How do i unlock the one achievement in the game?!?!?

I think that's a place holder achievement meant to keep us focused on playing the Alpha. Like a carrot dangled just beyond reach.

No no no... you can get the achievement by donating a few million dollars to Stardock... check payable to me and you'll get the achievement after the check has cleared the bank....

or what Ryat said.

Why would they be so mean!

I thought achievements were a Steam thing and couldn't be obtained during Beta testing.

It is a steam thing, but the developers can set them to be achieved (did it during the FE Beta, or LH, I forget which)

They should put in a placeholder achievement "Participated in the Alpha Test".  It would get permanently disabled upon Beta stage and we Elite Founders could feel even more Elite!  Maybe even make a Beta achievement, too.

Yea, I want to feel as special as I did on prom night. Lol

There are various unscrupulous tools one may employ to unlock achievements which I do not recommend you use.

If you do, I will relish mocking you on teh Steam VAC Discussion Hub.

The achievement is only there to torment achievement-obsessed people.

Though all you guys, willing to participate in testing a game (any game) should be given rewards. I certainly don't have nor the time nor the will.
