  The fastest way to join is during the 2nd main quest The Old Neighborhood, when you talk to Commander John Tuala,the UC vanguard faction mission“Supra Et Ultra” will show up, after finished it and the follow one “Grunt Work”,Crimson Fleet faction mission "Deep Cover" will automatically start, finished it and the follow one "Rook Meets King" you will get the achievement.
  
  But if you chose NOT to do “Supra Et Ultra”, you also have the chance to join the Crimson Fleet, after the main quest "No Sudden Moves",you will receive a 500 UC bounty and get caught when entering Alpha Centauri (un less you directly landing on planet),Crimson Fleet faction mission "Deep Cover" will automatically start afterr you surrender. No matter you chose join or not, the faction mission seem to be sustainable.

  Burke, you should be able to do all the faction quests over again in NG+. Even if you skip the main quest. For this one either join UC Vanguard and they'll offer to go undercover, or get arrested / tossed in jail and they should offer you this questline but they'll be dicks about it.

  It's helpful to know that in NG+, players can still engage with faction quests, even if they choose to skip the main quest. Your suggestion to either join the UC Vanguard or, if arrested, engage with the Crimson Fleet questline provides spacebar clicker players with different options to explore the storyline.

  If people are having glitches with crimson missions, consider this….. I got caught stealing a stupid item and had a 1 credit bounty. Had to get arrested to try n clear it. Turns out they want my to go undercover with the crimson. Now, I’ve only completed the mission that gets me Sarah. From my readings, it’s my way into crimson. Not sure yet, though if that allows me to join n do the crimson related achievements/ story line. I’m still clarifying but good for thought in case it is a workaround for the bug that I have heard about.

  Warning: there is a pretty nasty game breaking bug with this quest line that I haven't seen much discussion about outside of a few reddit comments. MAKE SURE you hard save before returning to Adler after getting the money from Karl. 2-3 versions of this bug can happen, 1) the Rook Meets King quest won't trigger at all 2) It will Trigger and the Astraea ship orbiting Europa won't let you dock or hail or 3) The ship will not appear at all
  
  If this happens, you can not join the crimson fleet or access any of this part of the game. There is currently no work around or fix for this (don't waste your time flying around the ship for 30 minutes like me thinking you're doing something wrong), so you have to reload a save (in my case, I had to go back 6-7 hours)

  #1 has happened to me. I'm now 75 hours in and close to NG+ so I'll get it the second time around I guess.
