[edit] Prelude

"Stragglers were inevitable. And this time, they were almost welcome."
— Prelude to the ambush

After the evacuation of Jacinto and Operation: Hollow Storm. Dominic went into the woods to find himself and dealing with the fact he'd killed his wife when Marcus tried snapping him back into reality. Until they discover a group of Locust Stragglers.

[edit] Ambush

"Manners are the bedrock of civilization. Let's meet the asshole halfway."
— Sgt.Fenix

Sgt.Fenix called in command for reinforcements. Command send in two KR units and a Centaur. While Anya took her APC to meet up with Dom and Marcus who decided to lead two man ambush. With Dom and Marcus already laying fire on the Locust stragglers. PA-776 parked near three APCs some without full armor plates[5], reach the ambush site and one Gear squad gave Dom and Marcus fire support.

[edit] Reinforcements

With the Corsper trying to circle around the defense line around Port Farrall and heading for the refugees along the main road from Jacinto[6]. Lt.Anya was forced into crowd control with the citizens leaving Jacinto and requested armor from Lt.Mathieson which was difficult since the CIC Truck had no eyes on the ground. With KR-35 and C-28 arriving the KR was able to take out the Corsper and the Bloodmount. With the arrival of Coalition reinforcements the Locust stragglers where nearly whiped out except for one Locust grub which was captured and 

tortured by Gears until Marcus recommend to Bernie just to shoot the grub which she did undergrounds that torturing it would hurt her back[7].

[edit] Aftermath

Baird was angry that he was unable to get any information from the grub and how he wanted to capture another one, but the idea was shot down by Fenix[8].
