I got a triple with a Wraith barrage on Longbow in Dominion. Was hovering around C objective and just kept bombarding B with the Wraith, and what do you? I get a triple. I was quite pleased.
Another good story, although not mine it happened to my brother. We were on Exile back when there was a Scorpion, and the tank was shooting at us so he’s like “I got this.” He runs at it jumps over the first shell and then throws up his hard-light shield and bounces the second projectile back at the Scorpion, destroying it! I was like, O_o that be crazy!?!?
One of my favorite things to do is have a Spartan teammate or two rip of mounted guns and then ride on top of a Goose or Hog. It confuses the hell out of the enemy and looks funny as hell.

I also bombard B on Longbow as well! I never got a multikill although I did get a killing spree.
My friend and I were playing BTIS on Longbow and I got a rocket launcher in my ordnance. I asked my friend if he wanted to try something crazy, and he said yes, so I called down my rockets brought him a mongoose, and told him to drive. We were able to kill 2 people and one of them dropped a Splazer, so I picked it up and we continued on to blow up two Warthogs. That game kind of had an aura of classic Halo vehicular combat. Man I miss vehicles back in the day.
Disclaimer: All of the following were pure luck and coincidence; no skill involved whatsoever. =)
killed a guy who took the man cannon on Ragnarok mid-air by firing a salvo of rockets from the Mantis towards his base from in front of my base
killed a guy by shooting and thus detonating the frag grenade he threw a split-second earlier
binary slayer on Ragnarok; was about to shoot an opponent, accidentally unscoped (VERY old controller) and snapshot’d a sword-wielder who was about to kill me (luckiest snapshot ever!!!)
threw a plasma grenade at an enemy on top of my base on Ragnarok who just took my flag; missed him, hit the man cannon instead, grenade flew away, stuck another guy
wiped out the whole enemy team and got an overkill with an autosentry in lightning flag on Haven (sentry gone wild)
It’s also incredibly fun to Jihad with Warthogs or Gooses.
Step 1: Acquire Sticky Detonator
Step 2: Apply sticky grenade to front of vehicle
Step 3: Have a buddy drive while you grab shotgun
Step 4: Convince buddy to drive directly into a crowd of enemy players or vehicles
Step 5: Pull trigger
Step 6: Profit
I have one crazy experience that comes out of Settler. Me and a friend both acquired personal ordanace.
The insanity that ensued, well from the point of view of an red guy was well. Blue team player charging at them with speed boost and a sticky grenade jutting out of the back of his head. Suffice to say the red died a horrific suicide bombing death. I went down from combined fire from the enemy, but i was too busy laughing to care.
Mongoose shenanigans with a stranger. Plasma grenades thrown backward over my shoulder, for two sticks, and a third enemy killed with a DMR for the triple. Then we stole their Mantis. =)

Very cool! Any successful mongoose run is difficult to pull off these days.
One time I got a triple kill with a Laser against 3 guys who were on foot. If you don’t believe me, check my file share.
I was inches away from the fourth.
I regularly go sticky detonator hunting with my brother in infinity slayer.
Step 1: Acquire sticky detonator.
Step 2: Stick teammate with said sticky detonator.
Step 3: crouch and wait while teammate runs around looking for enemies.
Step 4: Teammate finds and runs into crowded room of enemies.
Step 5: Detonate and laugh hysterically.
Step 6: (Optional) Get called a hacker in the post game lobby.
I once deflected a rocket with a regen field entirely accidentally. Of course, I bit the second one instead (stupid clip size), but another team (in multi) finished him. That was coolio.

Knowing The blue team spawned with a gauss hog something had to be done to even the playing field. The two then set out with a rail gun from their ordnance and the deadly Mongoose of terror. They found themselves driving straight into an enemy a Scorpion and were sure they were doomed. the Spartan then charged up his rail gun blessed by the gods and shot straight at the Scorpion. The Scorpion then blew up and the man controlling the Spartan then dropped his controller and laughed for the rest of the game.

Before questioning if rushing a Mantis with a hammer is a good idea he then charged the mantis with his Hammer. He then hits the enemy mantis a total of four times wondering if he was even doing damage. The mantis then falls over and before the enemy could even figure out what was going on. The enemy then watched as the bravest Spartan ever taunted him with victory crouches for the win.

Don’t worry about it. I think your post is absolutely perfect for this thread, combining imagination and gameplay experience for some awesome story-telling!
BTW, I never would’ve thought to call a mongoose with a railgun a Mini-Gauss Hog!
Well this isn’t really a fancy kill but one time on Exile, everyone on my team was in that middle building/cave and the enemy team had the Scorpion. The Scorpion was about to shoot through one of the door ways and get at least a killtacular, but I deflected it with the Hardlight shield and saved everyone.
