Well, their own honour system demands that they submit to anyone that bets them in a fair fight. :P<br/><br/>(FYI, I figure Erich is a G1 P3; Amazing at the shooty, not so much the maneuverings)<br/><br/>Edit; Erich is doing what any good 'mechwarrior does when faced with infantry in an urban area; lure the little shits into the open so he can vapourize them. What he doesn't know is that A: even his PPCs can't vaporize an elemental without a follow-up, and B: the elementals can keep pace with his 'mech's walking speed. And, finally, C: He has no idea if he even managed to hit the four he shot at; for all he knows, they just turned off their IFF transponders while near-missing from a metre-wide energy beam.
