Line 3:
* ''[[Schlock Mercenary]]'' takes this to heart, especially Kevyn, who wears ''antimatter grenades'' on his ''shoulders''. One of those antimatter grenades is capable of slagging a tank, and the other has the yield of a good-sized ''nuke''.
** Schlock himself runs around with two sawed off ''anti-tank multicannons'' and an oversized plasgun. The multicannons are especially ridiculous because he can hook up feeders and, quote, "fire breacher rounds on full auto."
** One of the most popular books with mercenaries in the Schlockverse, ''The Seven Habits Of Highly Effective Pirates'', contains several appropriate quotes on the subject, as shown in the quotes section for this trope. The one that quotes this trope practically verbatim can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20131026191010/http://store.schlockmercenary.com/PhotoGallery.asp?ProductCode=P-R37 in poster form].
** Actually subverted on one occasion, in which Schlock mocks two enemies for aiming anti-tank weapons at him. They tell him that they're not worried about a little overkill, to which Schlock responds, "OK, but you might want to use your anti-tank weapons [[Oh Crap|on those tanks behind you.]]"
** Schlock's immune system is itself a form of overkill, it allows him to survive practically anything, even including foreign nanites.
