1	* Hastati Squad taking down Zuma Squad using a wildcard strategy.
2	* The Elite stomping into view and hacking a statue in half at the end of Part 3 was rather awesome.
3	* Episode 4 has quite a few:
4	** John-117's [[EstablishingCharacterMoment introduction]]. He manages to sneak up and kill the Elite Zealot that had been hunting and killing the cadets with a simple combat knife.
5	*** Given that the Zealot was clearly enjoying hunting the cadets, there's never been such satisfaction in watching John kill an Elite.
6	** A short time after John-117's arrival, he dispatches three Jackal snipers in under two seconds. With what gun, you may ask? The [[HandCannon M6D Magnum]] from ''VideoGame/HaloCombatEvolved'', a weapon remembered by most Halo fans as being almost comically overpowered and deadly accurate. He does this ''one handed, while sprinting''.
7	** While under heavy fire and having just burned through not only her own but also the wounded Sully's rifle magazines, Silva finds a fallen Covenant Type-51 Carbine. After more than a hundred UNSC rounds did absolutely nothing to the attackers, a single shot from the Covenant Carbine takes one down. Also stresses how [[GameplayAndStorySegregation in-canon]], Covenant weapons are simply better than their UNSC counterparts.
8	*** It probably helps that the cadets were armed with assault rifles, which in game terms are terrible for shooting at that distance, while the carbine she picked up is far more deadly and accurate for long range fire.
9	*** The fact that Silva is able to effectively wield the Covenant Carbine, despite having no prior experience with Covenant weaponry, goes to show just how skilled she is with firearms in general.
10	*** If nothing else, it's very satisfying to see Silva give the Covenant a taste of their own medicine.
11	%%** Vickers deserves mention for his actions during the attack on Corbullo. When Hastati's unable to access the live rounds due to April's code not working, Vickers
12	* Episode 5:
13	** John-117 versus the Hunters. The first one he kills offscreen, but to fight the second one, he's down to a single fragmentation grenade. What does he do? After getting [[OffhandBackhand knocked around like a ragdoll]], he [[ColossusClimb clambers atop the thing]] and shoves the grenade inside it.
14	** Also, Lasky does a near suicidal charge in order to distract the Hunter to give the Chief an opening, an act that earns him the Chief's respect.
15	** On the Warthog, we get to see Silva kill two Jackals; which is an impressive shot given that she was using the less-than-accurate Assault Rifle on a moving vehicle, and managed to hit vital areas instead of the wide energy shields they were carrying. Orenski also kills at least one Jackal.
16	** The entire scene of the UNSC Infinity going into Slipspace, followed by a huge UNSC escort fleet comprising of frigates, destroyers and cruisers. It simply looks and feels awesome.
