The 'thumby' as it is colloquially known is used primarily as a drone, an area denail weapon or a distraction, left unattended for months and months on end, endlessly plodding towards its next objective as directed by satellites in orbit, stopping only to shovel organic matter into its highly acidic gut to power itself.
Armed cheaply with a projectile weapon salvaged from the enemy as well as several blocks of their 'c4' the thumbies are quiet effective terror weapons, able to withstand sustained small arms fire, additionally their appearance has proven to be an effective terror weapon, captured Colonesian forces have claimed that they would spend days on end awake terrified that a thumby would find them in their sleep, silently grabbing up soldiers and beheading them with its powerful arms (a standard tactic after their allotted ammunition is used up) before they could make a noise.
