Majosa was a mid-sized town in Tyrus, located several hours southwest of the Jacinto Plateau. Originally founded as a worker village for the Kildoran Arms Company's factory, the town grew over the course of the Pendulum Wars, and was known as a small, but potent, center of military manufacturing. The emergence of the Locust and their destruction of much of mankind's industrial assets early in the war rendered Majosa an incredibly potent strategic location, with the COG establishing a permanent garrison in the town. It was because of this important that Majosa was chosen as one of the few deployment locations for a highly experimental and classified technology known as a Fabricator, meant to return manufacturing capabilities to the now-seriously depleted Coalition.

History[]

The town's origins begin with the purchase of several acres of land by Obadiah Kildoran, third son of a noted Andiusan industrialist. Kildoran set up an gunsmithing factory, originally intending to produce firearms for the hunting and civilian marksmanship markets. Kildoran paid to establish a small workers' village nearby to house his new work force. The Kildoran Arms Company saw quick success, with several of their early model bolt action and semi automatic hunting rifles becoming immensely popular. As such, Kildoran looked to expand his business and, with the continually increasing scale of the ongoing Pendulum Wars, looked to acquire highly lucrative government contracts.

Initially, he was only able to secure local government contracts, supplying local police and constabulary departments with their precision rifles. These were generally well-liked by police forces, and were made famous when the Montevado Police Department used a pair of Kildoran Model 114's to kill Ricardo Chedenas, head of the Chedenas crime family. The police snipers managed to eliminate Chedenas and three of his closest lieutenants at a distance of over half a mile. This propelled Kildoran Arms and its products into national spotlight, not only increasing demand from both existing civilian and law enforcement markets, but even attracted attention from the COG Ordnance Department who offered Kildoran a contract to manufacture the state-designed SR48C Longshot. Kildoran was quick to accept, using the initial payments of the contract to further expand his factory and production lines.

As the factory grew, so to did its workforce and, by 70 B.E, Kildoran Arms Company employed nearly six hundred people in various positions. Due to this, other small businesses began to spring up around the workers' village, who brought their own families and employees with them. This soon swelled the town's population, and it was not long before it was officially incorporated into its local municipality.
