How To Efficiently Earn All Achievements

1. Play Through Every Cultural Path: Many achievements depend on:

  • Romanized high-tier cities
  • Pure Celtic islands
  • Patron God choices
  • Region-specific Amenities

A single campaign run won’t cover everything. Use sandbox mode to clean up missing achievements.

2. Maintain Multi-Region Trade: Albion and Latium produce goods that complement each other. This naturally helps you unlock:

  • Cura Annonae
  • Trails in the Sea
  • Travelling Sails Problem
  • Pecunia Non Olet
  • Pro Gloria

Trading rare resources is the easiest way to maintain steady income and Prestige.

3. Build Research Cities Early: Research progress affects a large chunk of achievements and unlocks powerful Specialists and ships. A city with Grammaticus and Fanum buildings accelerates:

  • Polygnostic
  • Scientia Potestas Est
  • Ultima Ratio
  • Orbis Non Sufficit

4. Fight Only When You’re Ready: Elimination achievements require:

  • A strong ground army
  • Proper naval support
  • Stable logistics behind your invasion fleets

Conquering weaker rivals first makes later wars easier, especially if you’re chasing “Si Vis Pacem.”

5. Keep Cosmetic & Ornament Goals in Mind: These are easy to forget but extremely quick to finish late-game:

  • Haec Ornamenta Mea
  • De Novo
  • Morituri Te Salutant

Decorations and cosmetics cost almost nothing once your economy stabilizes.
