Here are described just the ribbons and merits, designed for the use in AoC.
BG Ribbons:
Gettysburg Shiloh Antietam Bull Run Chickamauga
These ribbons are given automatically (read: without previous aproval of superior command) after player accomplished 5 (five) Major victories in one of hte BG games. It is still not known, if victories in unofficial scenarios (Pearidge, Perryville, FBurg, etc..) count too.
DOG Ribbons
Were given for participation in tournament in year 2000 called "Death of General" guided by Gen. Hulinsky, C.S.A. They are memorial, however, if the ribbon has stars in it, it means officer won his tournament fight. If it does not have any stars, the enemy had a material advantage and too much luck on his side.
RTTC Turny Ribbon
N/A
Still in designing progress, it will be memorial ribbon for participation in RTTC (Road to the Capitol Tourney), a tournament between XX COrps of AoC vs. Forrest Corps of AoA. Tornament rolled between September 2001 and November 2001 and was lead by Gen. Simms of FC/AoA
AoG Campaign Ribbon
Memorial ribbon for participation in AoC vs. AoG campaign, rolled in 2001. It is temporary design, will be replaced if anybody made it better. For now consisted of both fbattle flags ( AoG and AoC) together. Note: Its value is high, while it represent a reply on an insult which was delivered to AoC by a certain rebel commander. The guys wh owe it found time to defend the honour of AOC; regardless how efficient it was.
