Machine Soldier can special summon Machina Fortress, as it is a
Machina monster. Machina Fortress has an inbuilt special summon
method, but this is a 'you can' and not a 'can only' thing, it can
be special summoned by other effects if you wish.
Since Machina Soldier is a machine, you are also allowed to use
it to pay towards Machina Fortress's own special summon cost.
