Master of Command Achievements & Trophy Guide

Commanding your way through this campaign takes more than luck. Master of Command rewards careful planning, resource management, and pure endurance. If you’re aiming for 100 percent completion, this list breaks down every trophy and achievement from beginner milestones to the brutal Ironman runs.

How to Unlock Master of Command

The Master of Command achievement unlocks after you beat the game on Ironman mode with all difficulty modifiers active. That means no manual saves, permanent consequences, and a full stack of active debuffs. You’ll need to plan every battle and campaign move with precision.

Each faction must finish its campaign under these Ironman conditions to earn their specific 5-modifier achievements. When every campaign is done, the Master of Command trophy unlocks automatically. Prepare for long sessions, because a single mistake can end an entire run.
