There were none, save for extremely powerful explosions that could easily destroy them.
Unless this mysterious man had such a thing, it would be difficult to do so.
As if on cue, a rocket fired off from down the street, only for it to prematurely explode along the tank.
It had shielding
English
-
Suddenly, a voice with the traces of an Arabic accent and a hard synthetic edge spoke in tesuto's earpiece (or whatever he has) "Do you have any energy weapons in your military force?"
-
"I will look through our arsenal." Was the response that came, as the tanks moved through the streets of the village
-
"Because we need those tanks blinded. If we do that. I'm almost certain I can find some way to neutrilise them. And one more thing..." A rock was thrown from somewhere at a tank. The person looked on, curious.
-
The rock hit the shield, and floated in it for a moment before bouncing off and falling to the ground. The tank aimed it's Cannon and where the rock had come from, firing a round towards the site
-
"Exellent." The mysterious person was long gone.
-
"What exactly was the point of what you did?" The Samurai's voice asked over the comms
-
"Bow we know how the shield works
-
"Interesting observation...." He was heard speaking to someone else on the comms for a moment. "We have a rocket." The gatekeeper said, and being heard over the comms once more
-
"Can you remotely detonate it?
-
"Why? Would it not be more beneficial to fire the rocket?"
-
"No. Rockets will do nothing against that shield. However, they will interuppt vision. Now, the second test." A small walking drone walked into the tank's shield from behind.
-
It was shocked on entrance, and fell to the ground deactivated as the tank Continued down the street
-
"Ah. Well. That's internal deactivation ruled out."
-
"What is your analysis?" The Samurai asked

"Explain please." There was alot of background chatter for a moment, before the tank came to a halt.
-
"You tell it to firmly. Can you shut off temporarily all dojo comms?"
-
"What would the point of that be? It is not as if they are capable of reading us."
-
"Nope, but I'm capable of reading them. And also writing. Do you notice anything strange about those tanks?"
-
"No. Should I?" There was more background chatter coming from wherever Tesuto was
-
"How about the fact there are no doors?"
-
"Is it potentially A.I. Driven, you think?"
-
"And we can find out how to hack it."
-
"Perhaps. Do you know who we may be able to speak to for this hack?"
-
"Me. I know how machines of this calibre think. But we sill need a temporary shut off of comms to allow isolation of the target frequency."
