While the actual implementation is still under heavy discussion a few comments might help to understand how it works now. Different you ones first thought the main criteria for promotions is not the missions / kills ratio but the mind skill. You simply don't want an psychopathic, thrill seeking terminator like guy as squadleader but someone who is mentally stable ;) Also, up to now, there is only one member of you squad that is going to be promoted while the rest is left with nothing. Here a list of the different badges and their corresponding ranks. \includegraphics[scale=1]{images/badges_rekrut_final.jpg} & \includegraphics[scale=1]{images/badges_sergeant_final.jpg} & \includegraphics[scale=1]{images/badges_hauptmann_final.jpg}\\ Private & Sergeant & Hauptmann\\
