If you get "Gold" in the timed course during basic training, plus finish everything else you get 5 million. If you got less I bet you didn't finish the course fast enough. You also get 100 cbills for shooting the captain and another 100 for shooting him until he kills you :)

You need to repeat the movement time challenge in the training area until you get Gold level to get the 5 million.

Also, if you are using a Victor, I believe that there is a Victor trial mech that you can use during your cadet missions. Also, remember to shoot Capt. Adams and let him kill you during training to get the achievements and 200 more Cbills, LOL!

Yes, first 25 games. Also, Bishop, spending real money is against the rules of the challenge, so no need to worry about that!

I did it! You just have to make sure that you make the turns as tight as possible without running into anything, took me about five tries.
