History[]
Second Galactic War[]
Interim (Oct. 27th - Oct. 28th)[]
Yed Prior was, for most of the Second Galactic War, just another unremarkable colony of Super Earth, its colonists fishing along the whitened shorelines of this crimson planet. However, if there's something that Automatons can not stand, it certainly is peace. For Hatred is embedded into their code.
By September 2184, the Tanis Sector had become a frontline of the Second Galactic War, as the Automatons itched to get the resources necessary to restart their expansionist campaigns after the complete eradication of their western holdings at the Battle of Troost back in August.
After the fall of Clasa on September 19th, Yed Prior and Zefia became encircled alongside with nearby Demiurg, which prompted the colonial officials of the 3 planets to immediately commence preparations for a potential invasion.
After the fall of Zefia on October 23rd, Yed Prior's colonial defenders would receive news of a buildup of Automaton forces at Clasa as they prepared for a new assault. With Zefia's refugees piling up at Yed's spaceports, the situation was critical, and when the Automatons eventually attacked Yed Prior on October 27th, shortly after Liberty Day, Yed Prior's colonial defenders were overwhelmed and, as such, called for the Helldivers.
However, the Helldivers, having to devote resources for the defense of Gatria in order to prevent the loss of the Jin Xi Sector and the Terminid Research Preserve with it, were unable to answer to Yed Prior's call.
Yed Prior would fall on October 28th, after a valiant yet feeble defense against the robotic menace, its colonists going into hiding in secret underground bunkers and safe havens throughout the planet, as all FTL Lines connected to Yed Prior led to Automaton space.
