¶ Achievements
Achievements are the main goals of the game. They are described on achievement cards:
- Name
- Description
- Type
- Complexity
¶ Achievement Types
Each card is divided into two blocks that contain the achievements of two types:
Instant achievement. The player may achieve this as many times during the game, as many lightning symbols there are. During your turn in development phase, complete the described task and put your cube from the bank on this block. You can get a few achievements of this type during this round, but only one per your turn
Recurrent achievement. The player may achieve this each round, if the requirements are met at the end of achievement phase. Earned achievements remain yours until the end of the game even if you don't meet their requirements anymore
¶ Achievement Classes
An achievement card has either one of four colors that define the class of the achievements:
Economic
Warfare
Cultural
ScientificThere are a total of 48 achievement cards, with 12 of each color
¶ Complexity of Instant Achievements
Each instant achievement has its own complexity, indicated by the number of stars 
. As soon as a player gains achievements with a total complexity ≥ 4, the game immediately ends, and the player achieves an instant victory.
¶ Public and Secret Achievement Cards
There are eight public achievements (4 cards) available for each player at the beginning of the game. Also each player has one card with two secret achievements on hand.
As soon as the player gets one of achievements on one's secret card, one reveals this card and marks it with one's cube from the bank. From this moment, both of achievements from this card become public, thus any other player may also earn them.
Nevertheless, you cannot put your cubes on different achievement cards of the same color. For example, if the player earns one's secret cultural achievement and places one's cube on this blue card, one cannot earn achievements from another blue card.
Moreover, the secret achievements are not mandatory, they are the alternative for two public achievements of the same class. Also, you are not obliged to earn any achievement, even though you've met its requirement.
