This thread has been replaced by hordes of rampaging Krogoth machines!!

The Krogoth machines are being eaten by Von Neumann machines and the component parts are being used to build new nanobots.

I need to be really old to understand that, right? Like your 25-minute song about cops and stuff, Gwylifar? :/

Von Neumann machines are a favoured plot device by Sci-fi writers. It is a self replicating device.

Not old, just geek-literate.

Though I don't know what a "Korgoth" is, so we're even.

Krogoth's are the Total Annihilation Ultimate unit (at least before you install mod's) requiring their own building and enough comms to fund an awesome army of flash tanks and it looked like your generic mech from Gundam Wing/Battletech/Macross Plus (in other words - any generic mech orientated anime).

Oh, I wasn't asking... I have Google, I can find answers if I want to. I was just reassuring Shiri, I don't know just about as many references as he doesn't, they're just different references.

And no, I didn't read that long string of baud-barf that passes for talking on that other thread.

Edit: changed "Nejii" to "Shiri".
