## Event Overview

    The sinister General Geir continues to lead his forces into the sector, spreading chaos as he goes.

In the midst of the fighting, Keres may have found a way to rescue the corrupted Iron Star troops, bringing the rebels some much needed relief.

It won't be easy, and her discovery is meaningless if the rebels can't hold off the Demon Corps.

## Trivia

* The Event Trailer was released much earlier then it was thought to be.
* The Event was supposed to have 8 prizes but was cut to 4 when Kixeye were getting feedback about too many prizes. The result was moving the Aurora Ray and the Gemini Driver to the new Corinthian Riot and the Wave Driver Moving to the now Classic Lance Riot and jokingly moving the Gatling Ray Turret to a blackhole (Insisting that even Kixeye knows no one wants that thing).
* After 1 Hour into the event, Kixeye changed the Event fleets back to the Crossfire event fleets after noticing the old fleets were a bit too easy. This caught many players off guard and thus Kixeye received backlash in the forums.
* The Brimstone Torpedo in the old event fleets would only explode half way when fired. This meant you could dodge them by just flying away.
* The old event fleet did not have a carrier, making it one of the few to not have one and the reason why the fleets were changed to Crossfire's.
