Incredibly simple achievement.
Approach an enemy from behind, and melee kill him. (Hold RB is the default button).
If the melee hit kills him from behind, it will count as an assasination and the achievement will pop.
Best tactic is when someone runs in front of you on matchmaking, use sprint to catch him then hit him. |

| At the very beginning of the "Nightfall" mission you will come upon a hapless Elite with his back to you, an easy target for assassination. |

You can do this with a second controller.
- In the "Main Menu" select "Custom Game"
- Press Y (Network Mode) and select "My Xbox 360 Console"
- Select Game Type "Assault"
- Select a small map like "Powerhouse"
- Start the game
- Find the other player and stand behind him (you don't have to sneak up)
- Press and HOLD the melee button (RB) until the achievements shows up |

For a long time I didn't realize that you must hold RB, if you tap it it will "melee from behind" but if you hold it for just under a second it will assasinate.
Any grunt in campaign or Firefight, a friend in a custom game, matchmaking...
Nightfall has a helpless elite, though if you do the "they came to hear me beg" achievement you will pop both at once.
I can get 3 to 9 assassinations in some matchmaking games. |

| I got this on the 2nd mission of the campaign. When you see weak enemies (the small ones), get behind him and assassinate him by holding RB. |
