So if both centers had a short range optimal tactic, but he had an unmatched flank at medium or long range, you would take damage from the unmatched flank while dealing none yourself, even if everyone only had missiles. This oral appendage is always exposed, and both the upper and lower lips are clefted to accommodate it when the mouth is closed.What tactics are you and your opponents choosing? Are you 100% sure that your opponents were all missiles and not a single one had another weapon set?Īlternatively, did they have more flotillas (top, center, bottom) than you? As I understand it, If the AI chose a tactic in the center that put their centers optimal range at short but another flotilla at long or medium, the other flanking flotilla gets to start at their optimal range. Their mouths contain a vaguely cephalopod-like beak in lieu of teeth, and the anterior of their lower jaw houses a single hinged, dagger-like mouthpart. Their heads are smooth and hairless, with two wide-set pupil-less eyes, no nostrils, and a narrow, thin-lipped mouth surrounded by a pair of flipper-like tentacles. As a result of this, the Xalanyn rely on mechanical thrusters for movement.
Their feet, in contrast to other humanoid species, project downward in a hyperextended position rather than forward, which renders them incapable of terrestrial locomotion. They possess two arms and two legs, and their hands are tetradactyl, bearing four fingers. The Xalanyn are blue-skinned, gaunt humanoids with mollusk-like characteristics. Įlsewhere on the ring, cylixes of other Xalanyn, though with a different appearance compared to that of the Harbinger, were found by Atriox.
Ultimately, Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 intervened, killing the Harbinger and preventing her from releasing the Xalanyn. The Banished excavated the Conservatory, allowing the Harbinger to gain access its interior and kill Despondent Pyre, stealing data from her at the same time. She promised to help Escharum return the ring to its operational status, while Escharm would help her release her fellow Xalanyn from the Silent Auditorium. Upon her release, the Harbinger allied with Escharum. The Harbinger was released from her cylix by forcing a human prisoner of war, Lucas Browning, to interface with her cylix. The Banished excavated Forerunner subterranean structures, eventually coming across the cylix that contained the Xalanyn known as the "Harbinger". In 2560, the Banished forces under the leadership of its War Chief Escharum arrived at Installation 07. All that you know shall be undone." Escharum: " Good." - The Harbinger and Escharum upon releasing the former from her cylix. The Grand Edict charged Installation 07's monitor, 117649 Despondent Pyre, with guarding the Xalanyn's prison, and assigned Offensive Bias to the ring to aid in this. The Forerunners deemed the Xalanyn to be a threat and decided that the Xalanyn were to be sealed on Installation 07, with some members subjugated for study at the Silent Auditorium on the ring. The Forerunners and the Xalanyn arranged a parley between delegates from the two species, with Installation 07 taken into range of the Xalanyn homeworld. During the century after the firing, the Xalanyn were discovered alive and well by the Forerunners, much to the latter's confusion. They were not indexed by the Forerunners prior to the firing of the Halo Array, and after the activation of the Halo rings, the Xalanyn inexplicably survived. The origins of the Xalanyn were unknown, but they were one of the sentient species that were extant during the fall of the Forerunner civilization. We were wrong." - 117649 Despondent Pyre Designed to destroy all sentient life, nothing was allowed to survive. " Halo was the Forerunners' terrible and ultimate solution to the parasite's relentless advance.
