Regarding the Fatherland achievement for finishing the game:

Since difficulty can be changed mid-game, the achievement requires to have played at least the last 3 levels in normal or hard. It will not trigger if you just go and finish the game from the last map. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers!
