Special Delivery is a Halo 4 achievement added with the Crimson Map Pack. It was unlocked when the player killed an enemy player with a melee attack while landing from a man cannon.[1]

Following the shutdown of Xbox 360 Halo online services on January 13, 2022, this achievement is no longer attainable.[2][3]

Trivia[edit]

Upon release, the achievement was glitched and would unlock seemingly at random. Numerous players reported being awarded the achievement for Kills from the Grave, melees and Flag Carrier Kills.

If unlocked as intended, the achievement could only be unlocked on Wreckage, as it is the only Crimson map with man cannons.
