That is both my problem and my solution: In past games, I've been too afraid
of losing troops to it, and in the future I intend to swarm it (see below).

One of my very first ideas for a BrikWars army consisted of nothing but a pilot
with a fast vehicle with lots of cargo room, and a bunch of spaceslaves with
MkII Explosives. They would all ride the vehicle, then jump off and run
forward and glom 'splosives to everything in sight. Any that survived would
have the honor of using the MkIII 'splosives back on the vehicle.
But for some reason, I opted for a more "tactically sound" force. Duh! Next
time, I'm just going for the big 'splosions.
