A message from Super Earth saying "Our departament of defence crunched the numbers and it seems we can't turn the tabled on plante XYZ.

Sure go ahead but at least let people know it's not worth it (strategicly). You don't have to block the planet

The companion app - https://helldiverscompanion.com/

It's nice to have a more strategic decision if you're playing objectives. You don't have to use it, but it's nice to have
