Medals are items that can be turned in for other resources. The primary use of medals is for obtaining [[Blueprints]]. 
*Not to be confused with [[First Class Medal]]s.

==Description==
暁の水平線に勝利を刻んだ提督に贈られる「証」。資源や改修資材、または複数集めて改装設計図と交換することも可能です。

''"Certificate" given to admirals who have carved victory over dawn's horizon. It can be exchanged for resources or improvement materials, or even a blueprint if you collect several.

=How to Obtain=
===Extra Operations===
Clearing certain Extra Operations rewards a medal:
*[[1-5]], [[2-5]], [[3-5]], [[7-5]], [[4-5]], [[5-5]], and [[6-5]].

As Extra Operations reset each month, this is the primary method of obtaining medals, with a maximum of '''7 medals''' obtainable per month.  
*It is important to note that extra operations must be cleared '''before 23h59 JST on the last day of the month''' to be rewarded the medal, as killing the boss after this time on a run started before it will reward nothing.

=Uses=
===Trade In===
[[File:Medal_Trade_In_Menu.png|thumb|right|The Trade in-menu.The left option allows you to get a Blueprint, the top one Resources, the bottom one 4 Screws and the right button cancels the action]]
Medals can be traded in for three different rewards.

# Trading in '''4''' medals for a [[File:Item Icon Remodel Blueprint.png|30px]] [[Blueprint]]
# Trading in '''1''' medal for 300 {{Fuel}}{{Ammo}}{{Steel}}{{Bauxite}} and 2 {{IR}}
# Trading in '''1''' medal for 4 {{IM}}

The most common use for medals is trading in for Blueprints. For Admirals with all [[Remodel_(Mechanic)#Blueprints|blueprint remodels]] obtained, trading medals in for Improvement Materials {{IM}} can be valuable. '''Under no circumstances should you trade medals in for resources'''.

===Quests===
One-Time: 
*2x {{Q|F36}}

Repeatable: 
*2x {{Q|Fq1}}

===Equipment Upgrades===
''Some of these upgrades may require more than just Action Reports. All of them also require additional fodder equipment. Please refer to [https://akashi-list.me/ Akashi-List] for the exact requirements.''
