Earth are robots, highly advanced robots that are looking like humans.
They're living in peace, humans are just a myth from the distand past.
One day, an archaeologist discovers an ancient cryogenitic chamber and
accidently revives several hundred frozen human soldiers. These start
to kill
the robots, these are almost defenseless against the savage organic
monsters.
Soon, the humans start to attack robot cities. They plant bombs, act
as terrorists, use ancient nukes to nuke robot cities.
The point is : The robots are the good guys, unlike in the Terminator
series.
Is that a good idea? Was it done before? Would humans read a book
where
humans are the villains???
cryogenically frozen, wake up thousands of years later, and decide,
appropos of nothing, to attack the only sentients left on the planet?
Wouldn't they be more likely to try to get along with the inheritors, at
least long enough to find out what happened the the race, maybe find a
way to blend in?
What if the reason the archaeologists have never found any cryo'd humans
before is that mindless agression turns out to be an unfortunate side
effect of the process?
Or, the soldiers were programmed to consider anyone still alive when
they were wakened to be the enemy?
