepolis, such as an [[Advent Calender 2010|Advent calendar quest]]. Not surprisingly there's awards for these special events or quests:

|<center>'''Name'''</center>
|<center>'''Award Eligibility'''</center>
|-

| You found all the gifts of the Advent Calendar!
|-
|[[File:Easter_eggs_collected.png‎]]
|align="center"| Easter Egg Hunt Award
| You have found all Easter Eggs!
|}
=== 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! Remember: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiaPNlR5A4I Failure is the secret to success]]!
The appearance of the award changes based on it's grade:
*'''Grade 1''' (lowest) -- badly broken columns either side of the medal
*'''Grade 2''' -- slightly broken columns either side of the medal
*'''Grade 3''' -- perfect columns, draped with tattered (ripped / worn) blue banners
*'''Grade 4''' (highest) -- perfect columns, draped with perfect blue banners
Usually only the highest grade you've reached will be displayed, although some players manage to display multiple grades of the same award somehow.
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 it's somewhat amusing requirements.
==== Resource Gathering ====
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.
While you can gain resources by building up your [[Timber Camp]], [[Quarry]] and [[Silver mine]], you will gain far more resources if you [[Farming villages#Resource looting|loot farming villages]], attack enemy cities and [[Trade|trade goods]] at the [[Market Place|market]].

==== Civilisation Size ====
These awards encourage you to increase the size of your civilisation by:
* [[Points Table|Making existing cities bigger]]
* [[Colonising|Founding new cities]]
* [[Conquering|Conquering enemy cities]]
In order to get more cities, you'll need more [[Culture]].
The purpose of increasing your civilisation is to enable you to support a bigger army. If you're doing it just for the points (known as being a "Points whore" or "Sim city player") then enemies will just wipe you off the map as your cities will be easy targets for them to capture!

These awards encourage you to spy on other players. Your [[Espionage|espionage]] activities reveal detailed information about your enemies, including:
* The number and type of troops stationed in their city
* The amount of resources they have in their warehouse
* The levels of all their buildings
Armed with this information, you can better plan your attacks and have a better idea of what to expect should the enemy attack you first.

The Awards Page has been massively changed!!!


The awards page was broken up into several smaller pages (links may be found below). This page now serves the purpose of providing general awards information.

Thanks,
Your Wiki Team.

General Award Information

Below, you can find general information about awards.

Introduction to Awards

With the implementation of Grepo Score, there are many new awards to unlock. There are graded awards and daily awards (most are graded). The amount of Grepo Score points available varies for all awards. If an award and/or requirement is missing, please post on either the US forum or the EN 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 Grade I Badly broken columns either side of the medal
Grade II Grade II Slightly broken columns either side of the medal
Grade III Grade III Perfect columns, draped with tattered (ripped/worn) blue banners
Grade IV 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.

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:

Award-bar.png

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:

Insert-award.png

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.


List of Awards

This is a list of all awards in Grepolis. If there are missing awards, please post on either the US or EN forum.
