How about a mantis shaped tank? Or a mantis sized tank that shoots anti mantis mortars? They'd have cute little mantis helmets with holes for the eyes.... awwwww
"When I received my praying mantis, he worked quite well at keeping bugs away, but to my shagrin, he wasn't really praying at all.
I was later informed that my praying mantis is agnostic and has no firm belief in a god. To me, this made him seem like a poser, but he was able to get his job done without thinking about his 'victims'. All in all, a good product. "
