The Menkent line has been established.

Helldivers have valiantly defended Lesath and Menkent for days, and for the time being, have halted the main advance of the Automaton assault. SEAF and civilian laborers are hard at work fortifying these planets against further incursion, and forward operations have been set up on Vernen Wells to support nearby defensive operations in the sector.

However, the Automaton war machine refuses to relent, and they are now attempting to circumvent the Helldiver defenses by wrestling full control of the path to the west via the planet Marfark. It has come to our attention that the bot fabricators, also known as “Factory Striders” are being used to push a hole through the Helldiver line. Focusing their entire effort towards a single planet, the bot offensive on Marfark is sure to be fierce, and our forces will no doubt struggle to hold this critical planet positioned on the flank of our defensive line. The enemy must not be allowed to gain any momentum - this offensive must be arrested, whatever the cost.

    Slightly unrelated, but I sometimes see players program beacons while moving, which as a PC player isnt possible by default. Is this a controller only feature when they can run with a stick and type the beacon code with the cross buttons?

    I would really like to be able to run away from shit while typing out an eagle strike but can’t see how that would work on PC.

      I have a 12-thumb-button MMO mouse. My strategem keys are 8,10,11,12 for up, left, down, right respectively. Works great.

      As a controller player, I do this. I move with my thumb on the analog stick and my index finger hitting the d pad with my middle finger holding the L1 button to trigger the stratagem menu.
