Reloading the game will bring you back to the start of your turn. Quickly pause > hit the guide button > press start on xcom2 > quit. For example, if you're in a battle and your strongest character dies that you've named after your BFF/GF/BF/whatever and spent hours customising them to make them look super-cool. While you can't 'save and load' in the traditional sense, you can quit the game and reload back up. For the love of all that is good don't try this as your first playthrough (even if you've played xcom 1!) You cannot change difficulty of the game at any point (it will warn you in-game changing difficulty will disable achievements)

only using 4 squad members, not letting a single solider die, etc) but this would only make it a lot harder and more frustrating so i'd strongly advise against it. This can be done in combination with other achievements (e.g. This can be done on commander or legend difficulty (if you're REALLY looking for a challenge) Avatar meter being full) you will fail the game entirely and will have to totally restart from the beginning potentially losing 20+ hours of gameplay. If you fail the game for whatever reason (e.g. at the start of your turn during battle) and the autosave option makes no difference. The game will save at certain points automatically (e.g. Ironman is a game mode where you can only save once. They are nice little benefits but consider it more of a cherry-on-top rather than essential must know what they do things.OK so there's no solution already on here and I suppose there can't really be a 'solution' for this achievement as such, so I thought i'd post some helpful hints and advice. The extra EW material such as gene mods and mecs you can just read up. You may want to run through all of the council missions once in your EU campaign so you have an idea what to expect when those council missions come back with an bang in LW. Do plenty of reading on the mechanics and strategies in the base/globe view and you should be just fine. If you're able to run through classic difficulty on regular xcom, then go ahead and pop open Long War. Since other people brought up whether you should play another playthrough of EW, I'll give my thoughts on it. Since psychics and officers (which replaced the medal system) are incompatible in LW, you probably cannot get this achievement in LW. Some may be impossible such as "Guardian of Earth" which requires you to have a fully decorated soldier be the volunteer. From what I understand you can still get most of the achievements.
