Get a triple kill while on the attacking team in Stronghold

How to unlock the Legion of Boom achievement in Red Dead Redemption - Definitive Guide

The quickest way to attain this achievement is to use the dynamite with which every attacking team member spawns. This can be done on any map.

Start a private Stronghold match with no fewer than 4 people. Set a meeting point, have the defenders group together... and BOOM! goes the dynamite. Repeat for each attacking team member.

Note:
If you have 4 or 5 people then have three posse-up. With 6 people everybody will get it in the same game. If, for whatever reason, you start to run short on time, have the attacking team capture a position.

Anybody know what determines who gets to attack first? Host, maybe? It's worth knowing for those of us setting up a 4-person boosting session, so we don't have to chance waiting on the 3-person team to finish being attackers first.

I'm fairly sure that it's random. If that is the case then just capture all positions. It's been a while since I've played, can you change teams by changing posse mid game?

So can this achievement be attained offline? TA lists it as "offline/online".

How we did with 4 players: create a posse with 4 players, start the Stronghold lobby. Then the player who want the achievement leave the posse. The game start with 3 players defending. Wait for the next turn and the lone player will attack and be able to kill the 3 otehrs.

play Stronghold at Fort Mercer. when on the attacking team, once you've captured the cannons at the 3rd checkpoint, instead of rushing towards the fort to capture the next object, stay and fire the cannons towards the objective flags to get a triple kill (this is a triple kill, not a triple kill streak achievement). you can usually see the name markers and can distinguish between your team and the enemy. be careful to not take out your own team, remembering, blue is your team, red is the enemy (your team can vote to kick you out of the session). if you can't snag one of the two cannons right away, you can pull out your carano rifle and snipe while waiting next to or behind one of the cannon gunners. usually the enemy gets the smarts to snipe out the cannon gunner and you should be able to jump on the cannon without waiting to long.

When I got the achievement it was on the Fort Mercer stronghold on the attacking team. The third "checkpoint" has cannons, so once your team has taken it over let the cannons fly into the fort. If there are a fair amount of people on the defending team it should be no problem to kill three of them at the same time.

You'll need to act fast to attain a triple kill. The fastest method of getting one is using Dynamite. You'll need to have at least 4 people for this achievement. You can set up a Private Stronghold match and still earn the achievement. Be sure the match is 3 vs. 1 by having 3 people be in one posse and the person going for the achievement not be in a posse. Have all players stand in one spot, throw the dynamite, and the triple kill will be yours.

This is a harder trophy, since you are playing against live players and don't know where they will end up. If you happen to come across a group of players in one place and have an Explosive Rifle, shoot them and this trophy will pop. This trophy is easier if you are boosting and have a stick of Dynamite in your possession.

Mostly likely if you are playing in a Public Match, your enemies will be guarding the Dock, so if you get there without getting caught and throw a Dynamite which kills them (before you die), you should obtain this trophy. Try not to run when going to blow up the opposing team, because your icon will pop up on the mini-map and the other team will be able to see it.

The easiest locations to get this trophy are Thieves' Landing by the second safe (using Dynamite) and Fort Mercer (using the Cannons).

"The Explosive Rifle can be found in safes throughout the Stronghold maps in competitive modes". Credit to oOoOo for this tip.
