Terminal Three

As the anarchy and chaos of the African continent sprang in all directions, the Combine needed to address the serious concerns raised by the Sectorial Administration across multiple branches. Fearing a major resurgence of a refugee crisis the Combine weren't able to handle, Terminal Three was established to ensure the successful relocating of the populations of Africa. The journeys were perilous with many devolving into savagery or outright being pursued by growing swarms of antlions in countless numbers.

Terminal Three's time was running out, but managed to percevere as steady amounts of reinforcements, such as left-over synthetics and masses of conscripted battalions were to secure the area. Interestingly enough, Terminal Three shows as one of the only locations where the Combine's invasion force and its occupation force both fought against a common enemy - one that can easily overwhelm practically a third of the planet's mass in a short period of time.

As the final major masses were relocated, the survivors cheered, beating back the swarm. It is said that the usual case of detecting an antlion swarm being inbound was simply one word being screamed at the top of the soldier's lungs:

"BUGS!"
