If my wife knew I spent 2 1/2 years to get that little emblem, she would probably disown me.

Do you have to play on the start day of the battle to get the medal or at any period of days when the battle was fought?

For instance Operation Goodwood ends today, so would I get the medal?

thanks

Bear in mind though that the servers are based in Paris, and I don't think they have been adjusted for Summer Time

I played Guam landing a couple hours ago...didn't get the medal.

Do I need to win a specific side or just play any side, win or lose?

Pull the excel file of your history if you have played them.

I had not played all of them when I did the list, though others do not have an end date listed so I assume that they are one day only

Quite extraordinary, van Voort! Congratulations for that, it is a most difficult endeavor, winning for both sides on each scenario's historical date!

I still lack 17 scenarios, some for one side only, others with both sides missing. I won't finish this task this year anymore.

Congratz, I will endeavor to do that also. But yesterday I failed to win Japanese Counterattack with the Japanese, so the earliest will be next year. Smile
