Although to give the Unisols credit, there were being activly kept subjugated.  Most
HoE cyborgs were unable to break free of their AI untill after the Big Bang when
their AI's stopped being repaired and updated.  Every time you fight the AI it
weakens a bit, but the base techs would fix it up for you.

Another thing to consider is that teh UniSols were in constant communication with
their controllers, who gave them orders as needed.  This provided a solution to the
no-inititive problem of automatons, which in HoE was surpassed by given Cyborgs free
will and then imposing enough restrictions on them that is they didn't do what you
wanted they were badly punnished.


IMO HoE cyborgs shuld be able to rip UniSols into little peices without effort, but
maybe I just want to see Jean-Claude killed.
