			The player has the option of enabling an end game dengi invasion event at character creation. This event is set to OFF by default.

Once the amount of played days has reached or surpassed the "days" setting (<code>$days gte $dengi_days</code>), there's a 20% daily chance of the initial event chain to execute. Once that event chain reaches "The Rise of The Dengi King", Ikaanos is invaded by a roughly 5,000+ man strong army of monstrous creatures that'll try to destroy Ikaannian civilization and enslave its surviving citizens.

	~~Skyguard is~~ actively ~~trying~~ to ~~fight this monstrous threat, however~~, and ~~will deplete~~ the ~~dengi warrior count based on a number or factors.

The player can actively try to defeat the dengis, who are harassing The entire Red River Basin and Kasey's Park. By fighting his way through the hordes of degenerates all the way to the Dengi King in Bela's Marsh, the player can also play a ''direct'' role in ending the invasion.

	The ~~active stance~~ of Skyguard provides ~~an alternative route~~ for a non-combat oriented ~~MC who can aid by providing NPCs~~ and weaponry ~~by investing~~ in ~~The~~ Republic ~~at either Fort Hamilton or Town Hall~~.		The Skyguard is fighting back against this monstrous threat however, and will deplete the dengi warrior count daily based on a number or factors. However the Skyguard will also be depleted. If Skyguard troop count drops below 200, and if the king is still alive, the destruction of Ikaanos begins, which immediately '''ends the game'''.

			The Skyguard provides a way for non-combat oriented MCs to try to save themselves without fighting the dengi hordes directly. Whenever there is active conflict, an option will appear at the [[Town Hall]] and at [[Fort Hamilton]], to donate cash to hire troops and buy weaponry, and so create extra units in the Republic's armed forces. There may be a limit to how many military units any one citizen is permitted to sponsor in this way though, to protect the Republic from the risk of rich citizens creating their own private armies.
