Background

Meridia Super Colony was recently created, Helldivers successfully managed to disable the TCS on the other Barrier Planets just in time, making them avoid the fate of Meridia. Meridia started to produce a lot more spores than other infested planets. Meridian spores started to spread around neighboring Sectors, Orion and Jin XI Sectors.

Strategy and importance

Pandion-XXIV wasn't a key planet back then. Terminids wouldn't do much, if they took it. Additionally, Major Order tasked Helldivers with liberating Acamar IV, that if liberated would cut off the planet making it easier to be liberated later.

The battle lasted for 24 hours, Helldivers didn't manage to defend it.
