GALCOM RANKS and MEDALS

The Terran government has a unique ranking and medal award system for the GALCOM military section. The starting rank is Commander and Experience Points are required to increase your rank. Medals are awarded based on merit only. You can gain medals only while playing ACM but you increase in rank in both Free Flight and ACM.

Salary is paid every 24 hrs and deposited directly into a credit account. You will not get paid if your status is set to court-martial or if you have negative Experience Points.

The table below shows the number of Experience Points required to reach a certain rank and the salary level for that rank.
