Once the match starts, have one person from each team move over to the other teams side and they must be Tactical with Vengence Launcher. Everyone on the other team, other than the 1 Tactical must be a Raptor/Assault.
1. The Tactical sticks the group with their Vengence Launcher Shots.
2. Count to 3 and all Raptors/Assaults jump.
3. Tactical hits RB and everyone drops out of the sky dead.
4. Repeat until First Tactical gets it and trade off.
Note: "But what if I don't have the Vengence Launcher Unlocked?!" - Not to worry! You can steal your killers load out, so even low levels can get this.
You'll also get a crazy amount of XP towards Level 40.

The one going for the achievement will choose devastator with the heavy bolter and capture point B. The person dying will choose point A or C, whichever is closer to their spawn. The dying person will pick raptor/ assault and spawn at the flag every time they die. When the game has started the person going for the achievement will run to the enemy flag after capturing the middle point and use RB to deploy the gun making it shoot faster. The dying person will jump up in the air and be shot down, when dead they will choose to spawn back at their flag. The person killing can collect the ammo from the dead marines if you need it. Also if you use your pistol to get a kill after every 3 kills with the heavy bolter it will restart your kill streak so you can work on that challenge at the same time. It takes about 15 minutes each to get the achievement. Once one person has the achievement end the game and reload it back up for the other person.
This is for the kill reward "Death from Below".
To boost it, you'll need for someone to be an Assault/Raptor class and then have them jump up in the air using/holding . When they're in the air, just shoot them before the fall. You'll know they got it because the Assault/Raptor player will explode (and the person who did the killing will get the popup on their screen).
A good way is to have the person shooting using the Vengeance Launcher and shoot one person with 3 mines. Then the other people jump up and the shooter explode the mines, getting multiple "Death from Below" kills at once. Thanks noirproxy!
When Assault Marines and Raptors press and hold the button, you will see them rocket into the air. At this point, just put as many bullets into them as you can while they're flying. Bolters, Storm Bolters/Twin Bolters, and the Heavy Bolter are your best options here for their rate of fire.
You'll know when you kill the Assault Marine/Raptor in the air, because you will be rewarded with the "Death from below" award.
