This felt very unfair to the xenos, we got a palatine who was bound to a chamber for most of the round and was only let go once we were winning, and once it was already a guaranteed xeno minor we got a queen. Marines got at least 2 PMC squads and 2 deathsquads, as well as jihadist preds that tried to suicide bomb the egg chamber/do other dumb shit.

I'm awesome
The pred in the chamber blew up because it was about to drop dead. As they're supposed to. They had the objective of capturing the palatine and/or recovering the egg. The PMCs all had the same objective.
I did not release the palatine until later into the round because I wanted it to be difficult, Xenos also didn't seem to be having any trouble holding off endless assaults so it wasn't needed. Even with my tipping the scales heavily Xenos crushed groundside.

Next time your events are preventing the round from ending, instead of saying 'lol deal with it' please just drop the nuke. With 80% of the players dead and the round pushing 2 and a half hours everyone wanted to be done except for the turbo runner.
The round proceeded because the marines were alive and you were not attacking them. I'm not going to take someone out of the round with admin intervention because the hive is unable to kill them, especially not because they're supposedly the last of their own hive and in fact were not.
I am sorry you did not enjoy the event, but it proceeded satisfactorily to me, excluding it's unpredictable length.

It may have been good to add a special objective for all sides which would result in their victory E.g Marines: Detonate SD, PMC: Recover the Royals bodies ect
Not sure what I would have the xenos do, maybe infest/weed a certain percentage of the Almayer or something possibly have the Royal set up a hive and for Xenos to capture PMCs/Marines for her infect with her royal huggers. Would of been awesome to have ship with like 5-10 predators board the Almayer to try and retrieve the Royals head and prevent the PMCs from taking her.
That round was chaotic and fun, but to prevent it from dragging on too much because of the need to wipe out the other side these objectives would add another way for victory. (It is a rushed rant that I haven't actually thought through, but these are just ideas off the top of my head)
