How to unlock epilogues?
Achievements mention an epilogue for everyone but I don't know if they are bugged or not.

I bought everything with Marco, got all his story bits and finished the game with him but it does not seem related to any of those.

Did you actually finish the game, or did you just kill phase 2 and go back to the garage?

I haven't seen any epilogues yet, but based on the progress of those who have played a little more than me, it seems you must first find and defeat all of the generals (these require finding the 'x' stages in each map, for all for regions. This will also require 3 full playthroughs, as each general that appears is based on which region you start on).

It looks like playing through after beating all the generals will allow you to get the true ending, this is where epilogues should start appearing.

At least, that is what I am anticipating.
Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.

I unlocked the true ending and beat all 3 forms of the final boss by beating his 3 generals before him.

Beating the game and not letting Morden escape did not unlock the epilogue for anyone I had.

Ok, now I am super curious.

Finally beat the game with the true ending, had Eri in my party with all of upgrades and achievements unlocked.

Didn't skip credits or anything. No epilogues.

Not sure what else there is to do.

Ok, I read somewhere that to get the epilogue, you must:

-Have team leader with all achievements/dialogue options unlocked
-Beat the game with the true ending
-Only the team leader gets the epilogue.

Be advised though, you might want to make sure you have all achievements/dialogues unlocked PRIOR to starting the campaign.

On my Eri run, she was the team leader, and I unlocked my last dialogue entry during the run. I guess this voids it?

Can someone please make a list (step by step) what is needed to actually trigger the final phase of the last boss?
I assume Morden doesn't escape in that scenario

(btw I did beat Alan and Paqar once, third general not appearing yet...)

Thanks that's exactly what you need to do.

I had Marco with all his story unlocked before starting the run. I had him as squad leader and got the true ending with him.

I did it on easy.

Each general's path is tied to what zone you start with. I think you need to start at the tomb for the one you're missing. Once you've beaten all three you unlock the ability to do each boss in one run at which point you get phase 3 and Mordin doesn't escape.

FYI, a couple of time saving techniques.

1.) If you finish the last dialogue achievement during your run (assuming that character is the leader), you can still view the storylines after a boss fight (choose barracks) and you can still get the epilogue on that run.

2.) For Xbox at least, you only need to beat the 3 generals and get to the city. Once you are at the first city level, you can die and you get the epilogue after game over screen (for some reason). Of course, only works if you have views all dialogues with team leader.

I'm posting this to confirm you can unlock multiple Epilogues at once. Just make sure all unlocks are complete on the characters and you have viewed all their story bits. I unlocked 3 at once in one playthrough.
