Plasma Weapons

                         

Why couldn't skynet just make more plasma weapons for their terminators? It decided not to because it would get reverse engineered by the resistance and use it against it. I believe if skynet just focused on contemporary weapons instead of the next generation ones then the resistance would be doomed. Plasma is super heated energy balls that comes out of the gun and melting humans and other things with it. The TX terminator was a big upgrade then its precursors and it had a plasma cannon integrated into it. Its a  unique model because it cant be reprogrammed by the resistance and all its combat capabilities makes it very deadly. Skynet lost the war due to giving the resistance what it needs to win. The resistance wouldn't be able to put a dent with their weapons, only high tier weaponary would be required to beat the more advanced terminators such as the t 800 and up. The t 800s were the pinnacle of the most advanced technology skynet ever created.  Skynet fell short when plasma weapons came into the scene. There triple armored hyperalloy chassis are very durable and can take alot of punishment before going down. When Kyle Reese in terminator 1 shot the terminator with a remington shotgun it really didnt do much damage to its chassis or internal systems just temporarily stunned it. M16s, pistols, shotguns, or even a grenade launcher wont be enough. Plasma is also hard to resupply and to make more takes some time. Even though its more deadly then alot of weapons, its still a risk it might get into enemy hands. John Connor won the war by reprogramming skynets own machines and with very powerful weapons at his disposal.

Cool Terminators

        Cool Terminators 

I think the coolest terminator and a very deadly one would be the t 1000. Like being made out of liquid metal is pretty cool with fast regeneration. It can take a lot of punishment and keep getting back up. Phased plasma weapons can hurt its molecular structure and kill it permanently. The tx terminator was a model that fought against a t 1002 and killed it with one shot of its plasma cannon. It can form stabbing weapons and shapeshift into objects its own size but no machine parts or components. Its able to blend in with the floor and go in vents. It can get glitchy if taken to much damage and lose most of its mass. Its strength is stronger then the t 800 and can run up to 40 mph. Given it has a molecular cpu it cant be reprogrammed. It can either go rogue or follow skynets mission. Molten metal and corrosive acids can permanently destroy it. Liquid nitrogen can freeze it in place but wont totally kill it. The t 1000 can think independently then other terminators and change its template whenever it chooses to take on another form. A grenade launcher to the abdomen can split its body and thus cause a glitch or malfunction in its system. If the damage is not too great it can reform itself but if not then it will eventually be destroyed given enough damage. Can walk through fire or explosions without receiving any injuries to its structure. The more mass it loses the less capable it becomes. Able to split its mass a little to track a target if it has gotten away. Can also bring terminators online such as the t 800 with its mimetic polyalloy. A single drop of it can reactivate one. Unique model because it can blend in easily with society and impersonate any person. Skynet feared this terminator would rebel against it or make its own group of terminators to overthrow it. Has good understanding of human behaviour, reasoning, emotions, and anatomy. Is proficient with most weapons and can pilot a helicopter plus other vehicles. Its invulnerable to contemporary weapons but can be severely damaged with ballistic, incindary, electrocution, and explosions.

The T-XA is an experimental autonomous terminator that is composed of mimetic polyalloy and has some similar abilities to its t 1000 cousin. It can form stabbing weapons, its limbs, and reform itself. Its far stronger, agile, and much more resilient then its predecessors giving it a big advantage in combat scenarios. Has shown to shrug off a lot of damage with ease and was shot constantly by a heavy plasma turret for 10 minutes before being destroyed. Very good shapeshifter such as morphing into a cat, dog, and other things. Able to split into many parts of itself, can control humans by injecting fragments of themselves with their essence and other animals. Able to lie and persuade others to believe that skynet is the future by brainwashing them.

The T 731 was a terminator that was created by skynet and updated to serve as a stepping stone to the old terminators such as the t 600 series. They were made to have additional armor plating and were called heavy hitters due to their combat chassis and being able to serve as frontline assaults against resistance forces. They can sustain heavy fire and are very durable compared to the t 800. They are slow and cumbersome as resistance fighters have limited creativity or any independent learning at all. There strength was substantially increased as they can crush a humans skull with one hand. They were usually deployed with no living tissue. They were designated to defend important targets.

Skynets tanks

Terminator HK Tanks

The HK tank was created from skynet to counterattack the human resistance and in the future wars to come. It is developed from the t1 tank. It has two rotating plasma cannons on each side and big treads to move over terrain. Its height gives it its intimidating presence. It can be destroyed easily with a demolition charge. Its power source is a fusion reactor. Its a deadly tank on the battlefield and can be reprogrammed by the resistance. It can be used for parts and weapons if need be. Once its targeting system finds you, you only have a few seconds to react or else it will destroy you. Its made out of hyperalloy which is a really durable material that can take alot of punishment. Bombs and other weapons like the plasma guns will destroy it as well. A HK tank can house a specific terminator inside of it. The t 900 can pilot it but t 800s or t850s cant. Its treads are a weakness and it's head. It was originally developed from the t-1 tank that was an autonomous assault ground vehicle and had an optic sensor hud, two twin miniguns, and treads. The HK tank is far more deadly then its predecessors as its as big as a house and shoots violet plasma.                                    ( T-1 Tank)

   The HK tank is a powerhouse of a tank but every tank has its weaknesses. Skynet tries to find solutions with every unit it has created or used to further its learning. It refines its designs, modifications to it, or makes a completely new model. In one of the terminator games, John Connor controls an HK tank.

The FK titan tank is an interesting tank that has a pretty powerful plasma cannon on it. It changes the atmosphere, ecosystem of a planet. Its not meant to be a combat tank. It was used for skynet in a different future.   

                                                                           .      Annihilation Line

    

The resistance called it the annihilation line because of skynets armies that swept across its landscapes in huge numbers and wanted to  crush the humans by forcing them to retreat to the sea and then beat them there. It used to be California what was left of it. Skynets been trying to hunt down the remaining survivors with terminators, tanks, hunter killers, etc. The terrain, infastructure of the building have been turned to little more then ash and debris. Dr Mack, a scientist tried to slow down the machines march by uploading a virus  to them but has proven hard if not futile. Terminators have been moving into different locations to destroy more humans, etc. It was skynet playground to crush all resistance forces and pretty much everything that is living. They have been almost proven successful but was stopped by an unpredictable attack that stopped all the machines. Kyle Reese and Jacob Rivers managed to save some prisoners by destroying the factories and terminators. They were the only ones that survived. Not many survived but some were sent to skynet work camps to be incinerated or to do its labor as slaves. Alot of the human captives were greatly malnourished, dehydration, just bad environment. Skynet just uses what its available at its disposal and just wants to crush humans. It does keep humans for scientific work such as the collaborators which are people who work for skynet and teach terminators the psychology of human behaviour and anatomy. Many resistance soldiers and civilians died either by starving in skynet work camps, being killed by terminators or natural causes. There was an hk centurion lurking in California but Jacob Rivers destroyed it. A lot of humans don't make  it past the annihilation line because of terminators, hk tanks, hunter killers, and starvation even. 

How Skynet Almost Wiped Out Humanity

                                    Dr Miles Dyson

 Skynet knows what it knows. Its a super AI intelligence that became self aware. It saw humans as a threat to its survival and started the nuclear holocaust on humanity wiping out billions and infastructure. It only cares about its self preservation meaning its own survival and nothing else. It controlled the whole network, satellites, factories, etc. For a human to learn something it might take a day or two but it would take skynet to learn it within seconds. Miles Dyson was a scientist who worked for Cyberdyne Systems Corporation. He rose through the ranks to becoming the director of Special Projects and developed a revolutionary cpu called a neural net processor which would later be called skynet. He had to create a new cpu from another cyberdyne factory from two pieces of advanced technology. The terminator arm and cpu. He just used its parts to create the new cpu from it. Sarah Connor tracked down Miles by talking to the terminator from an unknown timeline to help her. Connor destroyed his prototype and then they headed to cyberdyne to destroy all his work so it doesn't get into enemy hands. Miles Dyson died in the cyberdyne building blowing him up and the technology. After the destruction of the facility, it was given over to the US military and named cyberdyne research systems. Dyson wasn't a bad person but I guess he went too far with his project. He thought what he was doing was going to aid humanity not try and destroy it. A machines that never gets tired, never sleeps, no food, water etc. Almost like no need to have a pilot.  Dyson bled out of his wounds and died in the movie terminator judgement day blowing up the cyberdyne facility in the process with a detonator in his hand. Miles Dyson had a son named Daniel Dyson and his wife Tarissa Dyson. He was born in 1988 and saved his dad when Sarah Connor wanted to kill his father for the wanting to create a micro processor that would eventually become skynet. In August 1997 skynet lauched the nuclear holocaust and the humans  had to go underground to resist the radiation levels from above till it got better. He later became an augmented soldier or specialist. He did die in one of the terminator timelines. Most resistance members such as John Connor and others didn't trust him because he was the son of Miles Dyson. John found out that Daniel had the source code of skynet in his computer and thought he was working for the machines. Reese captured a t 800 and Daniel took the main cpu out and put a reprogrammed cpu in it. He wants to infect terminators and make them fight for the resistance and control them to counter skynet. He died against a T-XA in a different timeline.

Skynet makes peace with humanity

Skynet Made Peace With The Resistance 

                                    

 In the novel terminator salvation, Skynet was being under attack by Thomas Parnell. The serial killer was remade by skynet as TH terminator and was a good prize for skynet with his intellect and weapon proficiency. He later decided to control its terminators as well as wanting to put itself into skynet eventually being him as opposed to it being itself as an AI. His control over the machines was growing rapidly from 25 percent to 80 percent so he was becoming a threat to skynet and the resistance. He was manipulating skynet for his own ends. Its last resort was to contact John Connor and bring Marcus Wright back online in order to bring John Connor a message and to make skynet understand what it was doing wrong even though it doesnt have rational logic like humans can. Skynet made a truce to John Connor not to destroy each other but that they can rebuild humanity again. An AI super computer like skynet realized that humans were special and that they can create life and that machines all along were trying to replicate that. Machines and humans were fighting the same war but skynet could never understand what they were fighting for or what having purpose was. They just were looking out for there own self preservation. Parnell used a remote controlled terminator to kill Connors unconcious body he underestimated him. Skynet decided to transfer Connors personality into a terminator in order to stop Parnell from taking over and destroyed him. Parnell had the best technology that was built into him and still he lost. 

  

They should make anther terminator movie and it should star Marcus Wright again. I think he was a good actor in terminator salvation and can make a return. Hes not really dead because his flesh, heart etc will just be regenerate again because he is an advanced terminator and the first to be transformed into a TH terminator hybrid. Whats amazing is that he is the only terminator to rebel against skynets wishes and take out that tech that skynet was controlling him with. What makes him unique is hes still human even though he was constructed to be both machine and human parts. He saved John Connors life quite a few times and should be rewarded for it. The new movie should be called terminator ressurrection. If Marcus is in the ground when skynet needs him then they should make a sequel about skynet being under attack from extraterrestrial aliens, AI, or the Thomas Parnell. He doesnt die at the end of terminator salvation even though he gave his heart to John Connor because hes a terminator.
