Tale of the Terrifying Tank
This story could be a Russian epic: “All happy tanks are alike, but every unhappy tank is different in its own way.”
It could be an adventure: “Have fun storming the tank pit!”
This tale is rooted in science and philosophy, as the needs of the many outweighed the needs of the few.
