Sunrider Legends Tactics Beginner Guide & – Full Achievements
Story Achievements
These unlock naturally as you progress, though some are mutually exclusive and will require either multiple playthroughs or careful save management.
- Sargasso Path
When you first encounter Cosette’s ship, the Havoc, choose to board it instead of scuttling. Recruit Cosette and keep the Havoc intact (don’t let it sink or disable permadeath in settings). Later, after you recruit Sola, Cosette will kidnap Asaga instead of Cullen. Follow the story from there to earn this achievement. - The Hero of Far Port
Automatically awarded for completing the defense mission at Far Port. - Liberation Day
Near the end, choose to go to Ryuvia instead of Far Port. - Rescue Dad
Choose the Far Port path instead of Ryuvia. - Bad End
Skip the River of the Dead side mission and pick the Ryuvia path late-game. The ending will trigger this achievement. - Normal End
Two ways to unlock:- Complete River of the Dead and then follow the Ryuvia path.
- Take the Far Port route (the side mission doesn’t matter here).
- Character Endings
To unlock these, you need to achieve the True Ending in New Game+. Recruit every character (see section below), complete the path that normally leads to the Normal Ending, and after the credits you’ll get to pick a character for a special epilogue scene. Each one grants its own ending achievement.
Character Recruitment & Related Achievements
Recruiting certain characters is straightforward, while others require specific missions or choices.
- Ava – Starting unit.
- Asaga – Automatically joins.
- Chigara – Automatically joins.
- Maray – Keep her ship alive during the escape from Cera. If it sinks, the story treats her as dead even with permadeath disabled. Unlocks Recruit Maray.
- Icari – Automatic.
- Kryska – Automatic.
- Claude – Automatic.
- Sola – Automatic.
- Lynn – Complete the Fox Call side mission after Far Port.
- Qisah – Unlocked through a chain of missions starting with Investigate Cera (after Far Port).
- Cosette – Tricky one. Toss the Dreadstone when given the choice (you’ll lose a side mission, a CG, and Claude affection points). Later follow the Sargasso steps, then you’ll face new scenes and a forced battle. Choose to defy fate, win the fight, and she permanently joins, unlocking Recruit Cosette.
- Miirage – Only available in New Game+. Unlock the colosseum by completing Qisah’s chain, then defeat Miirage’s team and clear the next stage. Unlocks Recruit Miirage.
- Jem’hyre – After Miirage, return to the colosseum and defeat Jem’hyre to recruit her.
- Kuushana – After Jem’hyre, challenge the colosseum one last time in a naval battle against Kuushana’s forces. Win to recruit her.
Other Achievements & Fun Secrets
- Beeg Toast
Once baking is unlocked, craft it with: water, flour, yeast, oil, sugar, cocoa, cream, and canned fruit. - The Cake is Real
Same as above, but substitute eggs for oil. - We Are Starnova!
In the stage where you recruit Sola, send a fast ship north-right toward wreckage above the starting area. You’ll trigger hidden chibi Starnova girls and earn the achievement. - Look at Me, I’m the Captain Now
In that same Sola stage, when Crow Harbor and the Imperium appear, board and capture Crow’s ship instead of sinking it. This is tough (he has 1000 HP early on), but repeated boarding and debuffs like Chainshot help.
Secrets & New Game+ Extras
- Bad Ending Reward
Completing the Bad End unlocks the Black Iron Gun (BIG), the strongest base cannon, for all save files—including new ones. In NG+, you can stack more BIGs each time you replay. - Extra Ships in NG+
NG+ introduces additional ships named after Sunrider units. They’re not unique in combat but often carry strong upgrades. Many maps after the Talbur arc hide at least one—use Lynn’s special command to reveal them. - Shellshot Buff
In NG+, Shellshot has a hidden property: extra accuracy (often rivaling Chainshot) in addition to bonus cannon damage. It can even outperform Roundshot in some situations.
That’s every achievement, secret, and unlockable currently available in Sunrider Legends Tactics. If you want 100% completion, you’ll likely need multiple runs—especially since some endings and characters are locked to New Game+. But that’s also the fun of it: experimenting with routes, building up your fleet, and discovering hidden extras with each playthrough.
