Kill 5 units with a single tactical operation

How to unlock the No one could survive that! achievement in Age of Wonders: Planetfall - Definitive Guide

To unlock this achievement, you must kill 5 units with a single use of a tactical operation during a manual tactical combat.

Note this can be done on ANY unit; friendly, temporary, enemy etc.
There are many tactical operations that cause damage in 1 or 2 hex radius.
You can use multiple tactical operations, as long as the last one you use gets the 5 kills.

The easiest method I can think of to unlock was creating 5 weak temporary units and using a tactical operation on them a couple times to destroy them.

I unlocked while playing as the Assembly using 5 Reverse Engineers in tactical combat building Constructs and using the "Shredder Bomb" tactical operation on them:
Turn 1: Reverse Engineers created 5 constructs within 1 hex of each other.
Turn 2: Used a tactical operation on the Constructs (It did 12 damage, they have 20hp).
Turn 3: Used the same tactical operation on the Constructs, they died simultaneously and achievement popped.
This took me 5 minutes after loading up a save I had during the Assembly campaign before my final battle with the AI.

This method can be done with any similar unit or tactical operation setup.
Keep in mind you can save scum in this game to reload at any point.

Age of Wonders: Planetfall (PC) - Achievement - No one could survive that!

Kill 5 units with a single tactical operation

First of all, it should be noted that this achievement can be done by killing your own units in tactical combat.
There are many later game tactical operations with AoE damage - I use the 'Shredder Bomb' in this video used by The Assembly. You may find the opportunity to come across this naturally, but if you haven't and want the achievement, the Reverse Engineer produced by The Assembly should be able to help you. They can use the 'Create Construct' ability to make a weak unit next to them, so all you need is 5 Reverse Engineers to create 5 constructs, make sure they are within close range of each other and then drop 2 Shredder Bombs on them, making sure at least the same 5 Constructs are within the blast radius both times, thus simultaneously killing them and unlocking the achievement.
It should be noted that tactical operations that do not do instant damage do not trigger this achievement (eg. PyrX Bomb in the Promethean tech tree which causes damage by choking the turn after it is used)

This one is for killing 5 or more unit(s) with 1 tactical operation. To access tactical operations press [triangle] button during manual combat mode then press the [up] button to access your researched tactical operations. Make sure to research something good first, like tactical nuclear strike or firestom projectile (weaker) or any other aof attack will do.

In hot-sit mode, create a party for two players, for one, create an army of the 5 IDENTICAL weakest units and attack this army with another player. You need to be sure to have a tactical operation with area damage and enough operation points for several runs. During the battle, collect 5 units so that they are all hit by the operation at once and hit them with this operation every turn. Don't cause any more damage to them! After 3-4 times, all 5 units should die AT THE SAME TIME.
