a "successful" mission (3 career pts) is all about renown which IS related to tonnage or at least the quantity/number of kills. medals are a different beast.

in my experience, tonnage is not the only requirement for a medal/award. Some combination of these accomplishments will determine your award/medal. i have never seen the algorithm for an award/medal, only for a successful mission. i have some truly outstanding patrols with obscene renown and number of ships sunk but did not receive the highest award available. i think it was because i had only 1 completed objective and/or my patrol duration was less than 7 days.

  • renown from sinking ships
  • number of ships sunk
  • largest tonnage of ships sunk
  • number of "completed" objectives
  • renown from "completed" objectives
  • duration of patrol
