A Fe-Toa in Po who is too far away from the conflict. He's fighting another of Makuta's minions. Anyone who has a risky, suicidal plan to make a dent in the Rahkshi forces attacking Onu or Ta, however, I'm willing to lend a hand, as long as I can expect explosions.

Silvan Haven Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I just sent some Matoran running around recruiting people who would want to help defend the koro.

Makuta Almanax Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) Really? I was thinking Onu-Koro will probably end up being caved in by the end of it. Ta-Koro is most definitely the safest unless Nuju Metru decides to have someone hit the kill switch. I'm also thinking Po-Koro should come out relatively unscathed, considering there's not too much to be destroyed. I wish I could say Le Koro but frankly the Toa element combinations seem to be leading to the whole of Le-Wahi burning down.

Padishah Mehmet II Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 To cave in Onu-Koro, they would need to break in first. The tunnels are excellent strategic bottlenecks. A hundred men could easily hold off ten thousand, or in this case, a Toa could actually hold off a Rahkshi because all of them couldn't force through at once.-Dovydas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thanks for pointing out the structure of Onu-Koro. I think I've been a tad confused on that issue. But even in the case of the tunnels, there's no reason a Guurahk couldn't widen the tunnels and give them more access, assuming the Rahkshi make the first move. I'd imagine all the koros would come out intact if everyone left the rahkshi alone. Like anyone would resist the chance to attack them. Who doesn't turn away from a free Death Wish!?

Onu-Koro is underground, and the tunnels may have passed through there. Unless, nearby there. Or they could attack from the top, if they are strong enough. I don't know.

Geardirector Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 As far as I know, Onu-Koro has at least two Onu-Toa who are prepared to defend the city, one of 'em's mine, the other's Almanax's.

Krayzikk Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Onu-Koro is, at first glance, the village worst off. But when you actually think about it, it's one of the best off. First of all, it is a naturally defensible location. The village literally specializes in materials for construction. They have two Onu-Toa handy, which means ready-to-use fortifications. Their architecture creates natural bottlenecks, as well. If you've ever read about the Battle of Thermopylae, you'd have an idea of how those work. With the invading force having to pass through, they can only get a few through. Naturally this is somewhat hampered by the presence of Density Control Rahkshi, but the point still stands. And even discounting all of this, you're forgetting one thing. The Ussalry. For whom every PC member is a certified bad- Well, you know how I was going to end that. On this eve, the thirtieth anniversary of that first colony, many are left to wonder; is the world fast approaching a breaking point?

Makuta Almanax Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) Indeed...although the presence of Rahkshi is being used to my disadvantage for development reasons, so while he is determined to help the village, I can't guarantee he'll be able to carry through with it based on his apparent descent into the Madness.But in any case, you must love being on home turf in this kind of battle. In a sense it makes us the strongest in the area, although a home advantage means nothing unless our power is used appropriately.All I know is Thentyle's last-resort move if a Rahkshi gets to the mine is to cave in the entrance to the tunnels. The Matoran will be trapped but safe for the time being. I just hope it doesn't get to that point.

Hitoshura Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Then I'd think either Le-Koro or Ga are the worst.Look at their foundations. Le-Koro, on trees. Maybe the Gukko force and the Toa there could help, but a push of a tree and it falls over. Or at least part if it.Ga-Koro, lily pads floating on water. And practically everyone there is fighting. Violently. Maybe they could team up, but it's up to the people that play them. That's just my opinion, so don't listen toe if you don't want to. profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krayzikk Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Well, Ga-Koro also has the two most famous ships in the game preparing to commence an off shore assault. They should be semi-okay.
