Momentarily, the multi-phased assault upon Gnomeregan will begin and Mekgineer Thermaplugg and his men will be brought to justice! Too long has Thermaplugg festered in the depths of our home, defended by a corrupt and irradiated army.

The assault begins in a moment. Be ready, recruit, this fight will not be for the faint-hearted.

Curses! We had to fall back. But Thermaplugg's lost, and he knows it... he's only bought himself time. We hold the surface, and when the radiation clears we'll assault and recapture Gnomeregan with a force twice this size.
 
−  
−
== Notes ==
 
−
The event runs for 20 minutes, so if the High Tinker is not at where players land during {{quest|Words for Delivery (2)|Words for Delivery}}, sit tight with {{NPC||Elgin Clickspring}}. Once a player starts the event, other players have six minutes to join Mekkatorque before he begins the attack. After that six minute window, players will be required to wait 15 minutes until the event resets and begins anew.
 
−  
−
During the event, the regular level ~15 NPCs will be out of phase, replaced by level 80 elites! The party starts out south of the air tower by [[Gnomeregan]]. The irradiated infantry and mechano-tanks are actively hostile and hit hard. To counter this, Mekkatorque buffs players with a health pool and damage boost, while {{NPC||"Doc" Cogspin}} will apply Surgeon General's Warding, a health and resource (mana/rage/energy/runpic power) recovery aura.
 
−  
−
Once Mekkatorque starts the assault, head north to the airfield and take out the four rocket launchers. Once all of the rocket launchers are eliminated, Mekkatorque will move to capture the engineering facilities/surface command post to the northeast, skipping the entrance to Gnomeregan proper. The radiation inside Gnomeregan (starting just outside of the ramp) hits for ~5275 a second, so ''do not'' take a left after the airfield has been recaptured.
 
−  
−
The command post is guarded by six tankbusters. They are initially protected by an immunity shield until the multi-bombers overcome them. Destroy the six tankbusters to capture the command post. Mekkatorque will disable the radiation pumps, allowing the party to assault the entrance. Also, some of the infantry will commandeer battle suits to assist in the assault.
 
−  
−
Mekkatorque leads the party to the entrance of Gnomeregan, where they are met by Mekgineer Thermaplugg's Brag-Bot. Thermaplugg sends the ''entire'' force of [[trogg]]s against the invaders, capped off with {{NPC||Gasherikk}}, who has ~1.9 million health. The troggs defeated, the party heads down the ramp to the elevator, which has been disabled! Everyone is thus equipped with a parachute and safely makes it to the bottom of the shaft. Noting the lack of resistance, Mekkatorque heads through the [[Train Depot]] to the Workshop entrance of the Gnomeregan instance, where they are greeted by the Irradiator 3000.
 
−  
−
It's a trap! Thermaplugg unleashes the last of his forces, led by {{NPC||Commander Boltcog}}, upon the party. After defeating Boltcog, Thermaplugg gloats over his soon-to-be-inevitable victory by setting off the Irradiator 3000. However, it was left with the default timeout of 10 minutes. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Mekkatorque attempts to defuse the irradiator with some engineering reagents. Thermaplugg, noticing the lack of a big boom, realizes his mistake and resets the irradiator to explode in 10 seconds. Mekkatorque quickly orders {{NPC||Jhordy Lapforge||Lapforge}} to teleport the party to safety. They wind up back in [[Tinker Town]].
