100% achievement guide
By Asura Deva
This is a short guide to 100% Steam achievements on AC Syndicate
Note if you already have completed the game 100% on Ubisoft prior, then loading that save should give you all achievements on steam too.

I apologize in advance for the giant images as those are taken from Steam directly then i was unable to reduce the size.
