The Citadel (Full Interior) – Save
If you like it, please consider rating it!
From deep beneath the earth to the dark clouds in the sky, over the remains of one of the finest urban centers, the Citadel stands taller than any structure known to Mankind as the main symbol of the Combine hegemony over Earth, crushing any hope for human freedom by its sheer imposing sight.
Earth, a planet once dominated by the human species, is now but a tiny, irrelevant fraction of the ever-expanding Combine domain.
Hey folks!
This is a recreation of the Citadel from Half Life 2, made from props and published as a Save.
The exterior was made accurate as much as possible, and the interior with creative liberties.
Originally it was meant to be a dupe, but it was too laggy.
Therefore it is being posted as a Save, which has a better FPS performance.
______________________________________________________________
There is an entirely made and decorated exterior, as well as complementary details.
Railways: Connected to all three sides, they bring cargo through trains from across City 17 and nearby locations.
Walls: Surrounding the entire Citadel, this mechanical façade protects it from ground attacks.
Watchtowers: Soldiers observe the Citadel’s surroundings from afar, and can sound the alarm in case of an eminent attack.
There is an entirely made interior, and you will find Elevators that help you navigate the Citadel more easily.
They also give you some cool views of the interior.
Earth Administrator’s Office: As Dr. Breen’s office, it is a luxurious and crutial location at the top most of the Citadel.
Dark Fusion Reactor: As one of the two main sources of energy present in the Citadel, it powers the Combine Teleporter.
Airwatch Landing Area: The main sector for the landing of Hunter Choppers and Gunships, it contains the communication center of the Airwatch.
Pod Storage: A large section of the Citadel, dedicated to the storage, transportation and maintenance of the pods, which contain Stalkers.
Railway Control Center: The cargo of the trains are transported and storaged, which mostly consists of new pods, weaponry, vehicles and equipments.
Core: As the main source of energy, it provides power to all sectors of the Citadel.

Sunset: The sunset effect used in the video was done thanks to the awesome dupe "Sunset", by Aurora.

Height: According to my ultra high tech calculations, this Citadel has an approximate height of 640 meters (0.4 miles). In other words, although a quite tall dupe, it is still FAR from the real estimated height of the in-game Citadel.
Sources vary, but its height may go from 2.5 km up to 8km (1.5 up to 5 miles).
Prop count: This save has 3196 props.
