Good day Achievement Hunters and Gamers alike, this will be a big three parts guide. The game has several of issues specifically the Geminipedia but gameplay wise nothing is broken. Only one side mission is broken.

I will not cover much on 3 dlc due to issues I been having. These are : Endpoint, Rise of Numibia, and Titans Returns.


Here are the guides :

General Gameplay Issues
In this section will reveal certain flaws this game has and if so, a temporary fix.


Save and Load

- You may not save during combat or during a freelance mission (auto failure when loading the save), not a real issue for me but maybe for other.

-You may save during free roaming, during main or side mission so long your not in combat or at the destinated area.

- Loading a save during a mysterious signal or free roaming will generate another setting in other words derelicts, anomalies, containers or ship encounter tied to mysterious signal with will be gone.

The upside are you can generate random ship encounter, any mined asteroid will respawn instantly. Any Station, Structure, Fleets/Warmasters, or Bounty location on the Starcharts will still be there.

- It is possible to transfer your Geminipedia to another new game including Conquest, Challenge and Custom Mode by doing : load the latest save with all Geminipedia>Menu>New Game>[insert game mode]>Start.

- Any previous save after adding or removing a dlc will render those save inert due to conflict of version. It will still be in the Saves folder.


Playing almost like Freelancer

Want to see the world that does not flip flop by any Faction power hungry for new zones to call their own? Don't want to make your own base of operation and just want to free roaming at every where you can go? Perhaps you just want to collect resources before the storm?

Yes you can by doing the following : Do not recruit any Warmasters and do not go where Trace is at the yet to completed Mining operation in Mission 06 any further will spawn fleets and Warmasters (be careful, Mysterious Signal will remove Main Quest marker but Trace should still be there. Just to be safe make back up saves).


Adding and Removing Dlc into the Base Game

Beware that adding or removing dlc will render save game inert.

Ghost Faction seem impossible to find it in the base game, it is best to have Cycle of Warfare dlc to speed up the completion of the Faction in Geminipedia and unlock Ghost Faction.

The base game can easily take +35 hours should you decide to explore the entire map of Campaign.

Deadly Dozen, Titans Return, Cycle of Warfare, and Endpoint will partially add on the base game and Rise of Numibia.

Rise of Numibia do not add to the base game (Campaign) and the base game partially remove/add to Rise of Numibia. You must start from scratch in another map in Custom mode by choosing :
Rise of Numibia - Basic Start, Rise of Numibia, or Hold Your Ground.


Campaign

At some point you will destroy Edea, rebuilding then loading a save after the reconstruction will make it set back to not built. There is no fix for this.


Verify Cache

This does f*** all, it only reset your custom keybinds and no it does not fix any other issue.
100% Achievement/Perfect Game, is it possible?
Unfortunately it is not possible to 100% all the achievements. I have found few ways to get all but one achievement : Analyst.

Due to the developers with an apparent lack of time to fix the Geminipedia, do not expect any fix at anytime.


Why is Analyst not achievable.

Structures : Ion Storm Inhibitor

&

Other : ?

are not unlockable or missing.


There is also Ghost faction that is not unlockable with the base game, to circumvent read down below.


====================================================


Here are the dlc you want to add :

Cycle of Warfare

Why? You can unlock 57/61 Factions by starting the A'shiari Conquest mode. It will allow you to unlock the infamous Ghost Faction that seem to be nowhere to be found in the base game.


====================================================


Here are the dlc that are optional :


Upgrade to Digital Deluxe

It does not do anything for the base game or the gameplay for that matter.


Deadly Dozen

This will add 3 new ships, a dozen Bounty, and a possible recruitable Warmaster. The Perun can be found by eliminating the last Deadly Dozen Bounty, Diana Daze. Deadly Helios and Deadly Premonition can only be bought and unlock with the use of Holo Decoy skill.


Endpoint

There are new ships and new story but nothing that would effect the achievements.


====================================================


Here are the dlc that are problematic :


Rise of Numibia

The main issue I have are Faction not unlocking : Numibia, Highland, Eastland, and Tswana. There was a time where I did unlock it but I believe it is a one time unlock before it bug.


Titans Returns

I have yet to test it but I can assume the same with Rise of Numibia. Nyxian Dominion and Core Worlds Alliance unlock one time before it bug.


====================================================


Here are thing that can be easily miss :
  • Chassis Scarlet
  • Chassis Arokk
  • Chassis Vakal
  • Chassis Loki B
  • Backstabbing Burrha achievement
  • Take the bull by the horns achievement
Recruitable War Masters Location (incomplete)
There are 5 recruitable including one from Deadly Dozen dlc. The Warmasters will be 2 levels below you this means they can be a powerful allies if you max out your level before recruiting them.



[insert character image]

Name : Tara Higgs
Where : Phaehana Region, HQ - Concordia.


She will be available during Mission 06 when Trace command you to take over a Revenants Forward Outpost.



[insert character image]

Name : Laenard Maxton
Where : Maginot Barony Region, Planet Baeldor.


Mission 08, Trace will inform you Laenard would like to speak with you if you have the time to meet him in Baeldor. Once you are through the dialogue, he need a ship to become a Warmaster (Shipbuilding menu>Concordia).



[insert character image]

Name : Nyca
Where : Phaehana Region, HQ - Concordia.


During Mission 09, Corlina Rayne will try to offer you a peaceful solution in exchange for Nyca. Do not take that offer, fight her and Runner. This of course will void you from achieving Backstabbing Burrha achievement.

Mission 10, Trace mention that Nyca may join you however once you enter Concordia, Mission 10 will start and you may no longer enter it in till you finish it.

Mission 11, if your still in the Apollo class destroyer a dialogue with Nyca will commence that is where she may be recruited to be your Warmaster.



[insert character image]

Name : Victor Anders
Where : Phaehana Region, Planet Phaeneros.


After beating from easy to impossible level in Gladiatrix arena near Planet Phaeneros, a message from Trace that he will tell you a person is interested in meeting you at Phaeneros.

Hidden and Missable Achievements
These 3 achievements are hidden and tied to the main campaign. Two of them can be miss if you do not follow as instructed.



A Moment of Anticipation
Delay activating the Proxima Beam for 60 seconds after it charges
- This can be done in any playthrough you have built Proxima and about to fire its canon.

You will need to fully charge the Proxima (Fire button) and wait for over 60 seconds, than fire it. The achievement will pop.

In Mission 17 you will have the opportunity to fire the Proxima, and if you happen to miss it than you must conquer a planet with Proxima and repeat the same process mention above.


Backstabbing Burrha
You've "backstabbed" the person with whom you're conversing during a certain main quest
- This happen during Mission 09 and can be easily miss as most would choose to fight.

Nyca would present you Runner for help, only to be betrayed. You will converse with Corlina Rayne in which you must choose :

1. You've done your homework. But I don't see how that helps you here.

She than offer you a deal, she wants Nyca. Again, choose :

2. Fine You can have her. She's been nothing but trouble anyway. Lieutenant...

This achievement will pop as soon you face Runner. You may now load a previous save to save Nyca and get her as a Warmaster.


Pay Your Respects
Visit the old Landmark
- Not missable, head at Nexus Approach Region where lies the Catapult ruin.


Or a slight alternative way, in a main mission you will be ask to visit Planet Sora and given a chance to : help by fighting for them or sneak behind them and get the sample.

In my honest opinion, it is not worth sneaking behind them just to get the sample and visiting the Catapult can be done at anytime. Of course it depend what kind of Warlord you are.

Yes I believe they will be 2 level behind your main character once you first acquire them, otherwise you will need them fight more often to gain new levels.

Also the Warmasters level up, so it doesn't matter what level you are when you get them.

So I dont know if you will ever read this Ashfall, but i figured out a way to get the last two entries. Technicaly it´s a bit of a cheat but what is one to do? I used the program notepad++ to have a poke around the game files. Wanted to fix the bug. Turns out i am not good with with that. Its easier to just open the save file with notepad++ serach for gemipedia and set the corresponding entries to 1 (true) yourself. The entries are called " SRT_ION_STORM_INHIBITOR" and "OTH_union". Tested it and can works. I have the achievments. Wanted to find out what trigers "The Union Problem" so you can add in your guide but no luck. Hope this helps you out and any future players
