"Just wanted to start a thread for all the noobs out there (ahem, like me a year ago) struggling to get those elusive Ace of Aces ribbons. I know for a fact that most of the veteran simmers out there got their start the same way - by learning from their mistakes. What's your number one tip for a new player trying to get their first Ace of Aces?"

"lol, nice thread op! I've found that using the right fighter with a good balance of speed and damage is key to getting those Ace of Aces ribbons. Can anyone share some specific strategies for getting gold ace in the F/A-18 Hornet?"

"Haha, love the title. I've been grinding for my Ace of Aces in Star Conflict, and one tip I learned is to focus on one ship type at a time to understand its mechanics. Don't know if it'll help with the ribbons tho"

"Dude, Ace of Aces is no joke - I tanked for like, 3 weeks straight before finally getting that ribbon. Tip for you: focus on getting your kill-to-death ratio up and make sure you're communicating with your team. Don't be afraid to AFK when you're not needed, it's better than taking unnecessary damage"

"Lol @ 'noob-tanking', I'm pretty sure that's just a euphemism for 'spamming the same spot till you get lucky'. Anyways, got my first Ace of Aces ribbon in WoW when I was 5 levels below the required gear, pure RNG luck. Anyone else got a ridiculous story to share?"

"Dude, Ace of Aces is soooo worth it. I'd say just focus on one or two ships and get to know their mechanics, then you can experiment with different playstyles. Mastering a single ship's skills will make all the difference in getting that ribbon."
