Territory Status: Day 19

It goes without saying that Meridia is no longer a valid target for Terminid assault. If nothing else, this is one less location to spread the Helldiver's forces thin across.

As the war progresses, it becomes clear that our original method of describing a planet's inhabitants' resistance on a relative scale, such as when we described Meridia as ten times the strength of Erata Prime, is inconvenient! Instead, we will now simply describe them as percentages, with these percentages being an approximation of how much of the planet's surface the enemy retakes in any given hour. 

As the hornet's nest has been kicked, Terminid hives continue to spring up and fight harder than before. Fenrir III was assaulted, but the attack was quickly quelled. Resistance on Erata Prime has jumped from 1% to 2.5%, a rate that Acamar IV shares. All other Terminid planets except Turing lose 3% of SEAF progress every hour, while Turing itself is the most difficult, at 3.5%. As Meridia has been "secured," supply lines once again open up to Estanu and Crimsica in the Draco sector.

Unfortunately, a majority of Helldivers have elected to assault Turing first, which is brazen ignorance for the most recent orders from High Command to prioritize Automaton territory, where SEAF control is hanging on by a thread. As a robotic invasion marches on Vega Bay in the Ymir sector, less than 10% of Helldivers have moved to defend it. Many innocent citizens on the planet spend their final moments wondering where their saviors are before the Automatons murder and display them as gruesome ornaments in their hellish outposts. Most troopers on the bot front, in fact, have elected to retake Vernen Wells. Perhaps they have not yet been informed that control of the planet will not return the training grounds lost there when it was originally stolen by the bots. Either way, if nothing changes, we may very well see the Automatons invade Super Earth itself one day.

As the galactic war rages on, we have nothing but today's personal orders left to share with you, dear viewers. Stay tuned to hear them!

❄️ ESTANU LIBERATED 🌐

SUCCESS, HELLDIVERS

Terminids have been pushed back. Keep on fighting, Helldivers. Liberty never sleeps.

Okay but it would be a REALLY funny move by Joel if one of Esker or Estanu WASNT attacked during this MO.

It would be realistic too. How would we know exactly where the bugs try to attack us from?

[calico-strawberry]

...anybody else notice that Cyberstan changed the type of planet it was? It used to be the same type of planet as Fori Prime with tremors and now it's the same type of cold planet as Estanu or the current Lesath defense. Or maybe the same planet Tien Kwan was.

SES Pledge of Starlight: Do Not Engage (Again)

This is SES Pledge of Starlight, reporting in for a standard update.

The bugs continue their incessant campaign against Gatria and Phact Bay with a ferocity and fervour not seen since their insistent attacks on Estanu. Fortunately, as we all know, the brainless bugs are incapable of learning or adapting, and are yet to realise their inability to break through Super Earth's unyielding defence.

Our emphasis has been on Gatria. The bloodstained world's ion storms have been increasingly irritating, but we've destroyed several bug's nests and spread democracy across several regions of the war-ridden world. There's little to note beyond our increasing familiarity with the local flora.

The Orbital Napalm Barrage is now available on a temporary basis. We intend to make use of it as we transition to Phact Bay. From our limited observations, it's an effective rain of fire for holding back hordes and immolating enemy emplacements.

Admittedly, we've taken brief detours in our defences. Once to Trandor, once to Partion. We didn't deploy with any expectation of victory. Just to...taste the air, so to speak. To revel in the experience of being in the Sten Sector. Knowing even the bug home worlds aren't safe from our advance any longer. I can smell the freedom soon to come...

However, my day was ruined after a recent revelation. For some inexplicable reason, some super destroyers seem to be reporting Illuminate activity, as if the squids somehow returned from their venture to another galaxy. In case it wasn't obvious, this was clearly a technical error caused by Automaton disinformation. Do NOT engage with any personnel who believe these BLATANT conspiracies. They simply intend to distract us from the real war effort ahead of us. Super Earth space is entirely safe. NOTHING can sneak up on us, and anyone who believes otherwise needs a nice long conversation with their local Democracy Officer. We have enough REAL enemies as it is without bringing ghosts of the last century into the mix.

That's all for this send-off. Remember your loyalties, Helldivers. Remember what we fight for. SES Pledge of Starlight out.

It has been a very long day on Estanu and Oshaun...

Not gonna leave until that baby is on 100%

Galactic War Status: Day 60 + 61

As Day 60 began, the defense of Estanu was lost to the Terminids. On the bright side, Aesir Pass was finally taken, with many Helldivers having already moved ahead to Matar Bay. Later in the day, the bugs jumped yet again to Hellmire, shortly before also landing on Esker. As the day closed, the Helldivers continued their assault on the Automatons, with the rest of the SEAF incapable of fending off the advancing swarm.

Day 61 has been less eventful. Matar Bay has been reclaimed, and, according to the Battlefront system responsible for monitoring the war, Automaton resistance is beginning to drop, which is supposedly a sign of low morale. While we're not so sure, we'll only have to wait and hope they aren't actually regrouping for a strong counterattack.

That's all on the war for now; we'll see you next time.

Galactic War Status: Day 58 + 59

Things are picking back up again.

After such a rapid success in research on the Terminids, Super Earth has made a surprising, but welcome, pivot back towards the Autmatons once again. As they do, however, scientists have noted that Terminids have begun constructing rudimentary 'towers' capable of emitting more of their spores. What this means in the long run is unclear, but it can only be an ill omen.

Focusing now on the bots, Super Earth intends to split their territory down the middle by pushing through the Andromeda sector and reconnecting with the remaining forces left in the Ymir sector from the defense of X-45. In doing so, nine Automaton planets will be left stranded across the Andromeda, Trigon, and Ymir sectors as the Federation would utilize its newly regained territory as a Maginot Line against further Automaton reinforcements from the north.

Cut off and weakened, the vulnerable South-Western bots would be easy prey for the Helldivers to mop up, quickly reversing much of the land lost throughout this war. An enticing promise, it would seem, to many citizens.

Beginning on Aesir Pass, the Helldivers must then push to Marfark before finally taking both Martale and Matar Bay. Only with all four of these planets secured will the Ministry of Defense's plan succeed.

On Day 59, the bugs made a move on Estanu, and although many Helldivers put up a valiant defense, it appears to be nearly lost to the swarm. As the day closes, Aesir Pass is nearly under SEAF control. Hopefully, with the time constraints they're under, the Helldivers can pick up the pace soon.

We'll have more for you another time, but for now-

Give 'em Hell, Divers!

Galactic War Progress

Welcome back to our newest segment on the progress of the war, viewers. We know it's been a while. We'll pick up right where our last status left off.

Although it had the strongest resistance at the time, the Helldivers pushed full-force into Crimsica, securing it within two days before moving onto and clearing Estanu in just one day's time.

Given their aversion to the heat and raging firenados present on Hellmire, Helldivers then focused on Fori Prime, clearing it in just one day as well. Although the Esker system in the Falstaff sector came under Terminid assault and has subsequently just been lost, the consolidated forces of the SEAF have now spent nearly twenty-four hours hammering the surface of Hellmire and are projected to completely wipe the Terminid scourge from it within the hour of this report's time.

Once Hellmire is complete, two whole days will remain to secure the final planet designated by the major order, Nivel 43. That is, it would be the final planet if Terminid spores had not reached all the way from Oshaune into Fori Prime once again, forcing the SEAF to mount a defensive campaign in order to prevent its reinfestation. While a majority of the Helldivers corps sees fit to finish their tours on Hellmire first, a majority of those left over are focusing on Fori Prime's defense, while half as many are attempting to proactively take the fight to Oshaune, cutting off the spores at their source. It all depends on the soon-to-be incoming troops from Hellmire as to which strategy will win out.

In order to secure the victory of this major order in the face of the unexpected difficulty in holding Fori Prime, High Command has permitted the deployment of additional FLAM-40 Flamethrowers to all Super Destroyers for twenty-four hours, which started six hours ago as of this report's airing.

Finally, yesterday, SEHC notified all operatives that the planets currently undergoing Hive Breaker operations are releasing an 'abnormally high' level of spores, with the Ministry of Science believing it's a survival response to the destruction of their subterranean hives. While High Command urges Helldivers to continue hive-breaking as planned, this raises questions as to what may come of this. With previously untouched worlds such as Esker coming under fire and the relatively rapid reproliferating of bugs across Fori Prime's surface, these spores might prove to be more of a problem than the Federation has bargained for.

That's all on the war for now, but we hope to get some belated segments on the adjustments to the Helldiver's armHiory out soon!

Give 'em Hell, Divers!

SES Pledge of Starlight reporting for duty

How fitting we should announce ourselves at the beginning of a new dawn for Super Earth and Managed Democracy. With the end of the Automatons, we must no longer fear their interception of our broadcasts, and thus we have gained permission to partake in this experimental communication event.

Periodic updates will be submitted for public review regarding our participation in the war effort and our experiences in previous and ongoing campaigns. Please note that we specialised in lower-intensity operations and our forces are not yet authorised to assist in the more daring operations.

Should you have any questions, statements or observations to share with us, please access our comms relay. We accept all incoming transmissions.

Now then, to business.

Today has marked the extermination of the Automaton Legion that has wrought devastation across countless liberated worlds. Our earliest assignment against the bots was during Operation Swift Disassembly, on the assault on Troost. We were not there at the beginning, but we were there at the end. On Maia, Tibit and Durgen we did our best to ensure victory for Super Earth.

While all of our crew exult in the eradication of this menace, some are sullen at the prospect of a newfound inability to spill oil. Others are appreciative that days may yet go by when the relentless, freedom-hating chants of the Automatons do not echo in their ears.

We are committed now to the eastern front and the reclamation of the worlds infested by the bugs in our absence. Our current position is Estanu, though we expect a rapid victory here. Soon we will advance to the other worlds as commanded by the present major order.

Pledge of Starlight, over and out.
