Therefore, charging at these units with bayonets or chainsaws is pointless.
Wretches almost always appear in groups of 5-6 units, but you will often encounter even bigger groups.
Their primary tactic is a rapid frontal attack.
They don’t make fancy maneuvers or hide behind covers - they will always charge towards the nearest soldier.
Sometimes they attack along with other units, such as a Drone or Grenadier.
In this situation, the ranged units use Overwatch mode and Wretches attack your soldiers.
If you move, you will receive damage from the ranged units.
If your soldier stays in one place, they will get attacked by a Wretch.
Wretches will also stop their movement.
When you have a go at move, they will automatically attack your units.
This will make your units unable to engage in combat with more dangerous enemies.
They are a formidable opponent - making no decision or wasting action points is a very bad outcome.
However, you have to count how many action points you have.
If enemies are close, you must fire at least as many shots as enemy units.
Scout with their shotgun works great here.
This unit has a short but wide range of fire in Overwatch mode and is perfect for short-range combat.
In case of problems, the Scout can use their basic skill and hide from enemy sight.
For example, Heavy can use “Explosive Shot” to eliminate several units.
The Sniper class has skills that add action points for hitting or killing an enemy.
A sniper rifle easily eliminates such units with a single shot.
