==Rules==
==Rules==
There are two teams based on opposite ends of the map. There are also two flags, each one in the corresponding bases (or there can be only one if the game is "attack and defend, or Neutral Flag, like in ''[[Halo 2]]''). The object of the games is to capture the opponents' flag three times to win the game while protecting your own flag from enemies at the same time. Unlike slayer games, total number of kills does not count toward the score. For example, a team who captures the flag three times, but gets no kills, still wins the game. To score, the player with the flag must run directly over where their own flag spawns.

===Tank Flag===
===Tank Flag===
Tank Flag is another ''Halo 3'' Multi Flag CTF variant. The flag carriers can take more damage, but have a slower recharge rate on their shields and slower movement speed, meaning protecting the flag carrier becomes much more of a job than before.<ref name="H3Strategy"/>

===MLG Multi Flag===
===MLG Multi Flag===
A Multi Flag CTF game under [[MLG (playlist)|MLG]]'s more hardcore rules, where these vary themselves on certain maps, such as on MLG [[Narrows]] and MLG [[The Pit]], there are three flag captures. On the Narrows, your own flag must be returned, but on MLG [[Onslaught]] (a [[Foundry (level)|Foundry]] variant), there needs to be five flag scores to win, but they all similarly have a fairly quick flag return time.
