    Using charge and then switching weapons to stomp is only way I know of.

    Mambo is correct. It is a bug with the way HL detects kills I think.

    When you start charging you begin doing damage, if you then switch to another weapon you are still charging (and doing damage) but no longer have charge selected. So when you kill someone the current weapon you have selected is detected and the game assumes that is the weapon causing the damage.

    There isn't a 'stomp kill' death icon for obvious reasons, but essentially you're killing with charge. This also works for devour and gore, but devour looks a hell of a lot more hilarious.

    I've been kickbanned from servers for 'killing' with Stomp. There is a lesson to be learned from this, boys and girls. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    In theory though, could one spit at someone else, and then switch to bile bomb and get a bile bomb kill? I must test!

    Should work in theory, but from experience with fade acidrocket metabolyze attemps I will say that it doesn't seem to work for projectiles. I know it works for leap and charge, so you can get xenocide kills without hives as a skulk. This is because leap and charge keep causing damage even after you change weapons.

    small skull and crossbones. The same kind you'd see from a worldspawn kill.
