Save, attack, reload your save, try again, and repeat. All your moves must be efficient, as a little mistake (or miss) can destroy everything. KILL PACT Support Units. Buy every upgrade (MIRV Torpedo license and Vanguard cannon upgrade must have) for Sunrider and other Riders, choose wisely, how to upgrade your Riders (upgrade your healer, your tank, flak capabilities and overall survival). This is not an easy mod for sure.

Complete a battle while ignoring one of your Ryders.
In first battle, simply ignore one of your riders.

Hit 8 units at once.
Vanguard cannon is your best friend here. You can do this, in one of the first fights on lower difficulty, or just normally while you playing.

Use vanguard cannon + kill some more units.
People Die When They Are Killed

Easily done in second mission (ionstorm). You don’t need to buy them.

Kill a PACT support with melee.
Icary for the win.

Use short range warp 3 times in the same turn.
In any battle, if you have already 4000 CMD points, just use ‘Short Range Warp’ three times (2250 CMD points in total).
All For One
Put all debufs (except Disable) on the same enemy.
The fastest way to get it is in second fight (in the ionstorm), use Cera Gunboat for ‘Suppress’, Chigara for ‘Flakoff’ and ‘Shutoff’ and Bianca for ‘Aim Down’ on single enemy.
Natural Enemy
Kill 2 PACT support units in the same turn with Sola.
You need to upgrade Energy reactor for Seraphim, to be able to do 2 shoots in the same turn.
Phoenix Down
Revive the Phoenix twice in the same battle.
In any battle just rush Phoenix into enemy units (if you have 2500 CMD points already), resurrect her for the first time and move her to enemy units again. Collect another 2500 CMD points and resurrect her again.
What Are You Implying?
Have both the Phoenix and the Paladin end their turns next to each other every turn for an entire battle
Liberty or Death
Repair 50’000 hp in battle with the Liberty.

Gather all of your units close to each other and wait for missile from PACT Destroyer (can be achieved in second battle).

Kill 30 units with melee.
Icary for the win. Upgrade her Raider and go kill them all. Or just try using Asaga’s rider while in Awakening.
By the Skin of Our Teeth
Win a battle with only the Sunrider left alive.
If you don’t get this normally, start a new game on easy difficulty and do it in the first mission.
I Have the Power!
Get 10 stacks of ‘Awakening’ on Asaga.
You get 1 stack of ‘Awakening’ every turn, so you need to survive 10 turns for this. Each turn Black Jack HP will be decreasing, so you need someone with Repair skill. Use Chigara Repair skill for healing Black Jack (you may also upgrade her energy limit for two repairs in a row).
Black Jack
Perform exactly 21 attacks with Black Jack in a battle.
You need to do exactly 21 attacks (or moves) in battle. When you counted 21 attacks, stop using Asaga, and clear level with another unit.
Hello Nurse
Have Bianca use Restore on an allied unit afflicted by all possible debuffs.
Best way to do it in first battle for Cera, where you have at least six Pact Support units. Try to destroy all others units except supports and leave at least 2-3 your own units (like Claude / Sunrider (for flack debuff) / someone third). To trigger this achievement you will need to remove ‘Disable Lite’, ‘Shut Off’ and ‘Flak Off’ from a single unit using Claude’s restore.
One For All
Put 5 different buffs on the same friendly unit.
Basically the most needed thing is to purchase Ongessite Injection Rods from the store, but they will only be available if you chose the option to ‘cover up’ the events at Ongess in the first game. So if you don’t have save with that, start a new game and choose this option in the decision table. The buffs you need are: All power to engines (Order) – this one from Ongess (just buy in the store), Full Forward or All Guard (Order), Stealth or Drawfire (Icari or Kryska), Aim Up (Chigara), Damage Up (Claude).
Vengeance
Kill 1000 enemies
You probably get this playing normally, but you can also farm this in any mission where PACT have Carriers to summon units.

If you want to do Penny Pincher, just buy any merc and reload save.
