Achievements (EU2012)

Achievements are separate goals or personal achievement trophies that you can earn as you play the game. These are obtained automatically through the normal progression of the game or by performing difficult tasks under harsh conditions.

These achievements provide no direct in-game benefits and can be collected at your leisure. They are mainly provided for players that wish to collect everything that can be collected and to perform everything that can be conceivably performed in the game.
