Kikowani district contained multiple open areas, housing corporate buildings, separated by large walls with tunnels inside them. The tunnels were accessible through massive doors. [[New Mombasa Transit Authority|NMTA]]'s [[Kikowani Station]] was located here, accessible from the city's [[New Mombasa Sector 0|Sector 0]].<ref>'''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''', campaign level ''[[Kikowani Station]]''</ref> | |||
== History == | |||
During the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Battle of Mombasa|attack]] on the city in the [[Battle of Earth]], the area was flooded, likely due to the seawall breaking. Numerous [[Huragok Recharge Station]]s were deployed to the area by the Covenant. | |||
A battle also took place here, between [[Alpha-Nine|a squad]] of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODSTs]], and a large number of Covenant forces, including a [[Type-47 Ultra Heavy Assault Platform|Scarab]]. During the battle, the ODSTs destroyed multiple Huragok Recharge Stations, as well as most of the Covenant forces present in the area, before flying out of the city through a tunnel in a stolen [[Phantom]] dropship. | |||
