Animatrix

Animatrix: The Second Renaissance. As war broke out between humanity and machine, the UN initiated their most desperate and final solution into slowing the machines advance. Operation: Dark Storm. The operation commenced with UN bombers deploying the shroud over Eastern Europe[2], which soon encircled the entire planet. While the humans were successful in "scorching the sky",[3] Operation Dark Storm carried tremendous costs both for the planet and humanity itself. Without energy from the Sun, much of Earth's life did not survive, virtually leading to the total collapse of the biosphere, in which crippled the machines power supply temporarily but the machines were able to quickly adapt without solar power, Operation: Dark Storm did not also block the sun and temporarily gave humanity an advantage but also severely crippled a vast number of humanity's military equipment as most of those relied on solar power. during the early years of the first Machine War,it seems that humanity had the upper hand since they initially were facing against weak obsolete machines until in the later years they encountered more formidable and powerful machines like the Harvesters and Sentinels which easily crippled most of the human fronts, A.P.U's had it worst,they would be disabled and had their armored plating opened to dismember the pilot from their cockpits brutally, while infantry were killed in one swing or get swatted aside easily. in the end the machines were victorious and they captured most of the humans to be used as their new power source and therefore, the Matrix was created.
