I wish you success in getting all the in-game achievements

Work in progress: work on this guide is still ongoing. Maybe now it looks like just a list of achievements, but it will not be so for long. Very soon, I will update each achievement with a detailed description and a screenshot or video explaining how to unlock it.

Thank you for you patience!

Achievement Info

Spice is the most valuable resource in the universe. The spice extends life, expands consciousness, and makes interstellar travel possible. Found only on Arrakis, it is sought by the most influential forces in the universe. Crush your opponents in combat, best them through political intrigue, undermine them with your network of illusive spies and unlock all achievements here in Steam.

Rule. Conquer. Play.

The Dune universe has always been about temporary alliances, lies, deceptions, betrayals and other political intrigues. And it’s very fortunate that the game developers understood and felt the spirit and atmosphere of the original books and films: it would be sad to see a thoughtless and one-sided strategy about a toy war with pew-pew, boom-boom and zap-zap.

Huge part of achievements are related to winning the match under certain conditions, so make your way to success and this will be the key to unlocking most other achievements in the game.

Use All Mechanics The Game Offers

The game gives you a huge variety of mechanics and ways of interacting with allies and opponents, and the world that witnesses your battles lives and develops in parallel with you.

Very often the game rewards you with achievements for choosing one or another path of development, achieving a certain result in the economy, military or political craft. Awake your imagination and use all the tools that the game offers you in order to unlock more and more achievements.

Play As Different Factions

There are several large factions in the game that act as the ruling force. They are all very different both in visual design and in playing style. Some find it easier to achieve political success, some are born conquerors, while others are better at finding allies or developing technologies.

In any case, in order to unlock 100% of the achievements, you will have to play for different factions and face opponents in different game modes. Don't be afraid to learn new gameplay tactics and success will be granted by you.

Spoiler Free Zone.

I usually write a separate paragraph in my guides that the game has story achievements, the description of which may contain spoilers, but apparently not for this game.

Currently, all game modes are designed for pure gameplay, there is no story campaign or missions that could contain spoilers, so you can safely play and earn achievements without fear of ruining the experience of the game.

New Achievements To Come

When I created this guide, there were only 35 achievements in the game, but their number gradually increased and currently reaches 85. Considering the developers' plans for the development of multiplayer, the possibilities of future DLCs, the story campaign and other content, do not hesitate to enter this guide and check its updates, because we will definitely be waiting for more and more new achievements.

Easy Win/Desert Fighter/Strategist/Master of Arrakis

These achievements require from you to reach victory with any possible way on curtain dufficulty. You can set AI difficulty in Settings tab after selecting a specific fraction.



As you can see from the description, winning on higher difficulty levels unlocks achievements with previous difficulties. Thus, to get all the achievements at once, it is enough to win on the insane difficulty. However, I recommend getting to grips with the basic mechanics of the game on easy and normal difficulties before playing on insane.

Reach victory while playing for the House Vernius in any possible way, condition, difficulty or game mode to unlock this achievement.

House Vernius of the Ixian confederacy is the main provider of spacefolding ships in the galaxy. Their obsession with technological progress clashes with the prohibition on thinking machines imposed by the Butlerian Jihad.

Linger Bewt 🔳 Produces 15 Water 🔳 Unlocks the Water Network and Water Seller Extensions in Underworld Headquarters Lingar’s business revolves around a single commodity, but one which is so rare on Arrakis, only Spice tops it in importance: water.

Governor

This is a political way to win the match. After the start of the game, exactly 20 days later the first Landsraad meeting will begin.

This is what it looks like. Here you can see Resolutions that are being put to a vote by the factions. Factions use Votes to adopt Resolutions that are beneficial to them and prevent those that harm the faction from coming into force. Resolutions appear randomly at each meeting.



Above in this menu you can see 5 different Charters. Each of them has its own requirements, and once a Faction is eligible for a charter it will appear on the next council session for voting. If one or more factions become eligible for two or more different charters at the same time the game will pick one charter at random to propose. There will be only one Charter up for voting in each Council Session.

If the Charter gets voted in, the victor of the vote will hold that charter until either the Loss of Rights Resolution passes or until the Charter comes up for voting again and another faction wins the vote.

Charter	Screenshot
Speaker of the Council 🔹 Allows the reroll of 1 resolution at the start of each council 🔹 Minor Houses will not vote to elect the holder to negative resolutions 🔶 You must have 250 Landsraad Standing 🔶 You must spend 1000 Influence on Landsraad votes since the game started
Judge of the Council 🔹 Allows the training of Landsraad Judges 🔹Holder is immune to the negative effects of any resolution modifier 🔶 You must have 250 Landsraad Standing 🔶 40 Command Points Command Points are used
Eye of the Council 🔹 Get 2 extra Agents Agents with a special Council Trait 🔹 Probe Setup is free, faster, and cannot trigger an Agent Agent's capture 🔶 You must have 250 Landsraad Standing 🔶 You must have 7 assigned Agents Agents
Water Seller's Union 🔹 +2 Solari per positive Water 🔹 Village Water Water production cannot be reduced by any effect 🔶 You must have 250 Landsraad Standing 🔶 You must produce 50 Water
The Dune Governorship 🔹 Staying Governorship for 30 days results in a Political Victory 🔹 +300 max influence Influence 🔹 +3 influence Influence production 🔶You must have 450 Landsraad Standing 🔶You must have 1 any Charter

As you can see, The Dune Governorship is a special charter which is used for the Political Victory Condition. The first Faction to get elected will be granted 10 000 Solari instead of the usual 2000 Solari and 20 Landsraad Standing. On top of that when a Faction gets elected to this charter the next Landsraad council will be guaranteed to have the loss of rights Resolution as 1 of the 3 options to vote on.

Once you elected as The Dune Governorship hold this Charter for 30 days to win the game and unlock the achievement.

Hegemon

Winning by way of the Hegemony victory condition is likely the way many matches will end. Hegemony is essentially a rating of your overall control on Arrakis. Hegemony is accrued through many different actions, and accruing 30,000 points will make you the victor.



The main ways of gaining Hegemony include:

• Annexing and taking over villages.
  
• Getting Charters passed in your favor.
  
• Using espionage operations.
  
• Paying the Spice Tax in time.
  
• Developing researches and constructing buildings that grant you Hegemony points.
  
• Contrilling unique regions usually grant you 1 000 Hegemony points.
  
• A bunch of smaller actions can contribute to your Hegemony as well.

Basically, you'll want to expand and control as much of Arrakis as possible in order to win through this method. Do not go to extremes and develop your rule evenly in all directions. In this case, you will provide yourself with an abundance of Hegemony points, which will allow you to get ahead of your opponent and accumulate the required number of points.

Conqueror

You can also achieve Domination victory by building up massive army and destroying enemy Main Base. However, these bases has massive HP and defense level, so you'll need a really huge army to bring them down.

The description of the achievement seems to hint a little that you need to destroy the base of the last remaining enemy on the map, but this achievement works even if you are playing 1 on 1.
Kanly Duel mode is perfect for this achievement.

Assassin

Assassination of your opponent is another way to win the match. In this case, to achieve this you need to kill the only or last opponent in the match. Let's take a closer look at how to do this.

In the Espionage menu you can see your Agents, enemy factions, a list of various operations that harm opponents and help you.

Agents are recruited over time and you need to distribute them among the free slots in this menu. You can increase the number of cells and the rate of emergence of Agents through Political Development.



The assassination is available from the very beginning, but it requires preparation. In order to start preparing for the murder you will need:

• 500 Intel Points
  
• 1000 Solari
  
• Infiltration Level 3 on Enemy Faction
  
• Infiltration Level 1 on Arrakis, Spacing GUild, CHOAM and Landsraad

Intel points accumulate over time on their own, just as Infiltration Level depending on how many of your agents are into it. In order to increase the amount of agent slots for the enemy faction, you need to place Infiltration Cells on their territory.

This is what your espionage menu should look like when you're ready to start preparing your assassination.



When you start the operation, the assassination icon will appear at the top right with complete information about the progress of the operation. Here it is important for you to see the countdown to successful completion, the speed of the operation, how many of your agents are involved and how many enemy agents are counteracting this.

As long as the enemy does not know about the assassination, he will not undertake any counteraction. However, as soon as this happens, the speed of the operation will gradually decrease, extending the completion date.

At this point, your opponent will be scouring their territories for your Infiltration Cells. If he finds and destroys them, this could significantly affect the course of the operation and you may even have to cancel it. That is why it is important to place them at different ends of enemy territory so that their search takes as long as possible.

If, nevertheless, the progress of the operation has stopped and does not move further, then it can be started with the help of your assassins. Train one and send him to enemy territory where your Infiltration Cell is, and then attack the village with it.

After this, the operation speed will again become 100%, which will help to complete the operation successfully. But remember that for this the enemy must not discover your Cells, you cannot create new ones while Assassination is active, so if you are left without them, the operation will have to start over.

Once the operation is successfully completed, the enemy faction will be eliminated.

Magnate

Let's look at the economic conditions for victory. Since 20-30 days after the start of the game, the CHOAM market will become available. At this market, special shares are sold for Solari, which can be bought and sold.



The price of these shares is constantly changing and this market can be a source of both profit and loss. Shares can only be bought/sold in quantities of 5 and 20 at a time.

The more shares you have, the more bonuses your faction will receive when reaching a certain percentage of ownership. If you become share holder with more than 50% of the total number of shares, you will win the match and unlock the achievement.

The amount of Solari you will have to spend for this type of victory is in the thousands, so I advise you to focus on accumulating this currency in large quantities.

Insanity

I was sure that this achievement would be much more difficult, but if you know what you are doing, then everything can turn out much easier.

Your task is to win the game with settings like in the screenshot in Skirmish Mode.
I will advise you to choose the faction that you know how to play best, in my case it is House Harkonnen. Choose Сouncelors at your discretion, but I chose Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen and Rabban Harkonnen.

Set game difficulty to Insane, turn on all win conditions and set Sandworms, Storm Strenght, Local Strenght, Spice Contract to High level. These conditions are strongly required; if they differ, you will not unlock the achievement.

I highly recommend setting the map size as large as possible - your opponents will be terriable neighbors, let them be as far away as possible. You can also set enemy factions random or you can choose like me.

In my case, I chose the House of Ekaz, Smugglers and Freemans. House Ekaz cannot violate any Truce, which will prevent him from suddenly attacking you, and the last two factions cannot participate in Landsraad meetings, this will allow you to impose your will on them in the early stages of the game.



So you started the match, gradually develop, provide yourself with all the necessary resources for a long game. You have to find out where is the edge of the map is from you and capture territories, first those that have important resources. Look carefully at the perks of your Villages and use them. Be sure to scout out where your opponents are.

As you can see, the Freemans were close to me, the other two factions were much further away.

Our plan for victory is the simplest possible method of victory — assassinations with possible transition to political victory. That's why I play the Harkonnens, they are the best in this matter.

From the beginning of the match I chose one main Development from each branch, but after that I started researching the political developments in order to quickly get a lot of Agents and have an advantage in the Landsraad Consulate.



Getting ready for our first assassination. Of all three factions, it was the Freemen who took the lead with Hegemony points and were the first candidate for victory, in addition, they were neighbors with me, so they would be my first victim.

REMEMBER: Place Infiltration Cells on enemy territory carefully, never place them in neighboring regions, it is better that they are as far apart as possible, because the enemy will quickly find and destroy them, which can slow down or interrupt our assassination.

Always sacrifice your agent to the Assassination Operation. This will reduce the cost of the operation and prepare it instantly, also it allows to remain undetected until it is 50% complete.

One way or another, after 50% your assassination attempt will be noticed in any case. Even if the Faction did not have Counterintelligence Agents, they will appear and the enemy will intensify their resources to search for your Infiltration Cells.

I advise you to place only 2 out of 3 possible ones before starting the operation. Prepare the third, but not place it, leave it until these two are found and destroyed, and your operation is at risk of failure.

Train assassins, without them not a single operation can be completed on Insane difficulty, so constantly check the status of the operation and the speed of its execution. If the speed drops below 50%, then immediately send an assassin to Infiltration Cell in order to return the speed back to 100%.

As a result, you will be rewarded by the fact that your first opponent defeated. Your first real step towards victory has been taken.

While I was dealing with the Freemen, I didn’t waste time and sent extra agents to spy on other factions and raise the Infiltration level to save time. Unfortunately, House Ekaz also didn’t waste his time and bought more than 30% of the CHOAM tickets, which meant that they could quickly turn out to be the winner too, so we destroy them next.

I repeat with House Ecaz everything I did with the Freemans. At the Landsraad Standing, I tried in every possible way to prevent the House Ekaz from buying CHOAM tickets. To do this, special voting options may appear, which prohibit purchasing them until the next meeting or increase the purchase price by 100%.

In any case, they die at my hands too.



You can deal with the last opponent whatever you like, but the Smugglers also decided to finish me off with an assassin, so I didn’t change my tactics.

Some tips for the future:

Remember I said that you need to choose a large map? So, you will still have to send assassins to the borders of the enemy faction, so help yourself and reduce this distance as much as possible.
Trade carefully. The Smugglers are trying to get Intel from me to search for Infiltration Cells. If I agreed, I would create problems for myself
They might try to assassinate you too. Fight back! Look for their Cells, interfere with their assassins and do everything so that.

Savage

Not a difficult one, but rather unpleasant achievement, which is also best unlocked in Kanly Duel mode. You need to win a match in any way and not research any improvements from the Developments menu. Just leave it alone and ignore all notifications to research something there.

Pariah

Pariah Standing is a powerful debuff for your faction. It cannot be stopped until the very end of the match, so before attempting this achievement you must be 100% sure that you know what you are doing.

It is extremely hard to get rid of, and its presence practically deprives you of the opportunity to win the match in any way other than killing the enemy leader and destroying the main base, so before you begin this achievement you must be 100% sure that you know what you are doing.

So what's the Landsraad Pariah and what does it means to you?

• You will no longer be able to vote and make political decisions in Landsraad Council
  
• Your level of Influence Points accumulation will be reduced
  
• COAM Share buying price is raising on 300%
  
• Every 20 days you got assaulted by army of Landsraad Guards

As a result, political and economic victories will be closed to you, and the amount of political influence when trying to accumulate Hegemony Points may slow down greatly, which will also deprive you of this type of victory in the match.

Now let's talk about how to get this debuff on purpose in order to unlock the achievement. Look at the top of the screen.See that blue and white resource? This is your Landsraad Standing points which affects your political power and relations with Landsraad.



How to get Landsraad Pariah intentionally?

• Reduce Landsraad Standing points below 100 anyhow
  
• Treacherously attack another player breaking treaty
  
• Capture several territories of another faction in a short time
  
• Use a high-level operation that directly harms the enemy faction
  
• Use nuclear weapon

Usually the game will notify you in advance that you are doing something very serious and that there will set serious punishment for you, so you will definitely not miss this notification.



In order to unlock this achievement you will need to win the match after you have been under Landsraad Pariah status for more than 30 days, so you must wait a while before ending the match with your victory. It looks like black and red status right after your leader avatar.

Prudent

It is enough to win any win condition by fulfilling these two things:

• You cannot lose a single unit of your army (militia from villages does not count here)
  
• You cannot allow your village to be captured at least once

I guess it is best to do this also in Kalny Duel Mode on an easy difficulty, winning through non-violent ways.

Duelist

Kanly Duel is 1x1 Game Mode with simplified game rules, designed for fast matches.
All other game modes are slow, measured and meditative, but not this time.

In this mode, you have already explored several territories around your base, and all players receive a large supply of initial resources. Units train much faster, and the map is significantly smaller than even the smallest map compared to other modes.

Go to the main menu in the Single Player section and select Kanly Duel. Select a faction, game settings and win match in order to unlock the achievement.

By the way, this mode is suitable for getting other victory achievements, so if you don’t want to take part in long matches and unlock achievements as quickly as possible, then play this mode much more often.

Peaceful Dune

One Against All

Distraction

Some players may unlock this achievement automatically when logging into the game. But if this did not happen to you or the bug was fixed, then here is how you can get this achievement.

No Offense

The description of this achievement may sound rather unpleasant, but this achievement is quite easy to obtain and should not cause any problems.

Start a regular Skirmish match for House Atreides, AI difficulty can be set to “Easy”, other settings like storms, sandworms, etc. can be left as they are. The number of opponents does not matter, but it is obvious that if there is only 1 AI against you, then it will be easier for you to achieve victory in any way. I recommend turning off the Political and Assassinations victory conditions if you`re a new player, so that enemy actions do not come as a surprise to you.



The key to your victory is the House of Atreides ability called “Peaceful Annexation”. Spend 50 Influence and some Authority points to peacefully capture the village and annex it to your territory.



In the early stages of the game, you will lose at the pace of capturing villages, because you are prohibited from attacking both neutral villages and those that have already been captured by other Houses. Influence points at the beginning of the game will accumulate slowly, so rapid expansion at the beginning is not an option. However, with the advance from Development menu, you will quickly catch up with your opponents.

For example, the “Cultural Assimilation” from the Expansion Development branch will reduce the cost for Peaceful Annexation, which will speed up your expansion. Also "Atreides Sympathizers" from Statecraft Development branch can increase influence points productions and etc.

Your troops will only be needed to protect your borders and villages from attacks by other Houses, raiders and other ill-wishers.

The achievement will unlock as soon as you reach the match victory screen, regardless of how you won.

Landsraad's Favorite

Squeeze Hard

Get it over with

Fully Furnished

The House Corrino has an ability that allows you to create a second Main Base on any explored region on the map, even if it is not captured by you. You can perform this after reaching 5 000 Hegemony points and this costs 3 000 Solari and 100 Authority points. The Main Base only has 6 district slots, just like the second one.

Thus, in order to unlock the achievement, you need to completely build up your Main Base, which was placed at the beginning of the match, then place a second base and also completely build it up.

Empire Strikes Back

To achieve this achievement, you must play against an opponent on a higher difficulty than normal. Place House Corrino's second Main Base as close to the enemy lines as possible to make it a desirable target for his army.

It is especially good to set up a base in a strategic region that has important resources. Your base must be destroyed and after that you need to win the match in any way possible.

World Museum

Masterpiece is a unique village sctructure for the Ekaz house. These are small monuments or pillars of which there are three types, one for each category of buildings.

They are cheap and do not bring specific bonuses, but their destruction gives certain penalties to the aggressor. Your task is to build 50 masterpieces in one game match .

This means that you need to capture enough territory to ensure that you can build that many masterpieces. If we assume 3 masterpieces in one territory, then in a normal case you will need to take annex of at least 17 territories.

Fortunately, there is again an opportunity to simplify your task. You need Native Artists Development from the Exploration branch. It will open access to the construction of the Museum of Unboud Arts at your Main Base.

This building removes the limit of Masterpieces in one territory, so now all slots in villages can be filled with Masterpieces only. You can even destroy some unnecessary buildings and replace them with Masterpieces, at least until you unlock the achievement.

Heroic Champion

Another relatively long-term achievement. Let's figure it out. Playing for the Ekaz house, when you reach 5000 Hegemony points, you can choose one of our non-mechanized unit and appoint it as Champion. To do this, you will have a special button when selecting a unit.



From now on until the moment of death, the champion destroying an enemy unit in battle brings you 100 Hegemony points. Do you see what I'm getting at? Yep, now you need to destroy 50 enemy units with your champion.

Here are a few nuances you need to know for this achievement.

• The champion does not have to lasthit an enemy unit, but he must participate in combat and attack the enemy unit at least once before it gets destroyed.
  
• If the Champion stood next to the dead enemy unit, but did not take part in the battle, then you will not receive hegemony points.
  
• It is best to appoint a strong unit, such as a Knight, as the Champion and surround him with an army of other units.
  
• Killing Military Villagers, Raiders and Renegades DOES NOT BRING you Hegemony points. Only units that belong to other factions count.
  
• Force the enemy to fight more often, take the enemy with a numerical advantage, try to make sure that the champion fights, but does not become the target of the enemy’s attack.
  
• Save often. The achievement does not say that 5,000 points must be scored by the same Champion, but I didn’t want to find out separately, so for the entire game I had one single champion.

You can track the number of points your Champion has earned you through kills. Just point at your Hegemony Points and there will be a special section. The achievement will unlock once you get 50 kills.

Sly

Send your spy to the enemy faction and then choose any operation from the list in agents menu.
As soon as the preparation of the operation is completed, all you have to do is activate it.

A special region usually has some natural wonder that distinguishes it from other territories.
The region is also marked with a yellow star and grant you 1000 Hegemony Points when annexed and some othe unique bonuses. Special Regions will randomly spawn around the map at the start of the game. Capture 4 of these territories at once. Here you can find all Special Regions avaiable at the moment.

Obliteration

The main base always has a very high level of protection and HP points, and also has the ability to shoot back when attacked. Therefore, to destroy the enemy base, you need to build a large and strong army.

The elimination of the enemy main base can be made a little easier. For example, House Harkonnen can use Agents to prepare an operation that will increase damage to the enemy's main base by 30%. It's called Defense Breaches. Apply it directly during the final attack and it can lead to the coveted victory and unlocking the achievement.

Full House

Reach 2 500 Hegemony points to unlock disctricts in your main base. Then fill all slots with buildings.

Killer

To assassinate an enemy leader, you need to prepare an operation in the espionage menu. Initially, it is at the very bottom of the list and requires at least level 2 for each of the sectors, including the enemy faction.

Keep in mind that there can be only 3 attempts to kill the leader and there is always a chance that it can fail.

Legal Bond

Click on the enemy leader's avatar in the upper right corner to open the trade menu. Make him a treaty offer and balance this decision or simple agree when enemy leader offers you a treaty himself

Aggressor

When attacking territory already occupied by another faction and destroying resistance, you have 3 options to choose from:

• Pillage
  
• Take control (requires a lot of resources)
  
• Removal of occupation, return to neutral status (then you can capture, it takes less resources, but more time)

You have to choose the second way to unlock this achievement

Way of the Air

Most of your units move very slowly, using the shuttle allows you to quickly redistribute units between key points exactly where they are needed most. Select any unit and press Shuttle button.

Water Bond

Sietches periodically appear on the map, usually you get a notification about this. You can start trading with them to raise relationship level. When it reaches 100 points and If the Sietch is on your territory, then you can send an Agent there to form an alliance and gain certain bonuses.

Honor of Duty

Go to Landsraad menu to see 5 locked charters. One of them leads to a political victory in the match, the rest give advantages under certain conditions



Pick any of that four charters and complete their requirements at least for one to let fractions to choose charter leader



Get elected as charter leader to unlock the achievement.

First Step

Click on your opponent's faction avatar to open the trade and agreements menu. In order to get this achievement, you just need to offer your ally not resources, but treaties (they are located under the resources). If the opposing faction agrees with you, the achievement will unlock.

🌕 Spy Master

Place your agents in special zones so that they can begin their work in the chosen direction. There are 6 such directions in total, but only 5 are important for achievement.

At first, in each direction you will have only one slot for an Agent, but slot amount will increase due to Developments, successful operations and by achieving infiltration level.

Place agents and wait until the level of infiltration in their direction reaches level 3 on its own, then you will receive the achievement.

Prom King

Successful Betrayal/No Mercy for Traitors

You Shall Not Pass

Bringing a Spaceship to a Knife Fight/One in a million

Each faction has its own ultimate unit - the frigate. It has abilities and effects that match its faction, but in order to build it you will need to finish some Developments, accumulate 100 Space Guild Favor Points and 10 mechanical parts.

Just create this machine when playing any faction and the achievement will unlock immediately.

Faction	Frigate	Ability	Screenshot
House Atreides	Kraken	A giant frigate that can transport ground units
House Harkonnen	Overlord	A frigate that controls small but powerful flying drones
House Corrino	Cronos	A frigate with a large powerful AoE attack that regenerates its health out of combat
House Ecaz	Monument	A frigate that increases the attack speed of ally troops and slows down the attack of enemy units around itself
The Smugglers	Wraith:	A frigate that damages the health and supply of ground units in a large area
The Fremen	Altar	A big aircraft that can receive up to two improvements

The second achievement is granted after you destroy this colossus. It has 4 000 HP and a lot of armor, and very often this frigate accompanies the enemy army, so perhaps this achievement would be difficult if not for one important condition.

A frigate can always be bombed with nuclear weapons. Yeah, that's right. A strike with a nuclear warhead deals 5,000 damage, which more than covers the Frigate's HP. So build Nuclear Silo and get yourself a nuclear warhead. Bomb this bastard and show the true mighty of your faction.

Lawful Aggression

🌕 Disobeying The Form

Construct Nuclear Silo building in your village. This will let you to produce nuclear warheads for 5000 Solari. It will take 10 days to create a nuclear warhead, after that time you will be able to use it.

As soon as the warhead is in your hands, simply use it anywhere on the map, preferably away from your territories. The achievement should unlock immediately after the explosion.

Remember that using nuke weaponry put a Landsraad Pariah debuff on your faction till the end of the match so I strictly recommend using nuclear weapons if you intend to finish match through Domination or Assassinations win condition. I talked more about this in the Pariah achievement section.

🌕 Interstellar Transit

Spacing Guild Branch is a unique major building that can be counstructed in one of your villages.
You can found it in Statecraft Buildings section and it is limited only one globally.

Once you build this one the achievement should unlock. By the way this building will need tou to unlock Guild Lackey achievement, read more about it in specific section.

🌕 Shiny New Gear/Ready to Rumble

For this achievement you need to finish 3 researches from Military Developments tab.
They called Survival Training (this one unlocks gear menu for your Military Troops), Army Logistics (unlocks second slot for every non-mechanical troops) and Mechanization (this one requires to set gear for mechanical units).



Go to Armory Menu in the right side of the screen, next to your troops icons. Here you can see all your troops that can be equipped with gear. Pick any of them and buy first gear ever with 500 Solari points to unlock Shiny New Gear

When you`ve done researching developments I mentioned from the start, you will have the opportunity to fill all 10 slots with gear. Remember that each one of them costs 500 Solari, so gain enough of this resource in order to buy full gear for your army.

🌕 Pest Control

At some point in the match, a shuttle with Renegades lands on a random part of the map. The shuttle contains a large army of troops, so attacking their base and destroying it may require a significant investment in your army.

However, if you delay in destroying the base, their raids can become a serious problem for the players adjacent to them. In any case, destroying the Renegades will grant you this achievement and will also give you additional Guild Favor points, which you will need to unlock the Guild Lackey achievement.

Favoritism

After reaching 10k Hegemony, each faction can choose between 2 heroes to recruit as an unit that will influence their whole military strategy:

• House Atreides: Duncan Idaho or Gurney Halleck
  
• House Harkonnen: Glossu Rabban or Iakin Nefud
  
• The Fremen: Chani Kynes or Otheym
  
• House Corrino: Wensicia Corrino or Captain Aramsham
  
• The Smugglers: Drisq or Bannerjee
  
• House Ecaz: Whitmore Bludd or Ilesa Ecaz

🌕 Ghola Hero

Hero Slayer

Everything is as said: kill an enemy hero of any faction in any available way in order to unlock the achievement.

A taste of their own medicine

🌕 Back to School

Complete all these missions to unlock and achievement.

🌕 Greatest House

Over time, you will have different effects that increase the growth of your points. For example, they can be increased through espionage operations.

🌕 Water Seller

100 water resourse is enough. Remember that you will need a lot of buildings that produce water or reduce its cost, as well as research related to water. Capture Polar Sink special region, cause it let you to make a building that give you +50 water.

🌕 Spice Addict

The achievement is not as easy as it may seem: every 25 days the Empire takes a large enough amount of your spice supply and each payout gets bigger, time after time.

Try use different ways to gain Spice:

• Capture several territories with spice deposits
  
• Upgrade Harvesters and add crew to it (4 crewmates max)
  
• Find spice crates with Ornithopter on the map
  
• Don`t sell Spice to the CHOAM for Solaris
  
• Trade Spice from other factions

🌕 Logistician

Open Developments Menu at the top right of the screen. You will see 4 research branches, each of them gives bonuses and profitable improvements in each of the four true ruler arts: Economy, Military, Statecraft and Expansion.

In order to unlock this achievement, you need to study all the developments from the top right technology tree — Military Developments.

🌕 Economist

Open Developments Menu at the top right of the screen. You will see 4 research branches, each of them gives bonuses and profitable improvements in each of the four true ruler arts: Economy, Military, Statecraft and Expansion.

In order to unlock this achievement, you need to finish all the developments from the top left technology tree — Economic Developments.

Analyst

Open Developments Menu at the top right of the screen. You will see 4 research branches, each of them gives bonuses and profitable improvements in each of the four true ruler arts: Economy, Military, Statecraft and Expansion.

In order to unlock this achievement, you need to finish all the developments from the bottom left technology tree — Statecraft Developments.

🌕 Sociologist

Open Developments Menu at the top right of the screen. You will see 4 research branches, each of them gives bonuses and profitable improvements in each of the four true ruler arts: Economy, Military, Statecraft and Expansion.

In order to unlock this achievement, you need to finish all the developments from the bottom right technology tree — Expansion Developments.

🌕 Half a World

Even if you play on a small map against one player, the number of regions is quite enough to capture 30 of them. Considering that the more of them you control, the higher the consumption of Authority points, so try to increase your receipt of this resource throughout the match.

🌕 Guild Lackey

One of the most annoying achievements in the game. The problem is that there are no effective passive sources to gain in in the game; almost always you will have to collect it literally bit by bit.

This resource is used to build combat mechanical units and the faction’s ultimate weapon, the Frigate. Therefore, even a small amount of this resource is already very good and there is never an excess of it.

Fortunately, even after you have already won the match, you can continue the match, set the game speed to x2 and just wait until the resource accumulates by itself. Let's look at how you can receive Space Guild Favor.

Build the Spacing Guild Branch. This is a unique building that can only be one in the entire faction. It allows you to trade Spice or Influence with the Space Guild. The Space Guild itself can also provide you with a large amount of Water or Mechanical parts. If you provide resources to the Guild, this gives you +1 to the accumulation of Favor Points. But if you also ask them for a resource, then this gives -1, so it is worth periodically canceling trade with them in order to continue to slowly accumulate the resource.
Find and capter Space Cruiser Wreck special region. From time to time Scrap Piles can be found on this territory, so you can send an Agent or a squad of soldiers to collect it. In any case, you will receive 10 Favor points for each collected Scrap, which is already very good. If you come across this region on the map, this can significantly speed up obtaining the achievement. Thanks to it, I was able to accumulate 500 points in single 2-hour match.
If you are unlucky with special region, then another way to get Favor Points is to destroy the Renegades. I already wrote about this above in the Pest Control achievement. For destroying each renegade unit you will receive 2 Favor Points, and for destroying their base you will grant 30 Points at a time.

In this way, sooner or later you should accumulate 500 points and unlock the achievement.

Thank you for the "Insanity" ahievement method! Followed it to the letter, and everything played out just like you've described! Fremen got the knife first, then Ecaz got uppity with their hegemony, but they too had a knife accident, and the last were the inhabitants of Sietch Tuek, who survived this long only because they were lagging far behind other factions.
They did try to assasinate my Baron, but were stupid enough to take the bribe and back off the attempt. So they got the knife instead!

Hello everyone! I've got trouble with getting "No mercy for traitor" achievement. As far as I'm concerned you must be attacked by AI while you're in truce with it, but they always break the truce legally even when I surround the enemy main base and put my units nearby to attack me. Does anyone have a solution? Thank you.

Thanks for the help.

Yes, it is working with AI players. Here you have to reach the same goal as for the Governor victory achievement, but now you have to make votes for you ally faction and still win the match in any way, such as Hegemony or CHOAM victory.

How to complete this achievement? Doesn't this work with bots? How do you achieve this achievement?

While I'm not interested in knowing how to achieve Steam achievements I did find this to be an extremely informative guide for me as a beginner. I'm playing a kanly game against House Vernius and they slapped a patent on a military tech that requires me to pay 500 solaris to House Vernius in order to research it. I searched for patent in discussions and then guides and this was the only place that gave me a good quick answer. I'm impressed that Xealeen has maintained this excellent guide by including new info from the latest DLC and major update. I liked and gave this a favorite rating, perhaps the best game guide I've ever seen for any game.

Sure, in progress.
