Helldivers 2: Operation Liberty Shield Major Order 73 - Mastia: Marspira Sector (Automaton Control)

PREVIOUS ORDERS STATUS: SUCCESS. The Illuminate have been forced to pay a heavy toll for their merciless campaign of terror. The Helldivers killed vast swaths of the bloodthirsty alien species, sending a message of what is to come should they choose to continue their aggression. Additionally, innumerable Voteless were freed from their twisted existence. Specimens of Voteless and Illuminate both have been delivered to the Ministry of Science for further study. Forensic pathologists have already made progress in discovering the means by which the Voteless are created: The DNA of the Voteless has been altered, interspliced with unfamiliar proteins that match those found in Illuminate corpses. Their brains, meanwhile, are heavily damaged in areas associated with cognitive dissonance. The Illuminate likely sought to assert control over our citizens with anti-Democratic brainwashing, and the resulting dissonance caused permanent damage to their minds. These actions cannot be forgiven. Our citizens will not be safe until every last Illuminate is hunted down and eliminated.
The greatest casualty of the Illuminate campaign of terror has been our citizens' sense of safety. They fear their colony will be next to be attacked, or that their loved ones will be twisted into the Voteless. They trust the Helldivers to protect them, but against this enemy, firepower is not enough on its own. To restore our citizens' safety, the MO Overview Icon Super Earth Government has unanimously voted to enact the Freedom & Readiness to Enable Effective Defense & Obstruction of Mind-Influence Act of 2184, or FREEDOM Act. The FREEDOM Act will give the Ministry of Unity the tools it needs to keep our citizens safe from external and internal threats. It will create a new security force dedicated to loyalty enforcement, and empower them to find and interdict Illuminate mind-influence, dissidence, and other serious crimes. To ensure these tools are use to maximal effect, the Act additionally authorizes construction of the Center for Citizen Surveillance & Safety on planet MASTIA. MASTIA is currently occupied by the Automaton Legion, making it certain to be free of traitors. This will also allow the containment of Automaton influence, which has spread in recent weeks. The Helldivers are ordered to secure MASTIA to facilitate the construction of the new Center. Only then will our citizens feel safe.
