EM adds a statuegeist which spawns Infected Patrol Captains, which can hurt Ursus Civilians. Two extra roadblocks appear.

Notable Enemies

Infected Patrol Captain: Standard enemy foot soldier that can attack Ursus Civilians.
Ursus Civilain: Important protection targets or else cost LP when dead.
Tactical Crossbowman: Summons Scrap drones locking on to the first allied unit in their attack range.
Scrap: Enemy drone with low targetting priority and bombards allied units, dealing splash physical damage and lowering allied defence. Significant threat and needs to be baited.

Notable Sui hours and Risk Coin debuffs

Stage Strategies

Open with Raidian running S2 on the bottom right ranged tile.

Breaking the roadblocks lets the Ursus Civilians route towards the top lane away from the Infected Patrol Captains.

Bait/kill the initial Tactical Crossbowman at range to free up ranged tiles in the center of the map.

Destroy the statuegeist as soon as possible.

Dish damage at the War Phantoms when they stand at the top left checkpoint.

Bait the subsequent Tactical Crossbowman with your units.
