Antimagic Susceptibility.

The swarm is incapacitated while in the area of an antimagic field. If targeted by dispel magic, the swarm must succeed on a Constitution saving throw against the caster’s spell save DC or fall unconscious for 1 minute.
False Appearance.

While the swarm remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from an inanimate statue.
Swarm.

The swarm can occupy another creature’s space and vice versa, and the swarm can move through any opening large enough for a Tiny creature. The swarm can’t regain hit points or gain temporary hit points.

Actions

Jabs. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 0 ft., one target in the swarm’s space. Hit: 10 (4d4) piercing damage, or 5 (2d4) piercing damage if the swarm has half of its hit points or fewer.
Variant: Firing Squad.

In worlds where guns are common, the soldiers may have been equipped with miniature rifles. In this case, the swarm gains a ranged weapon attack which has a range of 10/20 ft. This attack is otherwise identical to their Jab attack.
