Finished the campaign while having no more than one hired merc at the same time.
This achievement can be achieved with Dynamic Duo and Bullet Proof

Note: IMP/Larry/Smiley/Flay/Pierre/Spike is counted as merc. So recruit them when you have another merc will lock this achievement

Tips: For this achievement, I used stealth build Ivan. I dismiss Ivan for repairing/modifying weapons/armor then recruit him back.

  • Lure enemies to retreat then kill them and retreat.
  • You can shoot directly to a door to unlock it
  • You can use retreat to move to another sector without clearing current sector (Thanks @DeusVult Joker remind me about this)

The major battle tip
You can stealth kill 10 enemies before the fight so you can begin battle with 18 enemies left. This will help the battle become easier.

You can throw remote explosion near major camp and move back to southwest Machine Gun Nest of the sector. You also can throw some proximity explosion at the red circle in the screenshot to help battle easier. Reload all your gun with Armor piecing ammo then use remote to start the battle. Hide behind sandbags and kill enemies, if your stealth kill failed and you become exposed, you need to prone and hide again.

Follow-up: OK, I managed to get the Long Shot achievement with the MGL as you explained.
Baraz Sep 25 @ 7:11pm 
For the Long Shot, I have tried sniping beyond my range for more battles than I can count, used underbarrel grenades at maximum range, mortar, RPG. I have not tried the MGL yet (the special weapon that fires only grenades).

It feels bugged to me, but will continue trying.

I got the Say My Name achievement by, in order:
Made Bastien work for me in the Refugee Camp
Hired Graaf as a Foreman
Stealth Killed Lurch AND took out the Shotgun. I think the shotgun must be taken to trigger the achievement.
Qipchak Jan 21, 2024 @ 9:28am 
I just got the Say my name achievement.

I did the thing with Bastien and hired the Slavemaster. But i never met Blaubert and never went to Port Cacao.
But i let Biff die and executed Chimurenga after i refused to give him the Green Diamond. Then i slaughtered all communists by taken the mine. My guess is the execution was the trigger.

In Major's camp you can retreat up-until you haven't started combat. Therefore you can clear most of his men in a few stealth run. Just kill 3-4 peeps on the 4 south spot then retreat. rinse and Repeat till there is no stealth killable enemies left. At that point you only need to kill like 5-6 peeps up at the tent.

What about the 5 hidden achievments of the game. I uncovered one of them, take 5 times the psycho choice in a dialog
Toni Oct 22, 2023 @ 5:53pm 
@Bortedet - For "Just A Flesh Wound", it DOES work using grenades on your own mercs. My guess is that when you tried it, you did not do 300+ damage in ONE TURN. It will likely require 2 - 3 grenades on a group of 6. More Mercs = less grenades required assuming you hit them all. In any case, I just verified this method myself yesterday, so it works up through patch 1.2.2 (October '03).

To anyone/everyone - Just wanted to mention that the "Psycho" achievement can be cheesed. Find any Psycho dialogue choice which remains available to say again and then spam it over and over until the achievement pops. I found this out because I was doing a run specifically for "Time is Money" and hadn't picked up Psycho yet. In my case, I used "Corazon H4: You are not talking your way out of this" from the guide above since I skipped or missed almost everything before that point.

Not like it's all that hard to get, but figured this might be useful information for someone at any rate.

I have never completed all achievements in any game I have ever played, and I am sure I won't in JA3 either, but it is fun to read about them all. Thanks!

Hello, I would like to share that attacking C7U is counted for "Say my name" achievement
Shivan Reaper Aug 28, 2023 @ 5:36pm 
Apparently there are more than 4 morally bad things for Say My Name, as I just got it on a save where I kill the slave master and didn't kill lurch. It popped for me after forcibly taking the pantagruel mine, as due to some circumstances, I couldn't get it normally.
