A pun on the angry mob I read recently:
it is about an infantry mob, but only has melee range weapons which instantly kill infantry, and destroy light vehicles very fast. Against tanks and buildings they throw each other on them until the attacked ones explode or the mob dies.

In my honest opinion, this idea would be better suited if it were suggested as a zombie mob. Since mobs are already slow moving, and you want them to insta-kill infantry within arm's reach, plus destroy armour at a rapid rate, a zombie mob fits the bill a bit better. The stereotypical cannibal would be armed with very primitive weapons and would do jack to anything with armour.

lol, I think even a 'Terrorist mob' would self-destruct itself in a few seconds

I like this idea, even that terrorist mob idea.

Terrorist Mob already exists in Contra.

I remember once thinking of making a "Feed the Mob" upgrade for the Cookie General, which would make all the mob guys fat but stronger.

Zombie mobs sound okay, but they don't seem to fit with the GLA. Maybe they could be a special non-skirmish faction useable in special mission maps.

Terror mobs sound like fun. I don't remember them being in Contra, but it that is a problem, maybe the Demo General's Angry Mobs could have a couple of terrorists in them instead, which would respawn after a short while.
