Plan achievements in separate groups: story completion, squad actions, aircraft and equipment collection, viewer tools, medals, and Ace difficulty/ranks. Steam metadata explicitly includes Free Mission in the Ace all-S objective. A story clear alone does not complete the purchase, record and rank goals.

Build a useful collection checklist
| Group | Tasks to track |
|---|---|
| Story | Prologue and numbered mission completion |
| Squad | Kills after Forward Atk, Dispersed Atk and Cover; special-weapon kills; buying a wingman copy |
| Collection | Aircraft types, special weapons, parts and accumulated MRP |
| Tools | Aircraft preview, replay viewing and a skin/emblem customization |
| Advanced | Ace campaign completion, Ace all-S ranks, medals and assault records |
The Steam descriptions supply these task facts. They do not establish how every full-run medal handles checkpoint restarts or whether every task can be combined into one run.
A sensible order for your own save
- Complete the story and learn the mission objectives.
- Use squad commands deliberately while tracking the corresponding actions.
- Inspect your owned aircraft, equipment and displayed collection progress before spending.
- Try the viewer and customization features for their separate goals.
- Choose the difficulty and exact missing ranks for a replay session.
This order is editorial planning, not a tested fastest route. Keep full-run challenge medals on separate checklists. A successful all-S replay does not prove a guns-only campaign shortcut.
Use the guide for your remaining goal
For ranks, see Free Mission and the all-S objective, then the Mission 28 reports. For spending, compare squad copy costs and equipping parts. For accumulated currency, use MRP Aplenty.
No overall completionist time, online-boosting requirement or cross-platform trophy identity is inferred from the Steam list. If a reward is missing, record its exact description and your actual result rather than relying on a similar older-game trophy.
