Alternative Achievements

[MortenJessen]

Hi all.
I just had a look at the stats file for the achievements log since I guess the achievement
Observe Diplomatic NicetiesUse diplomatic threats to good effect by making gains from five separate negotiations

is broken. I personally have been using threats more than 100 times over all, and been succesfull more than half of the times, but still no achievement.
Then I had the idea of trying to find the in-game trackholder of these achievements to see how many it had recorded me for using. Not surprisingly does this part of the file system not work (all stats was locked and on zero, but since I have 20 achievements I guess it just do not work anymore, or most likely, newer did.
Now, the idea behind this thread is to see if anyone can tell me if my new theory based on findings in the file system (see attached picture) is correct: Is it possible that there was 14 more achievements meant to be part of the game ????
Y.S.

Nope, I got it.
Cheated a bit but couldn't be bothered:
start RTI act III (I think). You get a mission to get an alliance with the Iroquois. If you propose this alliance, it will always be accepted (because otherwise the game couldn't continue).
So, propose the alliance and press "Threaten". End the round (I think this is needed for the game to remember you threatened). Start the act again, do the same.

As for your theory: sure looks like there were supposed to be more from the screenshot...
