Dark Events (LW2)

Dark Events in Long War 2 are tied to two particular activities COINResearch and COINOps. The COINResearch activity handles tactical Dark Events, while COINOps handles strategy Dark Events. Long War 2 redefines many Dark Events to be of permanent duration, so once achieved they persist for the rest of the campaign. These are typically in the form of an “upgrade” to one or more ADVENT/alien units. Other Dark Events are of limited duration. Because of this, is it possible for more than 3 Dark Events to be active at once (indeed, 10+ not uncommon).
Different Dark Events affect specific classes at the following rates.
