Feature: Ancient Knowledge Recall

You can dig into the deepest reaches of your memories to recall a piece of forgotten ancient knowledge relevant to the current world or situation around you. Usually, this recall is sparked from viewing something in the modern world; an antique weapon, a battlefield's name, another construct-like being, a ruined ancient fortification, a familiar combat maneuver, etc. Sometimes archaic combat techs find these recollections to be slightly bugged and the knowledge of the past is corrupted or incomplete. 

 
Suggested Characteristics

Ancient Combat Tech Constructs are defined by their ability to build, deconstruct, and analyze almost anything in the related to combat. Their characteristics should be reminiscent of this way of life; ever analytical, they should find purpose in the modern world they've found themselves in, with a newfound goal to make it work more efficiently. On the other hand, more decayed Combat Techs could find this same wonder with the goal of completely deconstructing it one piece at a time.
