YOUR AVATAR IS THE SUCK. DO NOT COMMENT ON THIS THREAD UNTIL THE BOOBIES ARE BACK.

although I did like my other avatar. It had that level of uncertainty. I think that is a good feature of an avatar.

but my new avatar leaves little doubt to what they are.

I can't see how anyone would think they were a man's ass. But the other maybe could be confused with a woman's ass. And what guy would get his ass tanned? A woman would do it though.

What kind of field? Magnetic field? Electric field? What generates it? What effects does it have on the 'bots?

There is no such thing as cold fusion as far as we know. At any rate, the only kind of energy source compact enough is chemical, but then there is the major, major problem of refueling.

That means enough intelligence to control movement, and enough energy to detect, locate, and analysize signals and act on them.

Well, you need the abilities to store information, transmit information, analysize information, and has the ability to resist interference.

the only problem with this is that i still think getting shot would damage some of the nano-machines, eventually leading to his demise when he's shot over and over (he'd eventually lose "chunks" of himself). Perhaps the nano-machines have some sort of shielding.
they could self replicate to replace the destoryed bots using raw materials readily available in the surrounding environement
