Hey guys,

I've got one medal missing from my case: the Order of Galatea. I've read you can get it in misson 22 "Proving Grounds": http://www.nightsolo.net/fs2guide/missions.html

Although I never got it there, nor in the full FS2 campaign. I've even managed to take down the Tiamat in that mission, which is near impossible, but still no medal.

Anyone knows why? Is this a bug?

You need to keep the Aquitaine over 50% health.

You need to keep the Aquitaine over 50% health.

I also believe that you need to be playing on a difficulty other than Very Easy.....but I could be mistaking this for a different mission....

[The E]

You are. There is no difficulty check associated with the sexp that gives out the medal, thus no matter what difficulty you play on, you'll get the medal.

[Hezus]

You need to keep the Aquitaine over 50% health.

Thanks! Can I just replay the mission from the Tech Room to get the medal or do I have to play the entire campagin again?

[The E]

I think you need to replay the mission in the campaign.

[Kie99]

You can't get medals from replaying missions in the Tech Room.  I believe you can use the 'skipmemymissionyo' cheat on the flight deck and type sm2-03

Don't you also get the medal if the Oberon is successfully defended?

[General Battuta]

Don't think so.

[Kolgena]

Not sure, but I think you also have to kill the Moloch that comes in.

In vanilla, killing the Moloch is not necessary, but in MVPs 3.6.8, it was necessary simply to not fail the mission, oddly enough.

[The E]

You need to keep the Aquitaine over 50% health.

That's the ONLY condition. At least in the mediavps 3.6.10 mission.

[Kosh]

During my several years as a loyal and devoted FS2 pilot I've only ever managed to that medal once. It might not seem that hard to do given the rather large number of hitpoints on that ship, but in reality it is extremely difficult.

[Asakura]

I was playing on easy most of the time, but so far I have 5 OoG's in my medal room, out of 7 rounds through the campaing on this profile. Running 3.6.9, not sure how much hull was left on the Aquitaine though. I do remember not getting the medal for not killing the Tiamat, on the other hand.

[General Battuta]

There's a medal for killing the Tiamat?

[Asakura]

Order of Galatea is a medal for something in the mission, I would not put my finger on the Tiamat, as I am not sure of the exact requirements of that medal.

[General Battuta]

The Order of Galatea is the medal for getting the Aquitaine out with >50% hull.

[The E]

There's a medal for killing the Tiamat?

No.

[Kolgena]

I remember that in the old (possibly current as well) mediavps, if you don't kill the Tiamat, you fail the mission even if the Aquitaine leaves with like 80%.

[General Battuta]

I don't think so. At least it wasn't that way in retail...

[Androgeos Exeunt]

I remember that in the old (possibly current as well) mediavps, if you don't kill the Tiamat, you fail the mission even if the Aquitaine leaves with like 80%.

You're wrong. The Tiamat can leave without you failing the mission. However, you WILL get a recommendation on how to kill it.
