Alright, i took another run at the fistful of heroes achievement. I started the thoughts and prayers ambition (I think that's what its called, the one in which you have to max out culture and knowledge). The first quest I did was the getting started one with the monarch that awards 10 renown. After that I created a physician. I did two quests (one with the doctor, the other with the monarch -- forget which ones) each worth 50 renown. At this point I had 2 heroes with 110 renown, and didn't get the achievement. I built a couple of non hero buildings (I believe the watchers tower and kingball court) and did a third quest (love doctor or something like that) with the physician for 60 renown. When I finished that I still only had 2 heroes and 170 renown, still no achievement. At this point I'm going to have to bail on the achievement and build more heroes so I can get the ambition at platinum. So, some questions ....
Do I need to do this with specific heroes? Do specific quests? Does it need to be in a specific ambition? Did building the non-hero buildings mess it up? Do I just need more renown? Has anyone out there actually completed this achievement?
For now I'm just going to finish out this ambition and try for the achievement on the next ambition. In the meantime any thoughts or ideas on this would be GREATLY appreciated.
