Much like with the Idea Suggestion Compilation Thread, this thread will be one for achievements; both for archiving purposes and to hopefully help the devs and other user to find them easier. I'll do my best to copy any ones I see here, but if I've missed any or if you have any ideas of your own, please feel free to contribute (specific details would be appreciated)!

I think there should be more achievements related to random new world, as of now we have only 1 achievement called "where am I".


Scramble for Europe - Starting as a nation with High american tech in a random new world conquer western Europe. (can't be custom nation)

Inca in other dimension - Starting as a nation with inti religion and andean tech in a random new world conquer new world. (can't be custom nation)
(added andean tech requirement so that it cannot be combined with "Scramble for europe").

Unique land, unique goods
Starting with Mesoamerican tech in a random new world, be production leader of 7 trade goods.

I also think those achievements could be fun:

Pagan collector - have at least 1 of each pagan religion as a vassal or tributary with less than 50% liberty.
(With random new world it's much easier to do it, since Vinland, a nordic religion nation, can exist, otherwise you have to become norse as a scandinavian nation and get a norse vassal by force converting it).

Fetishist frendship - Starting as Waleyta or Janjiro be allied to 6 fetishist nations outside Golden horn region before 1500
(You cannot change religion)
(fetishist nations you allied can't have their capitals in Golden horn region, it's to prevent realease of converted nations)

Islamic diversity - Starting as Hadiya have vassals of each religious school, with below 50% liberty desire.
(Hadiya starts as a vassal of Ethiopia).

African Lion - as Shewa own 40 provinces outside golden horn before 1550.
(Shewa is a nation which doesn't exist at 1444, but has cores in Ethiopia, it has a flag with a lion).

I'm Henry's Eighth I Am : As King of England, execute at least 8 wives.
Since most achievements are now so meme-y as-is.
Isn't this basically just Chop, Chop?

Well, "Chop, Chop" allows any range of possible actions for a single Monarch to have 6 different Consorts - be it through natural death, execution, divorce, etc.

Not that I expect my suggestion to gain any traction - I was just reinforcing the Meme Theme around here...

I've always thought an achievement around Ming conquering the world would be fun and challenging.

It's an end tag so you have to do it all as Ming, no horde or Qing/Yuan ideas, you also have to deal with the Mandate etc so not as easy a proposition as it seems.

It's also a pretty neat alt history idea, what if Ming had decided to set itself on an outwards facing path rather than the path it followed in our timeline...

I sometimes think decent achievements don't get created if there's not a snappy name for it :)

I'm thinking ...

* Middle Earth Kingdom
* Who needs a Wall ?

Horrible idea. Carthago Delenda Est is one of THE worst achievements in the game with 100% devastation requirement alone. Sorry to be rude, but this achievement can be hunted by the prisoners in Guantanamo.
Carthago Delenda Est is super easy to get if you only aim for it. Just take Tunis region and spam bunkrupsies... kek
Just follow the same strategy
 
Indo-greek Empire: As Aphganistan, Baluchistan, Transoxiana or Sistan own all of the lands of Indo-greek Kingdom, achieve empire goverment rank and adopt any buddhist religion as your state religion.
