Makuta Almanax Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) This is an island, in the middle of the never-ending ocean. I'm not sure if you guys have realized this, but there isn't anywhere to run.ell, not so long as Makuta lives in Mangaia undefeated. When you think about it, that's probably why the first three years of the Bionicle line had the highest stakes, even moreso than when they fought for Mata Nui's life.

Padishah Mehmet II Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) The island's also rather big. It's definitely less problematic out in the fields than stuck in a village built atop a tree with little to no defenses and honestly I'm not even sure if there's a wall.-Dovydas Edited May 2, 2013 by Eduard Bernstein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makuta Almanax Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I concur with the wall issue. I'm confused about most of the defence systems since I never played things like the MNOLG. I just assumed Le-Koro was a treetop village armed with Gukko armies and bamboo disk throwers.

Mr. House Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Le-Koro is actually pretty defensible. Since I doubt the Rahkshi will use the elevators to get to the village (If they do, you'd just have to cut the cables.). The Gukko Force would be able to fly sorties around the village to prevent them from flying up. I occasionally return to BZP for a nostalgic trip back. Hit me up on discord if you need anything.

Padishah Mehmet II Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) How do you see the Le-Koronan Gukko Force push back a hundred Rahkshi with sorties? These aren't Toa we're fighting, House. This is an army that you need precisely six times as many Toa to defeat in an open field. This field is depressingly open, because if the Rahkshi want to, they can tear down the tree.-Dovydas Edited May 2, 2013 by Eduard Bernstein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makuta Almanax Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Considering how 'well' the Megacity worked on Spherus Magna on the official canon, I get the feeling a megavillage won't go to well on Mt Ihu if we have to do that. Besides, there'd still be a major discord between everyone because of the attacks, with only Toa to enforce order and few to no Turaga to guide the Matoran. Starts sounding like a cross between the Toa Empire and Kingdom.
