I just got a haven defense retaliation (4 turn evac timer, reinforcements coming every turn) where there at least 8 aliens on the map, clustered together near the starting location, when the mission starts. In my 1500 hours of LW2 I've never seen this happen before, and I've never heard anyone suggest that this should be possible. Can you confirm that this is not supposed to happen?
This is LW2 1.5 with some UI/QoL mods, nothing that affects game mechanics. I can give a more detailed list, but I'm mostly trying to get confirmation that this is a bug so that I can fix it with console commands instead of losing my legendary ironman campaign to this.
