In 24 hours players will be able to call in planetary bombardments, eagle storms, and orbital blockades with samples and/or req slips to pay for them

Orbital Blockade: Defense Campaigns cannot originate from this planet. The Hellpod Space Optimization booster is automatically active for all missions.
Planetary Bombardment: Fires periodic Orbital Barrages during missions. Accelerates progress in Liberation Campaigns.
Eagle Storm: Deploys periodic Eagle Airstrikes during missions. Slows enemy progress in Defense Campaigns.
The auto Hellpod Space Optimization booster is very welcome, always felt like that should've been a ship upgrade, not a booster.
I agree, it is the booster I always pick because I always have bad luck with other players picking it and then dropping mid-mission.
It definitely makes blockade a bit more viable, but I don’t see the community ever picking it over the other two.
Edit: maybe they don’t have to pick? I might have misunderstood the UI
