The mech units that answered to the colonial government reacted considerably better towards the current crisis.
Unlike the parade mechs that were mostly piloted by mercenaries or ordinary company employees, the military mechs acted more decisively and more brilliantly.
Even if the machines did not fare too well against the most powerful transphasic warbeasts, their bravery and their dedication to their duty demonstrated the quality of Davute's finest soldiers!
One of the unanticipated surprises of this sudden outbreak was the outsized role played by the humble Pacifier mechs.
The law enforcement mech model had become a popular staple for many Planetary Guard organizations in and outside of Davute. It had even become an increasingly more common product among mercenary outfits who found many lucrative uses for it aside from policing a settlement!
One of the known uses for the Pacifier was subduing wild beasts.
