Asgard Prime contains the greatest known supply of metals, and once was the primary home of the EAA's military vehicle manufacturing facilities. Given the relative supplies of these valuable metals on the colony worlds, recapturing the planet is of high priority to continue fueling the reconquest efforts. The Resistance forces on the planet are more cohesive and effective than on other worlds. It seems some of the factories may still have remained operational and under human control, allowing them to better defend themselves and conduct insurgency tactics.

Small task forces were sent to the planet to establish contact with  Resistance groups. Only a single ship, badly damaged by weaponry of non-Scourge origin, returned to report on what transpired. The Resistance forces, initially welcoming, soon betrayed them and ambushed the UCM. The system's foldspace nodes were shut down minutes after the surviving ship jumped back, locking the door into the Asgard system. It appeared the PHR had influenced some of the surviving humans and turned them against the UCM, but the system was now locked from entry.

Not all the troops perished in the ambush. Some escaped with still-loyal Resistance fighters, who shared with them a great prize they had hidden away; a still functional spacecraft from the days of the EAA. A lone soldier broke through the defensive fleets of the Scourge and PHR, dying in the process but managing the jump the ship back home. An audio log brought with him told the UCM of what was transpiring on Asgard Prime, and informing them to keep watch in case the surviving forces reactivate the node.

The two moons of Asgard Prime, Valhalla and Sessrumnir, also had installations built prior to the Scourge invasion, but their purpose is unknown. Scourge presence is high on both moons for similarly unknown reasons.
