Overkill - Cause at least 300 points of damage in a single shot
Frustrated Already? - Fight 10 battles to a draw by reaching the battle turn limit
TA Tourist - Visit every one of the planets that relate to a campaign in Templar Assault
Slayernz Hero - Kill 1,000 Steel Song ships ... don't care what the reason is, so long as they die.

It's about 1000 turns - although ends up being something like 1003 turns. If you are engaged with a high level enemy captain enemy ship that refuses to leave you alone. You can't evade him because his ship is better than yours. You can't shoot him because your shots keep missing, and he can't shoot you because your pilot is high enough for you to dodge shots. So you and he keep just shooting at each other and missing. Yeah yeah, I know, you can board and ram and stuff ... but I'm a gun bunny. I'm not going to do that boarding thing. Instead I just shoot and shoot and shoot and adjust range and shoot. And then before I know it I've hit the turn limit and the game forces me into a draw.

I have a few ideas I don't think I've seen yet. I'm not going to speculate the values, I understand the basics in game up to a point but bow to TB!
Route planner 1-3
»Travel x AU with 0 dmg/casaulties
Star Trader 1-3
» Allocate a minimum of x XP to all categories
Full bridge 1-3
» Recruit three NEW officers (must jettison turd lip) by x AE
I drive a hybrid 1-3
» Reach water fuel economy of x red and x green
Allen kill count awards?
Your father was Jay Leno
» Unlock all starting ships
I like the exploration ones a lot, space and surface. Is there a way to incorporate exploration awards based on the flavor texts in Rumors, game descriptions/ manual, lore evolution?
Why ARE we here again captain?
» explore (patrol) on all dead worlds
Seriously, captain, WHY are we here?
» patrol every sector, deep space and
planet
Four Corners
» Visit/patrol every corner sector
Unlocks based on upgrade configs.Such as Ultimate Blockader, Surveillance Operative, Mega Hold Cargo, Lightning(top speed ratio) Thunder (top quickness ratio) Or based on EHR, SHR, CER, signature etc.
Only the finest will do
» go x AE using/ buying faction matched torpedos exclusively (one thing I don't know yet is if that means matches your faction or the ships flag)
Even more subtle could be A Rolling Stone
» basically, you have x AE to perform every operation possible...transactions to kill a xeno and everything in between!
Master of the house
» Use all menu functions
Hmmm I'm sure i can think of more but I want to play now lol

Those three, but especially the TA tourist award, are amazing ideas. You could even do a "BF Tourist" as well! No offense, Frustrated already sounds... frustrating! haha |

You can do the Frustrated Already award by not investing anything into Tactics and getting to level 20 or 30 on Crazy difficulty. You'll soon find that you aren't able to hit anything at all. Have your pilot skill up, and nothing can hit you either. Result - very very very boring encounters  |

This probably isn't possible for ST but would be interesting for ST2.
Aimed specifically for non-combat Captains:
Aspiring Escape Artist - escape from X encounters with hostile Alien (encounter doesn't count if you defeat them)
Accomplished Escape Artist - escape from 5X encounters with hostile Alien
Master Escape Artist - escape from 10X encounters with hostile Alien

If you retreat on last action and combat is finished, then that counts. IF Alien retreats and you don't, then that doesn't count. Cannon Fodder - Have 1000 crew die within 10 years I stop for no one - Ignore 50 encounters in a row Floating like a butterfly - Sustain no damage in 10 encounters Can't touch me - Sustain no damage in 20 encounters I'm Teflon - Sustain no damage in 50 encounters The Apprentice - Hire 10 officers during your career You're Fired - Hire 20 officers during your career Mobile Mechanic - repair 10 ships in wilderness areas Aww shucks, I'm just doin my job - deliver 1000 units of items to satisfy shortages (alternatively, satisfy 20 shortages) Can I have that - Loot 1,000 units of goods after combat I'll take that - Loot 10,000 units of goods after combat All your Crew are belong to me - Enslave 1000 crew members after combat Down to the last man - have a combat victory where you are the last man standing (all your crew are dead) |

Like slayernz and his kill 1000 Steel Song ships, I'd say an award for killing 1000 De Valtos ships would satisfy me... I can't think of a name though...

If you retreat on last action and combat is finished, then that counts. IF Alien retreats and you don't, then that doesn't count. Does Alien (other than Hives/Hulks) ever retreat once engaged?? I did specify that it needed to be hostile, so Hives wouldn't count. Btw, I love the entire batch of awards you just wrote! |

Penitent Sinner: earn the Independent Captain award, and the Syndicate/Clan hero awards, in that order. (I.e., get -151 rep with all factions, and *then* work your way back up to +151 rep with all factions.) On the same Captain, of course.

Unkillable: survive 20 hull collapses (via escape shuttle). Punching Bag: survive 20 hull collapses in a row (i.e., in 20 consecutive encounters). Hijacker: capture ships X times within Y AE. (E.g. capture 20 ships within 10 years. Not sure the exact ratio for challenge. Maybe a series of awards? Hijacker, Master Hijacker, Elite Hijacker. Elite Hijacker should be something ridiculous like capturing 40 ships in 5 years or something almost impossible to achieve like that.  ) |
