Ah yes, The shield issue. I suppose the problem for the T-850 is the lack of...a solid grip if that makes sense. The brutes and Elites have large either pawed or clawed hands, making them able to secure a from grip. Would the T be able to do the same?

hmmm well I guess the skinless hand could be considered clawed sorta? I don't know well enough how Halo shields work

Grabbing wouldn't be a problem, shields only activate if something moves fast enough within their range.

How do they hold guns with shields turned on around them ?

From what i recall they can dial the strength low-high on any part of the armor. A spartan would make the shield low for the palm since they need to hold guns. I remember there was an instance where Chief had to cross a field of Anti-Tank mines. He put a majority of the shields strength into the boots and legs. He noted it was like walking on greased ice.

Oh ok. Could the T be strong enough to overcome it ?

grip wise I would think so.

Oh ok. Could the T be strong enough to overcome it ? perhaps, maybe if he played smart and weakened the shield first with explosives. Skynet built its Terminators to have highly detailed files on every man-made weapon, this means that it has perfect working knowledge of every weapon on the battlefield. This knowledge could give him an edge.

Also I should point out the Terminator is in "read and write mode" meaning it's able to learn and adapt.

Just thought of something, couldn't the Terminator win by ejecting one of his fuel cells and throwing it at the other two combatants?

That means that the longer this goes on the more it will start to learn MC's patterns and start calculating counter measures against them.

We went over something similar to that in the Skynet vs Republic debate. The 850 would only eject his Fuel Cells for 1 of 2 reasons: A-It gets ruptured: the 850 will eject it and more than likely toss it at his opponent because....well its the smartest thing to do. and B-It is about to lose and pulls a "Predator F-U", blowing his cells and taking them all with him.

It can analyse the weapons and tech it doesn't know about.
