Alien Armageddon

***NOTE: THIS EVENT IS OVER!***

## EVENT OVERVIEW

***[S.Y.B.I.L. Report - 90210928304-A14 - CRITICAL ALERT]***

*Full scale invasion detected - launch date December 2nd.*

*Alien invasion over last several months had undetected effects on the stability of matter within Rebel Sectors. Sectors that fail to adequately combat the Alien invasion may be overrun and their Galaxy may be destroyed. Arm yourselves, Rebels, this battle is for survival.*

## DESCRIPTION

Alien Armageddon is a special event where players in galaxies have to defend themselves against a massive Alien invasion. A galaxy is a cluster of sectors inside the same 1000 range, i.e. 100-600, 1100-1600, and so on.

After the event, the galaxies with the least points are deemed to have been destroyed by the Alien assault, and hence will be removed completely during the next downtime. This is to facilitate a densely packed player population in preparation for the upcoming Alliance War feature.

## Trivia

* Many players thought the game was shutting down due to the galaxies being removed, but KIXEYE has clarified this wasn't the case, instead it was meant to make the sectors more packed for Alliance War.
* This was the second event (after Smash & Grab) to offer free instant refit credits for Tier 6 technologies.
* Alien Armageddon was pushed back from November to December after it was discovered there was a glitch in the event that required a downtime to fix.
* This was the first event that showed leaderboard rankings before the end of the event.
