{{Quotation|'''Operation Anniversary Annihilation''' publicity blurb|Gentlemen and gentlewomen, rejoice! Soon, it will be time to celebrate the 10th anniversary of our streak of heroic cowardly defenses from the robotic nuisances merciless machines. It's because of this occasion that our greatest adversary, Gray Mann, has arrived with a plethora of presents, one of which included a pipe bomb that was not defused on time. Moreover, he has sent his robotic armies for the umpteenth time to try and force us into submission, and recon says that these machines are bigger and badder than ever before. Grab your weapons and Military-Grade Cakes, because it's time to celebrate!}}

The Participation Trophy and Galvanized Goblet player medals reuse the Rust Starter and Iron canteen medals from [[Operation Canteen Crasher]], while the remaining medals reuse models from [[Operation Madness vs Machines]]. The Soul-Binding Star reuses the model for the Pinnacle of Ingenuity, while the Caregiving Corundum, Heroistic Heart, and Dastardly Diamond reuse the models for the Grandiose Garnet, Hopeful Heart, and Chaotic Crystal, respectively. However, the latter four medals initially drop with special custom painted colors that are not otherwise available in-game. The Soul-Binding Star is painted dark purple, while the remaining three are painted with special team colors: the Heroistic Heart is painted purple on RED, and light blue on BLU, while the Caregiving Corundum and Dastardly Diamond are both painted different shades of red on RED, and blue on BLU.

Latest revision as of 08:19, 12 July 2024

“
Gentlemen and gentlewomen, rejoice! Soon, it will be time to celebrate the 10th anniversary of our streak of heroic cowardly defenses from the robotic nuisances merciless machines. It's because of this occasion that our greatest adversary, Gray Mann, has arrived with a plethora of presents, one of which included a pipe bomb that was not defused on time. Moreover, he has sent his robotic armies for the umpteenth time to try and force us into submission, and recon says that these machines are bigger and badder than ever before. Grab your weapons and Military-Grade Cakes, because it's time to celebrate!
— Operation Anniversary Annihilation publicity blurb

This event had six medals up for grabs: three as rewards for completion of the tour, and three for donations to a charity drive benefiting The International Fund for Animal Welfare. Content creators received the Auspicious Automaton Assembler's Accolade.

Clearing any two missions during the campaign earned the player the Participation Trophy medal, clearing at least five of the six available Intermediate difficulty missions earned the player the Galvanized Goblet medal, and clearing at least eleven of the nineteen available Advanced or Expert difficulty missions earned the player the Soul-Binding Star medal.

In addition, players could donate varying amounts through item or monetary donations to receive donor medals. Donating at least 5 USD to the charity drive earned the player the Caregiving Corundum medal, donating at least 10 USD earned the player the Heroistic Heart medal in addition to the previous medal, and donating at least 15 USD earned the player the Dastardly Diamond medal in addition to the previous medals. The charity drive concluded on September 1, 2022.

Content creators whose missions were accepted for use in the event were awarded the Auspicious Automaton Assembler's Accolade medal.

The Participation Trophy and Galvanized Goblet player medals reuse the Rust Starter and Iron canteen medals from Operation Canteen Crasher, while the remaining medals reuse models from Operation Madness vs Machines. The Soul-Binding Star reuses the model for the Pinnacle of Ingenuity, while the Caregiving Corundum, Heroistic Heart, and Dastardly Diamond reuse the models for the Grandiose Garnet, Hopeful Heart, and Chaotic Crystal, respectively. However, the latter four medals initially drop with special custom painted colors that are not otherwise available in-game. The Soul-Binding Star is painted dark purple, while the remaining three are painted with special team colors: the Heroistic Heart is painted purple on RED, and light blue on BLU, while the Caregiving Corundum and Dastardly Diamond are both painted different shades of red on RED, and blue on BLU.

The Soul-Binding Star, Caregiving Corundum, Heroistic Heart, and Dastardly Diamond each have two styles, named "Normal" and "Gem Only". The "Gem Only" style displays only the gemstones, without the surrounding metal frames.

The Participation Trophy and Galvanized Goblet were contributed to the Steam Workshop by Colteh, Rev, Swordstone, Wave, Nuke, kratos , Benoist3012, Pelipoika, sigsegv, Hyperion, Hydrogen , sedisocks, Sntr, NeoDement, Star Bright, and Interrobang .
