Capture the Flag
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Capture the flag, or CTF, is a set of multiplayer rules in Halo 1 and Halo 2 where teams compete to bring a flag, often taken from the opposing teams base, to a pre-determined area, often your team's flag, or base. Many variants of this game type exist, including one flag CTF, where teams vie for control of one flag, usually centered equidistantly from both teams bases, and attempt to move the flag to one base or the other. More variants can be created using either game's gametype creation system.

Certain game types from Halo, like Invasion that used Capture the Flag rules now have their own rules sub-set in Halo 2 via the Assault rules.
Trivia
- When playing on maps with overhangs or ledges that are just out of reach when jumping, it is possible to toss the flag on the ledge and leave it there. This is effective especially if the other team has your flag and they want to get theirs' back to score.
