@mu@mastodon.nz MAMMOTHS WITH FRICKEN LASERS STRAPPED TO THEIR HEADS! AND BY HEADS, I MEAN TUSKS! (Parenthetically, there is a full suit of elephant armour in the Royal Armouries museum in Leeds. I haven't seen them—they were off display for conservation—but apparently the armour displayed on the stuffed elephant has a matching set of tusk swords. TUSK SWORDS! No need for a label saying "this end towards enemy"!)
