== Individual Behaviour (개인적 행동) ==
Individually, a Machina is instinctively driven to grow and become more advanced, as well as to seek pleasure as much as possible. This behaviour facilitates the survival and advancement of the M2 Nanomachines too. Her instinctive need to experience new stimuli that tests her abilities causes new adaptations in both her body and [[M2 Nanomachines#Characteristics|Gene-Code]], as they are linked to each other. By enhancing the Machina's sexual prowess, seeking pleasure is almost always sexual in nature. The sex obsession displayed by nearly all Machina causes the proliferation of M2 Nanomachines and the sharing of Gene-Code improvements between Machina. Because Machina are driven to engage in sex as often as possible, there is no effective way to hoard Gene-Code improvements among most Machina. This removes the possibility of stagnation by ensuring that no Machina may simply accumulate Gene-Code improvements and keep them for herself to the detriment of others. Machina must always improve via their own efforts to stay ahead of the constantly-advancing baseline.

Outside of conflict, almost all Machina pursue interests that are often, but not always, carried over from their previous lives as humans. Machina often seek to master techniques, accumulate knowledge, or simply enjoy themselves as much as their new bodies can experience, all of which is often blended with copious amounts of sex.

마키나는 본능적으로 성장하고 진화하며 최대한의 쾌락을 추구한다. 이를 통해 체내의 M2나노머신도 생존 및 진화하며 마키나와 나노머신의 상호 공생 관계는 이를 기반으로 구축된다.

== Combat Against Humans ==
+
Combat behaviours of the Machina and how they are fought against are influenced by a few factors. The first is their incredible durability thanks to their [[Machina Biology#Machinium|biology]]. When the Saturn invasion occurred the Machina were already extremely durable, thanks to the strong survival drive of the M2 Nanomachines within them. Combat against the [[United Human Federation]] and megacorp security forces, which would become the [[United Operations Forces]], at Saturn merely accelerated their evolution towards extreme durability. By the end of the Saturn invasion and especially by the time of the Jupiter invasion, Machina were able to ignore almost all weapon systems which did not involve [[REPAIR Equipment#Weaponry|magnetically-accelerated kinetic-energy projectiles]].

Another factor is their numerical inferiority. Even as they overtook the Jupiter system, corrupting the near-total cityscape of Ganymede and the many cities of Callisto, the total amount of humanity corrupted into Machina equates to about a tenth of humanity, with most of the human populace still overcrowded on Mars. In addition, not all Machina are capable of combat by their standards. Many Machina exist only to [[Machina Classes#Injector%20class|create more]] M2 Nanomachines and other Machinium-based life, to further the spread of corruption. While all Machina possess incredible durability, strength, and speed, these Machina would be armed only with these basic features should they be caught up in combat. Therefore, combat Machina are almost always a small group attempting to conquer a far larger number of human combatants.

Therefore, Machina fighting against humanity takes the form of carefully planned feints, diversions, flanks, rear-line disruptions, and highly mobile coup-de-grace strikes to circumvent the UOF's tactic of massed guns and being too risky to attack head-on. Machina, while incredibly durable, do not rely on this alone. They utilize their unending endurance at all levels to never be where the humans are targeting in the first place. Therefore, if one were to observe a Machina attack on a strongpoint, the observer would see platoon-to-company sized Machina elements racing with unnatural speed across the battlefield, leaping over obstacles, and dashing out of the way of human targeting, taking on a battalion-to-division sized human force. The observer would not, however, see the many deceptions and weakening strikes conducted by the Queens to arrive at this final attack.

Machina are highly proud and superior creatures, and while they are immensely confident in their ability to never truly die, thanks to the Main Cluster, they still would never wish to be destroyed and cease functioning. Every Machina values herself and other Machina above all else, and their tolerance for casualties is very low. Disruptions to their plans will often cause Queens to not launch an action or withdraw from a current one. It is this way that the fewer-still women of [[REPAIR Program|REPAIR]] are able to repel the Machina, to various extents.
