*The Mantis is very deadly to [[M12 Warthog]]s. The [[M12 Warthog LRV]]'s [[M46 Light Anti-Aircraft Gun|M46 machine gun]] is rather ineffective against a Mantis and the [[M12R Warthog]]'s [[M79 Multiple Launch Rocket System|missiles]] can easily be sidestepped by a Mantis at various ranges. The only Warthog a Mantis pilot should be weary of is the [[M12G1 Warthog|M12G1 Gauss Warthog]]. The Gauss Hog's [[M68 Gauss cannon]] can kill a fully shielded Mantis in three shots. The best way to deal with any Warthog is to use the Mantis' missiles, which can lead to flipping the Warthog and may even splatter the former occupants, or if the Warthog is close use the stomp ability. | *The Mantis is very deadly to [[M12 Warthog]]s.

Once they've fired their missiles they should once again get back into cover. | ||
