'''How To''': Pretty self-explanatory. Just join a game and play as a Huscarl. Remember that it recquires a FULL round, so if you joined mid-game you'll have to wait for the next round to start. The round must also last at least 5 minutes.  
'''How To''': Avail yourself of the Huscarl class, and chase Skirmishers and Archers around to stop them from winning or losing for five minutes.

'''How To''': First, fill your special bar by hitting enemies. When the bar is full, use your shield dash special and try to fall to your death. Some good maps to do this achievement on are Forgotten and pvk_float, where there are lots of cliffs for you to fall to your death.
'''How to:''' Use charged throws against enemies to accrue damage, when they're About to be Pushing up the Daises to get kills (Bleeding Profusely if they're a weaker class) and uncharged throws against Bleeding enemies when your teammates are fighting them to secure assists. The grace period for assist damage is about three seconds.
