Fire Event Concept
Description
The CODE R.E.D. Event is an event concept on the Tower Defense Simulator Wiki. It would reward the Ignition Enforcer.
The event started on October 31st, 2025 at 3:00 EST and ended on November 23rd, 2025 at 3:00 EST.
Cash is only gained if an enemy is killed, or in some cases, damaged by a specific amount of health. Additionally, the amount gained is a set amount of cash, which is not always equal to the enemy's health. Each player will get 100% of the enemy's cash, regardless of player count.
The base health is also set to 300, regardless of the players' levels, due to the HP Locked modifier.
Interestingly, the placement limit is set to 55, regardless of player count.

Interesting, so how badly were these enemies we already faced ... helped? | ||
 |
Really bad. It's gotten so bad to where even the Molten Warlord joined their team! And we might not have long to research about this, the Conflagration Emperor isn't known for being the patient kind. | ||
|
Understood. It'll be faster if we find out more about this together. So I won't be available to assist temporarily. | ||
|
Good luck, don't fail us now. | ||

Trivia
- CODE R.E.D. stands for 'CODE Remove. Extract. Delete.'
- This was originally going to be named CODE F.I.R.E, where that would stand for 'Fight. Ignite. Retreat. Explode.'
- The boss was renamed to Conflagration Emperor, as the user who created this concept found other synonyms for its initial name, Fire Lord.
- Additionally, most of the enemies' names came from synonyms searched up by the user who created this concept.
- This is the first, and may be the only event concept with images.
- There was no planning on the reward. The user who created this concept just thought of the words 'Ignition Enforcer'.
- Steam-filled Canister was named this because the creator's friend told them that they like the name Steam-filled Canister more than Boiling Tin Can.
- After Professor V says her last line of dialogue, the screen shakes, while a giant barricade appears on the path with 1,000,000 health. The Conflagration Emperor immediately destroys the barricade upon impact, regardless of health. The base health also reduces to 1 and all units on the map excluding Molten Monster get killed instantly.
- This is the first concept that has a Gallery section.
Story
Lore: After calming down the ducks, Dispatcher finds some readings in a fire realm. Pyromancer chooses to sit out on this one. So Dispatcher deploys Scout and Soldier to get another God Cube fragment. After arriving, Dispatcher gets notified that this is a true fight to the death, and Scout and Soldier are in a fight like never before. When suddenly Ignition Enforcer appears behind them, clearly ready to fight any enemies coming their way.
Triumph: Upon defeating the Conflagration Emperor, it collapses to the ground and drops its God Cube fragment. Dispatcher congratulates the team for their true strength and effort, when Ignition Enforcer speaks up and requests to be on their team. Scout and Soldier agree without any second thoughts and the team walks back to base.
