'''Visorak Battle Rams''' were war machines designed to be pulled by [[Visorak (Rahi)|Visorak]].

==History==

Visorak Battle Rams were manufactured on the industrial island of [[Xia]].{{GregCitation|OGD|page=180|post=7192|lines=9,10}}

When [[Makuta (Species)|Makuta]] [[Teridax]] ordered [[Sidorak]] and [[Roodaka]] to occupy [[Metru Nui]], Roodaka organized the transportation of several battle rams to the island city. There, they were used by the Visorak to invade and conquer various areas of Metru Nui.

[[Toa Hordika]] [[Matau]] and [[Nokama]] once hitched a ride underneath one of these battle rams in an attempt to sneak into the [[Coliseum]]. They were brought to Roodaka, who examined the ram and then told the Visorak to burn it, pointing out that it was damaged. Upon arriving at the furnace, Matau created a tornado to bring him and Nokama to safety, crashing the battle ram and its Visorak drivers in the process.{{ComicCitation|C27}}

==Features==
Each Visorak Battle Ram possessed a powerful battering ram, which was used to forcefully break into fortified establishments. Battle Rams were incapable of independent movement, and were instead pulled by a number of Visorak.

Each ram also had a catapult, which were used to launch giant, flaming boulders.

==Set Information==
