Weird Acheivements
It has recently been confirmed that both of these acheivements are possible to get...but require extremely unique circumstances

Dat Doe, Though - You were killed by peacefull wildlife
Explanation: Enter the konami code on your keyboard to spawn a deer that will blow up your party. See the steam guide below for even more details https://steamoss.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2389879640

They Fit Just Right - Those prisoner clothes really look good on you
Explanation: Wear the prisoners clothes from the dungeon at the begining of the game to the very end. Recomended you stay on the easiest difficulty to just grind this out one day. (Still bugged as of October 2020, but you can find a community patch in the forums that can make it achievable)

Final Comments
Now that the game has undergone several patches it appears that all of the achievements are now possible to get. As soon as i get enough time, i'll go through and get a 100% to give you guys an idea of the time required to platinum the game. Have fun finding that doe.

Frankly the thought of grinding out level 40 in the game kind of makes me gag a little, so it might be a while before i can post an approximate platinum time.

Who can help with Better Together and Skirmisher??

The Achievement "Commander of Farlorn's Hope" should be easier to get in the Legacy version because of some changes done with Reforced.

The biggest change for this Achievement is the target you have to destroy for the Achievement which in Reforced is the enemy Cal but(!!!) in Legacy is basically the enemy Hero(!!!!!!!!!!!) who can very quickly be killed just by taking all units you have at that point rush inand deffeat him to get the achievement.

@Kenz: Pro Tip: You are allowed to upgrade the outposts. You are allowed to collect ressources. You are allowed to build buildings. Autorepair outposts under attack and attack somewhere else.
Respec your main character into all strength and skilltree Brutality Raze.
Use the pots you got!

Achievement "They Fit Just Right" got fixed.

For Dwarven Artistry: turn off the option which hides the helmet of your characters.
I had to do it, after Isgrimm's armor was fully upgraded.

@assurbanipal Going off my memory of people who did it in the past, it usually involves putting the game on one of the harder modes, entering an RTS map and then just grinding out defensive battles for hours on end until the map literally runs out of resources...

The description of the "Dat Doe, Though" achievement is incorrect. See the detailed guide here: "Dat Doe, Though" Achievement Guide

To keep Isgrimm in the party you just need to be good to him... because i was nice and he stayed the whole time.
