their ruling caste is elected / legitimized by terror since.... ever - RU has 0 (none, null) democratic traditions - they switched from hyper-autocratic form of government directly to quasi-mob type structures of communism than again to hyper-autocratic with Vlad as a fake tsar.

Depends on several factors: if the scoutung party is purely reconnoitering to identify enemy positions and such, then yes, avoiding contact would be preferable.Wouldn't a scouting party's job be to reconnoitre and report back rather than engage?
