Day 1:
The LFC set out on a mission to sabotage the ANVIL mega-depot while the OCIN towers were offline, they traveled through the Alsace wound, a dangerous wasteland in order to reach the depot undetected. The LFC was forced to navigate through mazes of sewer systems in order to avoid armies of zombies on the surface of the wasteland. The LFC lost one of their leaders, 'Scav', to a small army of angry snarks after their nest was disturbed.
Day 2:
The LFC arrived at the docks outside the depot via airboat, scouting out the area in search of an entrance into the depot, eventually finding a crumbling wall in one of the old sewer systems that lead into a part of the depot, they prepared themselves to enter the depot the following day. While the LFC carried out their scouting, a shipment of equipment arrived at the depot. The shipment contained a great number of advanced weapons such as AR2s and a non-combine experimental dark energy gauss rifle. The CLC inspectors attempted to transport the experimental weapon into the facility, though they ended up dropping the weapon off of the bridge, deep into the xen-infested cavern below, the inspectors quickly covered up their mistake and continued on as if nothing had happened.
A civil protection overseer from city 58 arrived at the depot with six of his officers, the overseer had the goal of finding out the Director's control codes so that city 58 could take control of the depot. The overseer was not able to get the control codes by the end of the day.
The dark energy within the experimental weapon exploded upon being exposed to the water, causing a reaction with the Xenian flora in the caverns. Sparks flew from the weapon, damaging parts of the depot in the process, but nobody ever found out that this was the inspector's fault.
Day 3:
The facility began deteriorating as a result of poor management and the dark energy explosion, the chaotic situation gave some workers the chance to resist. The LFC used the chaos to slip in undetected, the LFC infiltrators traveled down to the train in the caverns in hope of planting an explosive on the train, the infiltrators were unable to plant the explosive due to the high number of workers that could see them. The LFC left the train and went to the director's office and with the help of a few revolting workers, managed to install a powerful virus into the director's terminal, all of the automated systems around the depot would go haywire, razor trains would drive off at high speeds, crashing into things and power cells would overload.
After installing the virus, a shootout began between the city 58 civil protection, the workers, and the LFC, many lives were lost in the firefight, though some people managed to escape in the chaos, taking the LFC's route out of the facility and escaping to the surface where airboats were waiting to rescue any escaped workers. The escaped workers would be able to smell fresh air for the first time in years, finally out from under the thumb of the director.
As a result of all of the chaos in the depot, the staff of the depot chose to evacuate, some workers, civil protection, the director, and inspectors all fled the facility via train. The workers that evacuated with the Combine forces were soon put back to work at other facilities, never knowing freedom.
Aftermath:
Sector 10's main production depot is heavily damaged as a result of both the LFC's sabotage and the dark energy explosion, while the situation would have been much worse if the LFC had succeeded in planting the bomb, the depot will still be out of commission for a while, and sector 10 will suffer for it. It will take even longer for the OCIN towers to be repaired.

OOC info dump:
First off, I would like to apologize for that whole S2K situation, the end of the event got really crazy. I hope everyone enjoyed the event regardless, day 2 of the event was the best part in my opinion.
The LFC in this event were main server characters, not brand-new event rebels, so they put their characters on the line for their goals. I had originally planned for this to be a one-day event for the LFC where they sneak past NPCs to plant a bomb, but after the event team reminded me that that would be stupid and boring, we expanded the event to be much larger.
@Jei did a bunch of dev work for the event, like adding the worker suits and adding the passive music, @ConcernedCitizen did all of the amazing proppings around the map (seriously, load the depot map up in singleplayer and check out how different it looks, concerned's propping is amazing.)
If you escaped with the LFC as a worker, you can apply to bring your character to the main server, they will be marked anti-citizen though, but you will be able to share the horrors of the depot with the rest of the world!
Questions:
What role did you play? did you enjoy it?
What could we have done better in the event?
What did you like in the event?
What did you hate in the event?
Was the LFC's infiltration done well?
How would you rate the event out of 10?
