MAJOR ORDER

In close collaboration with the Factory Hub on Achernar Secundus—whose civilian workers number in the millions—Xenoentomology Center scientists on Turing are on the verge of a breakthrough:

New Alcubiere Drive shielding technology could lead to a new era of Gloom exploration.

Scientific Details: Experimentation has revealed that Gloom spores coat FTL drive components, fusing to them at high temperatures and causing catastrophic meltdowns. A new synthetic polymer coating, using protein structures derived from Terminid exoskeletons, has shown promise in disrupting Gloom spore surface cohesion. End Scientific Details.

Spore Burst Terminids originating from FORI PRIME have spread outside the Gloom, a first for this strain. While this development is concerning, it also presents an opportunity. Biological samples of Terminids from within the Gloom could be the final boost needed to mass-synthesize effective Gloom shielding polymers.

The Helldivers are ordered to collect 30,000,000 Rare Terminid Samples, particularly those in the Jin Xi sectors. Additionally, they must hold Turing and Achernar Secundus, protecting our brilliant scientists and their vital engineers.
