As a French Catholic, hold the Kingdom of Thessalonika without being vassalised to Byzantium

Was able to get the achievement while having another, non-christian faith. I was indeed french and hold Kingdom of Thessalonika without being vassalised to the Byz tho.

I have seen some discrepancies between the wording of achievements on steam and the ones ingame. There is an achievement for the norse to annex the kingdom of sicilia, but only the achievement ingame states that is has to be annexed before the year 1024. The steam one doesnt mention it.

So i wouldnt be surprised if there are more discrepancies in the wording of achievements.

It seems the internal religion requirements are actually "Not Orthodox and not Iconoclast," rather than "Catholic" like the achievement's flavor text suggests.

"Note that you don't need to be independent or hold the Kingdom of Thessalonika title and, differently from what the description says, you don't need to be Catholic. You can be from any faith except Orthodox or Iconoclast.
This achievement is easiest obtained by starting as Jarl Haesteinn in 867. He can convert to French culture right from the start, which conveniently also gives access to siege weapons. Conquer the County of Napoli to be within range of Byzantium and prepare to invade them. If Byzantium allies with West Francia, swearing fealty to the French will prevent them from defending their Byzantine allies when you declare war. Then use the Conquer Kingdom (Thessalonika) Casus Belli.

It is possible to do this achievement by starting as the Byzantine Empire, obtaining a second Empire title, and destroying the Byzantine Empire title. Then send your heir to be educated as French Catholic and wait until you play as them."
