The male Haunts probably thought they were in the clear, until machine gun fire mowed them down. Being a well-rounded squad, there was an anti-infantry mech on standby for them. However, the skirmish was going poorly for the mechs and something had to be done. "Fall back! Fall back! We're taking too much fire!" Their leader shouted as the mechs started backing away. "When we get far enough, launch a drone! I need to see what we're up against! Exact numbers!
