​
Central Africa has long been a mysterious and violent frontier of the Combine Empire, a major thorn in the side of the political entity that would later become the Fifth Sector of SOL-III. While the Antlions in the North are robust, fearsome creatures, with hard chitin shells and bodies adapted for the harsh Sahara, the Antlions of the Congo are soft, plump, and slow, with hives lush with fattened grubs ripe for the picking.

Enter Lepointe, a town founded upon a joke.

"... Je le répète, nous ne pouvons pas aller plus loin. C’est le point le plus éloigné que nous puissions atteindre!"​

A somewhat famous line barked down a radio receiver by P.M.A. Captain Faron Lachapelle has come to define Lepointe: "the furthest point we can possibly reach." In place of the rather ungainly "Eternal Jurisdiction Forty Two," The Point, Lepointe, sits at the very edge of Sector Five's control. Its primary function as a river settlement has been to act as a delivery hub for the precious medicinal "nuggets" found within Antlion larvae, the Congo variety being known for its particularly potent quality, rumored to be used extensively by the sickly Breen himself, given how much of the region's export goes straight to City Seventeen, Sector Four.

Lepointe is sustained by a marginal relocation program and often seems to serve as a dumping ground for unwanted or unneeded from Sector Five and beyond. The surrounding jungle is infested with both the horrors of Xen and every kind of Rebel. Its Governing council is weak, its authorities corrupt and its people unruly.

EJ-42 sits on the edge of the world, the edge of ruin.

One has to ask themselves, what's Lepointe in it all?

Lepointe is a Half Life 2 Roleplay Map set along the Congo River in Africa. The map was originally created for the HL2RP server Netspark which seeks to explore a unique take on Half Life 2's lore; where following a failed uprising by Lambda, the Combine's occupation of Earth has largely ended. The now Human occupation of Earth, led by a Breen too sickly for an advisor host body, now grapples with matters of succession, sector infighting, the "question" of the Suppression field, and a looming second Uprising by a resurgent "New" Lambda.

The map features the following:
* A massive jungle with a winding rivers, a dam, quarry, cave system, village, and tunnels.
* Buildings such as a Nexus, a colonial mansion, and boat houses.
* Various shops, bars, garages, and other stores.
* A factory & dock within the City.
* Functional gates and a bridge both along the river and road.
* An admin box & main menu room.
and much more!
