How about adding in a new size class so that it would read:
infantry/vehicles
heavy tanks/knights
Super heavy vehicles/titans/gargantz

Vehicles that would be heavy tanks would be things like the Baneblade
and Tempest, whereas things like the Plague Tower, Collossi, Leviathan,
and Skullhamma would be super heavy vehicles.
