I'm not sure exactly where to put Cryptic. Maybe he arrives in a little mini-ship of his own?

Frog: The guy who designed that Devastator is also doing the original Predacons (and, hopefully, Predaking). Check out his deviantart page, it's seriously sick.

Grr. Argh.

Which Devastator, though—the one using seven Constructicons, or the one made just from Dirt Boss, Scrapper and Mixmaster?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found them; they are indeed awesome, I must say.cool

Maybe appropriate music?

I take it those Japanese Transformers series can be found online?

Another thing: Made of Axes wants to know what he should do with Blizzard, and what she should reformat as, if she reformats at all.

...And you only choose to bring this up now, when we've already had a whole helluva lot of time to discuss this beforehand?

-sigh- One of many reasons why I didn't want to have this thing set during World War II...

I just hope I didn't ruin everything.

To give you an idea of what the Transformers attacking you look like in robot mode, picture something similar to this, except more in line with a WWII-era German fighter than a MiG. The "prongs" on either side of the pictured guy's head would be atop his shoulders and be much rounder, for instance, and there wouldn't be little stabilizer wings near his hands.

You'll find out soon, I assure you.

As for Blizzard, Axes, we'll just say she hadn't managed to enter the CR Tank in order to be reformatted when the fliers attacked.

Thank you. Are there any ways to make her look like something else so she doesn't draw attention?

Jam whose transmissions? The moonbase's or the ship's?

[up][up]Hmm...good question.

Ah! I have one possible solution; are you familiar with Pretender technology, Axes?

[up] It's more of a blanket jamming effect, so both of them.

Holomatter projection?

Nah, Holomatter's only good for whipping up a pilot/driver for a Transformer's vehicle mode. Then again, said holomatter avatars can move around and interact with physical objects, but I'm sure they have limited range.

I've read the article before, but it only confused me. Would you mind explaining why all the Pretenders look like monsters, and what possible purpose that could serve?

Not all Pretenders do; Autobot Pretenders, for example, look exactly like humans.

In any event, a Pretender shell would allow Blizzard to go about masquerading as a Terran lifeform without having to alter her sheegoth altmode in any way, shape or form.

I think she'll have a human one. And that image you linked doesn't exist, apparently.

I noticed; I think the file name and address were too big for the link to stay on a single line, or something. In any event, I've fixed it so that it links to a point in the article depicting Autobot human Pretenders; they're the colourful characters on the left from where it starts.

Would Blizzard be the only one with the Pretender shell?

Considering that her beast mode is more or less unique and she's the only one without an Earth counterpart, yes.

Are Transformers wireless, or do they have to get their info via optics and wallscreens like humans?
