Tell them there's fighting, and that you dragged a fallen comrade to safety. Both very likely, with ARM troops around.

You think talking about an ARM attack is the thing that will scare civvies the most? It's pretty much a given that chaos will break out within a few turns.

I think the phrase 'ARM troops have been sighted in the area' in roughly synonymous with 'you will be better off killing yourselves and saving them the trouble'.

Well, a few members of avalanche team have been knocking on people's doors and telling them that everyone is going to die, and hurricane or someone is about to hit the mansion. I was going for damage control.

Eathquake should totally stress those automanips. It's totally good idea!

Besides I want to see what happens.

Yeah, they could just run away from the shuttles, and let them breath in the lurker-spores or whatever.

One gets the feeling the UWM wants this to happen...

Perhaps a bit of Comrade-ing and other unconventional attacks might be in order?

Oh yeah, sure. Why don't you come over from the other side of the planet again to come and watch, then we'll get right on that.  :P

Deploying Comrade Chuckles is an interesting option, but I have the feeling 'restraint' or 'careful application of force' are not concepts it would be acquainted with.

If you know / can find out the exact locations of the automanips, a single judicious microwave / magnetic / other non-physical amp / manip might get through to take them out, allowing conventional attacks.

True, but the problem is that there's at least 12 of them, flying at high speeds toward us (making a precision attack all the more difficult. Then again, +4 might be enough). I dunno if we can take them out safely, and a single mistake might trigger the overload.
