to clarify for some of these, what vehicles count as armour? is it just eitehr of the tanks?

and for 15 minutes in a transport vehicle, does that include the air transport and the APC?

EDIT: also, for awards taht have an In A Round and a Total condition, is it ncesary to fulfill both conditions or is it either or?

I'm not 100% sure on the finer workings, but I know that Battlewalkers count as armour and I'm sure the other two tank types will. Jeeps and APCs are transports, but I've never worked out if aircraft are (I think they come under air vehicles, but I'm not really sure).

For ribbons and such, that have a total condition then an IAR condition you have to complete the total first (usually time played) and then you have to do the IAR. Completing the IAR before the total condition doesn't count for anything.

As for the points, if you've got a decent amount of time as a particular kit I'd whore that for your silver. 15 hours as whichever kit, then 20 kills I think and you bag 500 points. That'll probably get you a promotion. In the meantime you could go for pins to get a handful of points - the Titan Destructor pin (I think - the one where you blow up their turrets) is easy for an AT but it's only worth 5 points.

That's always bothered me. Nothing sucks more than getting lucky and getting x points/kills and having it mean nothing because LOLS OMG U DIDNT GET 500 OF TEHM IN TOTAL FDIRST LOLS

Woot! I have a gold Engineer Service Badge, 1000 points. But then I do play almost exclusively as an engineer.

Oh dear, my total hours are more than twice that.

Some of these awards sound quite easy if you just bother to do them, I'm off to do 10 titan air drops for no particular reason.

I tried to do that by using the titans drop pods to launch myself p and back on to the titan, but it doesnt let you count that. I think it actually referes to dropping people out of an air transport on to the enemy titan

A couple are fairly easy if you go out specifically to get them - the parachute one isn't hard, and the Titan Destructor. The others though are massively difficult even if you're trying specifically for them. I've spent hours trying to get my AA badge this morning, but the fact of the matter is that you simply don't get enough aircraft flying by to get 10 kills.
