How to unlock the Battle Forged achievement in Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor - Game of the Year Edition - Definitive Guide

This is in the Bright Lord missions. As you complete the main missions, you will unlock secondary missions (in white on the map) to increase the ring's power. There are four of these, once you complete the last one, you will receive this achievement. Each mission is unlocked by reforging the nearby tower, so you'll have to reforge all the towers before you can get this achievement.

The four missions are:
Don’t Shoot the Messenger (East Garrison Stronghold)
Strength in Numbers (Udun Crossing)
Shoddy Construction (Udun Crossing)
Silver Persuasion (Barrows of Udun)

You MUST complete all secondary missions before you do the final main mission. You will need to start over once the Bright Lord is completed. Also, you'll probably want the extra power during the final mission.

A needed improvement to this solution is a list of each of the One Ring Missions and a link to a video for each of them to help people out.
Also, you can only start the missions once all of the towers have been forged.

In addition to the previous note about completing this before you end the game, note that the One Ring missions only become available after you have unlocked all the forge towers.

To add to the comments above. Here is a list of the 4 missions and locations. I found this list on another site and it is helpful for me so I figured it could be for others as well.

Don’t Shoot the Messenger is located in East Garrison Stronghold.
Strength in Numbers is located in Udun Crossing.
Shoddy Construction is located in Udun Crossing.
Silver Persuasion is located in Barrows of Udun.

There are four side missions you must complete in The Bright Lord campaign before completing the final mission (The True Lord of the Rings) to unlock this achievement. These are white mission markers on the map and are locked until you’ve built all the Forge Towers.

Silver Persuasion
Utilize the Shadow Brand and The One Ring abilities for the first part.

Strength in Numbers
Simply keep the enemy’s attention to prevent them from attacking the tower (easily done by continuously jumping over them). Summon allies to help if necessary.

Shoddy Construction
Nothing to this one. Just keep branding enemies while waiting for your allies to destroy the cranes.

Don’t Shoot the Messenger
Shadow Brand and Stealth Brand, then activate One Ring when it’s full to finish them up. You should have plenty of time for the second part.
