We have a house rule that you can't charge through a unit with less than 2
cm between stands (and some people play that as long as you are in cohesion
you can't), so it really only takes about 4 stands to protect a titan. Even
without this rule, 6 should be sufficient. Maybe you should throw a Medic
or Chaplain in with your cheap troops to bolster them.

Or just move away from the bikes, since the titan is not pinned. In your
case, you can even kill them with your FF troops.
