I can see it now: just get the enemy to breathe in a cloud of nanobots, or have the bots enter their body through an open cut that they make, and the enemy’s body is yours: no violence needed.
We live in a terrifying time because there’s just no way to dodge this sort of stuff unless you have the EMP tech, since a Hazmat suit is unsustainable to don long-term.
Prime horror movie material.
You trust your body. You trust your mind. But what if the enemy… is already inside you?
They’re not viruses. They’re not bacteria. They’re your own proteins… twisted. Hungry.
They hide in the folds of your brain. They wait in the silence of your cells. And when they strike… you won’t even know you’re already lost.

Congratulations. I am now terrified of my own brain.
