The Gun Mettle Campaign was a three-month event introduced in the Gun Mettle Update in which players could complete skill-based contracts to be awarded one-of-a-kind weapons and exclusive weapons cases. Participation in the event required a Gun Mettle Campaign Pass. Using the Campaign Pass converted it to a Gravel Gun Mettle Campaign Coin. This Campaign Pass was not available for sale during the last month of the event.

Contracts

Participating players were granted two contracts each week during the event. These contracts could be completed anytime during the event but had to be completed before the event ended. Players who joined the Campaign after the initial week had access to the same number of contracts as players who joined on day one.

Each contract set a number of skill-based challenges the player could do to earn Contract Points (CP). This included one or more Advanced objectives that awarded Bonus CP. To complete a contract a player had to earn 100 CP from that contracts objectives. They could then turn in the contract immediately or earn an optional 30 Bonus CP by completing Advanced objectives. When a contract was completed, the player was awarded a Campaign-exclusive weapon or weapons case. The contracts CP was also added to the player's total CP on their Campaign Coin.

When decoding a Contract while connected to an officially registered server, players would have heard one of Miss Pauling's voice responses offering a new Contract based on the currently played class. Completing a contract would also yield another response.

Notes

All assists count as kills, with the exception of Sentry Gun kills.
Completing a contract with an advanced objective will cause the points gained to overfill into the bonus contract's scoring.
Objectives trigger multiple times in a single life if the requirements are met a second time. For example, getting 10 kills in one life will count a "get 5 kills in one life" objective twice.
Medic's advanced objectives require the stock Medi Gun's ÜberCharge; no other medigun option can achieve them.

Bugs

Kills with reflected Cow Mangler 5000 blasts don't count for "reflected projectile kill" objective.
The "5 kills with one Sentry Gun" objective's kill count is maintained between rounds as long as the player's sentry is not destroyed at any point.
The "5 kills with one Sentry Gun" objective sometimes can be triggered with Rescue Ranger kills.

Campaign Coin

Upon entering the Campaign, players were given a Gravel Gun Mettle Campaign Coin. This non-tradable coin made the player eligible to receive weekly campaign contracts. It also tracked the player's total Campaign Contract Points (CP), Contract Bonus Points, Contracts Completed, and Contract Kills. The badge increased in quality for every 1000 CP earned during the event.

Level 1		Gravel Gun Mettle Campaign Coin
Level 2 (1000 CP)		Bronze Gun Mettle Campaign Coin
Level 3 (2000 CP)		Silver Gun Mettle Campaign Coin
Level 4 (3000 CP)		Australium Gun Mettle Campaign Coin

Campaign Weapons

Each contract a player completed, awarded them a Campaign-exclusive weapon or weapon crate. These weapons perform identically to their standard counterparts but have a one-of-a-kind pattern applied to it. Standard paint patterns are uniquely placed on each weapon to make it different from any others. Weapons also come in six different rarities and five levels of wear. Weapons that come from cases can have the Strange capability, can more rarely be Unusual, and in the rarest case can be both.

Rarities

Weapons awarded during the Gun Mettle Campaign were of one of six different rarities. Weapons awarded for completed a contract were from the first four grades. Weapons obtained by unlocking weapons crates were from grades 3-6.

Color	Name	Example
#B0C3D9	Civilian Grade	Scattergun

#4B69FF	Mercenary Grade	Minigun
