We all know zombies are gonna be the apocalypse.OniKon said:usually I would rattle off several strategies involving nukes, EMP, direct energy weapons, paradoxes Etc. but now thanks to Daniel H. Wilson I can point to this book
and say "pretty much that"
OT: A virus, EMP or paradox would work. Or dump lots of water on them so they rust.
Why perfect humans? They're still useless against machines.
Whether these perfect humans can lift 150lbs or 250lbs, they can't over-power a machine that can lift up a car.
What was need is a giant EMP nuke, or to try and negociate terms. (I want my bionic body...)

I don't know what you're talking about sir, because those films NEVER HAPPENED!Issalius said:
... I still lol'd though.
OT: I'm jumping on the EMP bandwagon. Failing that, conventional bullets. I don't care if they're robots, we just pump them with enough AP rounds and they'll go down, the only possible problem a machine war could ever have in store for us is that the robots, being immune to morality, would have no problem with masse nerve gas deployment and other atrocious methods of warfare.
Apparently you can defend against EMP's though, an uncle of mine worked for the electronics company Marconi in their RnD department on exactly that. I would elaborate but that's litterally all I know on the matter.
Riiiiight.... what's all this EMP nonsense? As stated by three other posters, sentient machines with hyper-intelligence would realize this weakness and construct massive Faraday Cages [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage].
Honestly, read up on EMP before jumping on that bandwagon, folks.
