Is there a chart or list somewhere that shows the number of points needed for each rank?

When the rank system was designed, PG only had 1,191 scenarios. Now there are 2,965. Out of kindness, we've never readjusted the rank progression.

Completion % , Play Count, Rank

• 0%, 0 plays, Recruit
  
• 0.5%, 6 plays, Private
  
• 1%, 12 plays, Private First Class
  
• 2%, 24 plays, Corporal
  
• 3%, 36 plays, Sergeant
  
• 4%, 48 plays, Staff Sergeant
  
• 5%, 60 plays, Sergeant First Class
  
• 6.5%, 77 plays, Master Sergeant
  
• 8%, 95 plays, First Sergeant
  
• 10%, 119 plays, Sergeant Major
  
• 13%, 155 plays, Second Lieutenant
  
• 17%, 202 plays, First Lieutenant
  
• 22%, 262 plays, Captain
  
• 28%, 333 plays, Major
  
• 35%, 417 plays, Lieutenant Colonel
  
• 43%, 512 plays, Colonel
  
• 52%, 619 plays, Brigadier General
  
• 62%, 738 plays, Major General

• 90%, 1072 plays, General
  
• 101%, 1203 plays, General of the Army
  

At the time of creation, again, there were only 1,191 scenarios so the highest achievable rank was General. As the site founder, I made myself General of the Army because dictators giving themselves supreme titles without asking other people what they think is kind of Dictatorship 101.   PG has grown so much since then, that someone could conceivably also become a General of the Army. Frankly, if you can play one thousand two hundred and three games I'm not going to stop you!

Since the US Army currently has the most 4 star Generals since WW2, we might as well have the most 5 Stars.

Since Shad’s reply that PG has 2965 scenarios, The Deluge and Leyte ‘44 have been added; these supplements add over 80 scenarios to PG. This comes out to over 3045 scenarios!

Dr. Mike also shot out a shipping notice that Bron Pancera is in the mail. Bron Pancera? Did he rename a supplement or what? Off the top, the name is new to me.

Bron Pancera is a Golden Journal Deluge addon. It will be supported in Vassal by an Allied specials extension, when I can get to it.
