Getting in a fight will be enough to get this achievement, doesn't need to hurt others or get hurt

Get a radio

Explore locations and interact with story-items (those with magnifying glass icon)

Have 2 person on guard duty for a night.

Have enough supply to fulfill the addictions of all your characters for 1 day.

Build Moonshine Still from Simple Workshop(lv1) and use it to distill Moonshine.

The goal is to reach a certain level of comfort, you can check it when you open the inventory screen in base. The orange text tells you the current comfort and the wall of text below gives you hints on how to improve it.
Here are a few things that increase comfort:

• Build Enough bed for people
  
• Armchairs
  
• Guitar will help
  
• Have a radio
  
• Decent amount of books

Whenever it starts snowing, you'll get this on the second day of winter. One easy way to get this is keep restarting the game until you get snow on day 1, then you'll get it on day 2

Visit all possible location in game. It should be doable across multiple playthroughs. I personally did it across three different playthoughs.

Get a lv4 sick(Terminally sick) person back to normal. Besides keeping the sick warm and well fed, I'd recommend stocking up massive amount of medical supply and have a dedicated bed for the sick before attempting.

Get a lv4 wounded(Lethally wounded) person back to normal

Get a broken character back to depress state or above with only talking and good deeds. It'll be award at the start of next day after the talk/good deed. It doesn't matter if character dies at the exact same time (such as wounds). killing 3 or more people should bring a character from normal to max "depressness"(broken).

Simply beat the game(it's very hard actually XD). The amount of days you have to wait until the war ends is randomize, so far players report it can vary between 25 days and 46 days. The radio will announce the war will be over soon a few days in advance.

Get through the crime outbreak period without getting robbed, getting rob before that period will not affect it.
*community reports deaths of initial dweller(s) before/during outbreak will fail the achievement A few hints about raiding:

• When you upgrade workshop to lv2, you'll find a board up options(up to 3 times), the more you board up holes on walls the less you get raids.
  
• Having people on guard at night will have a greater chance of stopping stuff being stolen if raid happens. 2 or more people on guard when the crime rate spike.
  
• Having weapons/armors in your base stockpile will affect how well your in-base character defend themselves and not get hurt. Note that things like shovel and crowbar counts as weapons, and are great for early game defense

Get through winter without deaths
*community reports deaths of initial dweller(s) before winter will fail the achievement mini tips:
If you do not have access to lv2 heater, try building two lv1 heater instead. It will burn more wood but it is probably better than getting sick.

Every initial dwellers survive the whole war.

Safe at last, I looked back at the burning city and wept. I wished that all who wanted to leave it could do so. Escape from Pogoren.

After you met a person in the "Port" location, he'll offer you a chance to leave the city for a price of 8 diamonds. A quick way to get diamonds is to include "sniper junction (sniper event)" in a custom game. Saving the father will reward you with 5 diamonds.

Simply start the game with the "War Child Charity" DLC.

They can be found in specific locations, entering the location alone is not enough, the character has to be near it. From top left to bottom right of the list:
1 - Shelled cottage (First room from entrance)
2 - Abandoned Cottage ([locked] locked room second floor)
3 - Ruined Block of Flats (First floor right-most)
4 - Super Market (right-most outer wall facing cargo container)
5 - Shelled School ([shovel recommended] underground first floor, right of elderly couples)
6 - City Hospital ( top floor right-most room)
7 - Brothel (rooftop between 2 buildings, on the wall facing left)
8 - Garage ([saw blade] room with staircase & window)
9 - Warehouse (basement left-most room)
10 - Semi Detached House (ruined building second floor middle room)

*Some user did not get the achievement when they should. One possible fix is to start a new game and view any graffiti once more. Another user suggest that it has the be the same character the visit all of them.

Attacking a place that shelters a kid… Atrocious! We stand together to protect our little one! Successfully repel a raid while a child is in the group, without any injuries.

We wish we could be kids again and have fun with practically nothing. Let the child craft a toy at the workshop.

Kids… they sometimes seem to be far away from this war. It’s heartwarming.
*Best done in conjunction with [Note: No More Tears] The goal is to make the child's mood to be "Content". Making sure the child is well fed and healthy, talk and play with the child as much as possible. The child as well as adults can build toys to play with.
Note that certain action/event will decrease the child's happiness:

• Have the child work.
  
• Dweller dieing.
  
• Stealing or killing during scavenging.
  
• fail to repel raid.
  
• Events that results in suffering of others.

Solidarity. That’s the first thing we have to teach to our children. Have the child learn a few skills and preform the learnt task, you can teach at work stations. It seems like you'll need to need to teach around 5 skills, just keep teaching and asking the child to work will eventually award the achievement.

We made it! Schools will reopen soon. From now on, kids will live a normal life again. Keep the child alive till the end of game.

At least the kid has a new playmate. Maybe it will even be a break from our daily routine here. Create a bond between a child and another person. There seems to be mutiple version of how to unlock this reported by different players.One of them is to just keep interacting with the child, preferably the same person and the achievement should be rewarded. Note that this is a slow process, a very vague reference duration would be around 5 days.
The other reported way is to have a new person joins the house and have the new guy be friendly to the child.

Nothing is more beautiful to see than a child smile and play again. Have the child's mood goes from "Broken" to "Normal" or above. Refer to the [Note: Better days] achievement guide and do everything in it in reverse to get the child to broken status rapidly.

It’s crucial that kids learn to survive on their own. What if we don’t come back one night?

Have the child learn every teachable task in game. This is more time cosuming then its difficulty. Recommend to attempt this in a custom game with war duration set to something you are comfortable with or you might risk the war ending before you can teach everything. For anyone that played through the game a few times, 40 days might be enough. I personally ran out of standard things to teach at around day 25. Winter is not required.

Finally found a way back to the old apartment. Or whatever was left of it. Build the makeshift bridge from your workshop.

The hoodie meant the world to Amelia, but war turns everything upside down. This piece of cloth was crucial to this woman's health. Maybe life. Once you reached the hospital, there's a patient on the third floor that you could talk to. After asking about the hoodie, do not loot/take the hoodie.

The stakes were high, but I could not stay idle. I killed those soldiers but I saved the doctor. In the abandoned toy store, get rid of the soldiers and save the doctor. Make sure to bring weapons.

Faced my demons and learned the truth of that horrible night.

Unmissable Story related achievement, won't spoil it here. Awarded when you reach the church.

Learn and broadcast all the news There are 16 news to broadcast and 10 radio messages to be receive. Here are my general order of getting it.

*Just know that a lot of user reporting this achievement is a bit buggy and might not reward it when you reach 26. I simply quit and reload day 20, and rebroadcast them fixes it for me.

Lie to Malik on two or more occasions. Have Esma lie to Malik about what she knew

Tell Malik the truth at least twice Have Esma tell the truth to Malik

Finish the game as Malik's successor. Keep telling the truth until Malik dies. After that, visit the music station and retrieve the radio part from there. Repair radio station with it and broadcast with it.

Finish the game apologising to Malik Keep lieing until Malik leaves. After that, trader at your door will offer radio parts in exchange of his photo album. Retrieve the photo album for him and wait for him next visit. Repair radio station with parts and broadcast with it.

Let Adem return to the shelter. Adma will return after all three major story broadcast has been made

Make one hundred cigarettes

roll ups will do, no need to go for high quality

We faced the harsh winter together and made it to the Museum, our new shelter. Milena the museum worker will visit the second time on day 5, bringing meds and food for Ruben. Use the meds on Ruben until he heals, then the shelter migration option will be available at night.

The winter was severe. I knew Tito used to help my father frequently. I decided to help him too. Tito will ask for 6 fuel the first time, and 1 food(meat, not can) the second time. This can be done within a single visit. He'll then give a saw blade, med(pills), and some components as reward.

We finally managed to repair the truck. Now we can move our heritage to safety. Story achievement

They had only their adoptive father - Adam. Now they have a glimmer of hope to survive this war.

Complete the event chain that starts from speaking to the child in "Supermarket".

1. Bring 10 fuel to "Orphanage"
2. Talk to girl in "Orphanage", steal books for her.
3. Talk to Adam to obtain information about smugglers in "Railway Station".

4) Steal item for the man at "Railway Station".

Milena's wish came true. We saved it all - our precious heritage. Secure every art item. You can turn them into fuel afterwards.
List of items:

• Tito's Vinyl records. Unlock after giving him 6 fuel at "Neighbor's house".
  
• Ruben's backpack. Day 4 at original shelter. size 3.
  
• Anja's collection. Day 4 at original shelter, remove 2 debris to reach it. size 4.

• Nenedian vase. Basement of "Samuel Institution".
  
• Everything in the "Museum". 1 pile on top floor next to the damaged pillar, 2 piles on basement 1, 1 pile at the front door that are brought from Anja's house .

We acquired the truck parts without giving up Anja's necklace. Talk to the mechanic when he is is in the garage, listen to him talk about his car, then steal the car's battery when he eventually walks away. Talk to him again and he'll be distracted and the engine parts are up for grabs.

We gave the case files to Taras the fence. Our heritage should be safe now. You might not want to complete this event yet, see Epilogue: All the way
Bring the case files the trader asked for to "Construction SIte"

We gave the painting to Colonel Markov. Our heritage should be safe now. You might not want to complete this event yet, see Epilogue: All the way
Bring the painting the colonel asked for to "Army Base"

Zoran's destiny is fulfilled. We didn't burn any of our legacy. Secure every art item and hand the files to Taras.

Our place was damaged in the bombing. We decided to reinforce all the pillars to buy us as much time as we can. After moving to the Museum, it'll be bombed occasionally, keep repairing the pillars whenever there's an option.

Some people just want to watch the world burn. Turn 30 art items to fuel. Does not need to be a "significant" item.

Complete the game with all the alternate endings.

There are technically 7 endings according to different combination of the Colonel(C), Fence(F), and the Innocent Children(I) event. However some of them only have slightly different flavour text with the same "ending", making 3 of the 7 endings pointless for this achievement.
The combinations:
C
F
I + C
I + F

For those who have no intention to go through the story 4 times, having a day 19 backup save file that hasn't complete any of the above events would be very helpful. You can find the save files storiessavedgames, storiessavedgames.alt under \Steam\userdata\<your id>\282070\remote. To reload a save, start a new game and replace its save file with the backup.
