Surprise Attack on New Artakha! Armed matoran from The Town with No Name surged across the bridge connecting their city to New Artakha in an attempt to establish a new colony. Unfortunately for the leaders of The Town with No Name, their 1st Battalion was hampered by its lack of resistance to New Artakha's element, and the better prepared 2nd and 3rd Divisions couldn't quite pull off the victory alone.

The Town with No Name
1st Battalion (Medium Attack, Medium Defense): 6 attack.  No Air Resistance
2nd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense, Air Resistance): 10 attack.
3rd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense, Air Resistance): 10 attack.
Total: 20 attack.

New Artakha
3rd Squad (Light Defense): 2 defense.
2nd Battalion (Heavy Defense, Light Defense): 8 defense.
5th Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense.
Total: 22 defense.

Ten Billionth Failed Attack on Harakeke Metru! In what is becoming somewhat of a pattern, Luri-Metru tried and failed, once again, to conquer Harakeke Metru. With the strength of the Luri-Metru Army growing at a faster rate than that of Harakeke, the watery realm is bound to fall sometime, and it is rather surprising it has not already done so. We are sure to see this familiar battle repeated soon, but perhaps next time with a different outcome.

Luri-Metru
3rd Battalion (Light Attack, Light Battle): 3 attack.  No Water Resistance
1st Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Battle, Water Resistance): 11 attack.
4th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack.
Total: 23 attack.

Harakeke Metru
2nd Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense.
1st Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense.

[ShadowVezon]

Another Division with Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense and Air Resistance.

[Trijhak]

Purchasing 2 squads (2 x [1]) with Heavy Defense Ability each (2 x [7])    

 

Also a Battalion [3] with Bridge Destroying [9] and Heavy Attack Ability [7].

 

Then two Squads (2 x [1]) with Heavy Battle Ability (2 x [7].)

 

Finally, a Battalion [3] with Heavy Attack and Heavy Defensce ability. (2 x [7])

 

TOTAL: [68]

 

When the Battalion with bridge destroying is... created, I would like to use it to destroy the bridge between Hurricane and The Town With No Name. I am getting the feeling that my neighbour is up to something not good for me and my airy brethren. Granted, I do want to conquer my airy brethren. About time I massed my own units, too. 

[ShadowVezon]

I have no plans to attack you, Pulse. The air resistance is not for you.

[Shadowhawk]

I'd like to buy a Market for Marauder's Waste, please.

E: In this case, it's actually a Black Market, ha.

Since an attack against a bridge still involves randomly selecting three units, if your unit with Brige Destroying is not among the three selected, the attack will fail. Do you still want to try, though?

[Trijhak]

No. SV has told me he is not actually massing for an attack on Hurricane.

I think you can guess the reason I'm getting Air Resistance.

 

I'm just going to keep trying, until I get lucky and have Resistance across the board. Once I achieve that, the combined power should crush the opposing city.

Lia Conquered! Despite a treasury overflowing with widgets that could have paid for a far stronger defense, Lia was caught unprepared by Hurricane and its newly upgraded army. Though Lia was unprepared, its citizens still came very close to repelling the attack and saving their city. Very close, but not close enough.

New Tahu Conquered! In one of the most overwhelming victories ever seen in these lands, the combined might of Luri-Metru and Harakeke Metru crushed New Tahu's defense. Both Luri-Metru and Harakeke brought enough firepower to the battle that either one of them could have been victorious alone, and together their strength was great enough that it is a testament to the bravery of the defenders of New Tahu that they did not simply flee at the sight of the enemy.

Harakeke Metru (Supporting)
1st Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Battle, Water Resistance): 11 attack.
5th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack.
2nd Army (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 18 attack.
Total: 41 attack.

Luri-Metru
2nd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack.
3rd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack.
4th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack.
Total: 36 attack + 41 attack = 77 attack.

New Tahu
3rd Squad (Light Defense): 2 defense.
2nd Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense.
8th Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense.
Total: 26 defense.

Note: the rules stated that "Units automatically have resistance to the element of the location their city is in, and this automatic resistance does not take up one of their properties." To be clear, units have resistance to the element of the location their city is in . . . when they are purchased. I have edited the rules so that they reflect this. This means that all of the units currently belonging to Harakeke Metru have Fire Resistance, since they were purchased in Luri-Metru. Eventually, I will probably have to denote each unit's automatically gained elemental resistance in the unit lists, as it may become difficult to remember where a unit originally came from. For now, though, it should be obvious that the units in Harakeke were not originally purchased there, as if they were they would not have needed Water Resistance.

Hello, Lewa of comedic fame! Glad to have you here.

 

Majhost is only down for maintenance, so I hesitate to abandon it yet. For now, here is what the map looks like. There are bridges which allow any city to attack any adjacent city (horizontally, vertically, and on angles), except that Christmas Town has destroyed all the bridges connecting to it. The color of the text represents the element of the city: green is air, red is fire, blue is water, and black is ice.
