| ~ Official Description |
Tibit is one of the five planets that reside within the Severin Sector. It compares quite similarly to Turing in the Umlaut Sector. As part of operation Swift Disassembly, intel analysts were able to identify the planet as the most significant producer of illegal Automaton combatants in the sector.
Topography[ | ]
The planet is comparable to Turing in the Umlaut Sector, with it's landscape characterized by dense forests and rocky plateaus. Many helldivers remarked on its vibrant, colorful plant life, which spreads silent and uninterrupted across its entire surface. Some Helldivers have also referred to Tibit to as a purple Malevelon Creek, both due to some similar terrain and it's status as a major Automaton stronghold.
History[ | ]
Special Military Operations[ | ]
Operation Swift Disassembly[ | ]
Liberating this planet would significantly impact the enemy’s capacity to replenish decommissioned socialists. It would also limit further theft of the planet’s natural resources from future generations of inarguably sentient humans. However following the setback that was the Ubanea Gambit and despite a valiant effort by the Helldivers to regain the initiative even with the failure of a major order looming, the Automatons would ultimately hold Tibit and it's manufacturing facilities, at least for the time being.
In the aftermath the Automatons would begin increasing production elsewhere through the use of Factory Striders and Gunship Facilities, decreasing Tibits strategic value. However intercepted bot chatter includes expressions of great sorrow for the "murder" of in-development bots - a transparent attempt at disinformation, as bots can neither feel nor be considered alive. Even so, the simulated oaths of vengeance may indicate actual strategic intent. With a counteroffensive likely.
After successfully weathering the automatons desperate counter attack, Tibit was finally liberated during the fourth and final phase of Operation Swift disassembly. Though much of the worlds industry had been moved off world, the destruction of the remaining factories on the planet forced the enemy to distribute their existing forces more thinly, lowering their planetary resistance (from 1.5% to 0.5%). This would be the beginning of the end for the Automatons, with the Severin Sector being fully liberated a day later. Out of an abundance of caution, SEAF teams would search what remains of Automaton facilities and servers for any additional intelligence, right up until the surprise invasion of the Valdis Sector and Lacaille Sector several days later.

Trivia[ | ]
- Tibit was one of the planets that suffered incredible losses during the contentious move of Creekers to stay on Malevelon Creek leading up to Tibit falling to Automaton Control for a time. It is still a contentious discussion, as some believe the immense death toll and time it took to liberate would of been significantly reduced should Helldivers on the Creek have helped.
- Tibit was the deadliest Automaton planet liberated, with 47,806,703 KIA dying in the process of liberating the planet up until July 2024.
- It would be surpassed by Menkent with 92,620,293 Helldivers KIA as of October 9th, 2184.
