Rolling Thunder is an achievement in Halo 5: Guardians, awarded for having your entire fireteam drive four different vehicles at once on the level Genesis on Heroic difficulty.[1]
Tips
The achievement requires four different vehicles but not four distinct vehicles; that is, the achievement can be completed with multiple of the same vehicle class rather than demanding a different type for each driver. One also does not have complete the level or even the entire "tank run" in four vehicles; merely being in four will unlock it.
It can be earned as early as right after the first door Exuberant Witness opens for the Scorpion. In between there and the start of the tank run is one M820 Scorpion, two vacant Type-54 Ghosts, one vacant Ghost Ultra, and one vacant Wraith Ultra. There are also piloted Wraiths, Ghosts, Phaetons, and one Banshee which can be hijacked with the aid of a plasma pistol or the Spitfire variant, but this will be much harder to do.
