* WoundedGazelleGambit: Gabi takes off her armband, strips to her underclothes, and walks out into no mans land pretending to be a wounded soldier. In reality her "hobbled leg" actually has grenades tied to it and, once the armored train gets close enough, she throws the grenades into its path causing the train to go off the rails and smash into a machine gun nest.

Even Reiner's vaulted Armored Titan is no less vulnerable as proven when he loses his arm and later still takes a whole volley to protect Zeke's Beast Titan.
