-'''Askar''' is a [[Halo 3]] [[meta-game|Meta-Game]] [[Achievement]]. It is earned when the player earns 15,000 points while playing the [[meta-game]] on [[The Storm]] level. This Achievement gives ''10'' [[Gamerpoints]] to the player.
+'''Askar''' is an [[achievement]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'' and ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]''.  It is unlocked by beating the par score on the level [[The Storm]]. The achievement is worth 10 [[Gamerscore]]. It is represented by a blue circle with a throwing star, also known as the "Sol" emblem, in the original game and a screenshot of [[Foundry]] in the collection.
-It is represented by a blue circle with a throwing star, also known as the "Sol" emblem.
+The par score for The Storm is 15,000 points in both ''Halo 3'' and ''The Master Chief Collection'', however the two games feature different [[campaign scoring]] formulae. Though the achievement can theoretically be unlocked on any difficulty, more points are awarded in campaign scoring when playing on higher difficulties.
+In the original game, players must achieve the par score individually, even when playing [[Cooperative play|cooperatively]]; in ''The Master Chief Collection'' cooperative players share a single score, potentially making the achievement much easier.
 == Methods ==
-Turn on [[Thunderstorm]], Fog, Tough Luck and [[Famine]] skulls on Normal and you should be able to reach at least 15,000 points. If all else fails, then turn on the [[Catch]] skull.
+* See also [[Guerilla]] for standard techniques
+* On Normal, activate the Tough Luck, Fog, [[Halo 2 skulls#Famine|Famine]], and [[Halo 2 skulls#Thunderstorm|Thunderstorm]] skulls. If you wish, activate the [[Catch]] skull as well. Do this to make the point value greater.
-== Trivia ==
+*In ''The Master Chief Collection'' players can earn significant points by destroying unoccupied Covenant vehicles as the game does not differentiate between piloted and empty vehicles; ''Halo 3'' is the only game in the collection with this campaign scoring quirk.
-*The achievement, "''Askar''" is actually in Bahasa Melayu (the formal language in Malaysia) and the meaning is "soldier".
-*''"Askar"'' is also similar to the Turkish word ''"Asker",'' meaning soldier.
-*In Swahili (the official language of Kenya and Tanzania), the word "askari" can mean soldier or policeman.

+==Trivia==
+The achievement is named for ''Halo'' speedrunner and stream viewer askar___, a member of the [http://haloruns.com HaloRuns] community. The word 'Askar' (sometimes 'Asker', especially in Turkic languages) is found in many languages of the Muslim world - for example in Turkish, Swahili and Bahasa Melayu (the formal language in Malaysia) - and originates from the Arabic word: '''عسكر''' / ''''askar''' meaning: 'Soldier'.
