=== ''Brothers in Arms'' provides examples of the following tropes: ===
 
* [[A Father to His Men|A Mother To Her Men]]: Tessa, ridiculously so, to the point that she felt guilty for not having a Christmas present for her newest crewmember, who got there ''four hours'' before Christmas day. This trope is even pointed out by said crewmember
* [[All Your Base Are Belong to Us]]: The all-out offensive against Mithril, including a devastating air/Arm Slave/ground attack that left Meridia Island an irradiated hellhole and, according to Wraith, flattened the Sydney headquarters in a cruise missile strike, and destroyed all other branches of Mithril except the American branch.
** The assault by Amalgam on Washington DC, along with Soviet reinforcements.
Line 49 ⟶ 47:
* [[Mildly Military]]: Given the same treatment as in [[Full Metal Panic!]]. Garon ''does not'' like Commander Mardukas, is willing to say so, and doesn't even bat an eyelid at dating his commanding officer. Tessa seems to have a bit more trouble swallowing the fraternization problem, but in the end is just as quick to stop caring as she had been when she was trying to get with Sousuke in the source material.
* [[Monster Clown]]: Wraith describes Sousuke's Kashim persona as this, which is, in itself, a [[The Dark Knight Saga|Shout]] [[The Joker|Out]].
* [[A Father to His Men|A Mother To Her Men]]: Tessa, ridiculously so, to the point that she felt guilty for not having a Christmas present for her newest crewmember, who got there ''four hours'' before Christmas day. This trope is even pointed out by said crewmember.
* [[Mundane Utility]]: Arm Slaves, top of the line combat weapons costing several million dollars each...used to cut down a Christmas tree.
* [[Never Bring a Knife to a Gun Fight]]: In the desert battle in Garon's first mission, when the enemy Shadow pulls its [[BFS]] and jumps up to try to land on him, he just calmly shoots it while it's incapable of dodging.
