I like the gladiator background. Makes sense for him to be a living wrecking ball then.

If Chabal's doing Megatron, I want at least some of his WFC characterization there.

Yes.

Would this be before he hijacks that station, or is it one of those weird things?

Most liekly after; recall that Cybertron is not a pleasant place to be right now.

Still, I don't see why we can't have him enact a similar raid...

As an introduction to the characters, maybe?

Ah! ''Transformers Animated has just given me an excellent idea!

The first episode of that show began with Optimus Prime watching a historical document about the Great War, right? Well, how about we do something similar—the Autobot players are taking part in a simulation based on one of Megatron's raids to evaluate their skills on the battlefield, along with how well they can cooperate as a unit.

Just start it off with a massive aerial assault and I'll be having truckloads of fun right outta the gate.

Very well, then... shall I have the Decepticons raid one of these, where the Autobot players happen to be stationed at the time?  *

Actually, on second thought, make that a simulation from the Decepticons perspective.

Perhaps both sides are undergoing simulations of the same battle, and it's not until the fight is over that it's revealed as such.

Alrighty, then! For the benefit of the player who has little experience, I suggest we take a look at this to get an idea of what the fighting will be like.

Within the next two days. Based on my university schedule, it would be best if we hold off until Thursday morning; I, unfortunately, need to study for a mid-term taking place in tomorrow's night class.

Beyond that, however, I should be good; the only other classes I have are on Fridays and Saturdays, so barring exceptional circumstances, I'll be available every other day of the week and most of subsequent Wednesdays.

Damn.

After all that drama over in IJBM, I thought I'd wind up banned and forced out of this.

I just want to say, I'm sorry, and I hope it never happens again. At least I exposed the potential of the system for very bad abuses.

Well, it proves your conviction, at least. Was a little worried myself, actually.

No doubt the True Holy Guardians of Transformers Canon will despise me for this this, but I couldn't tell the Decepticons apart in that video. Does Megatron transform into a tank as well, or was that a different one?

WFC Megatron? Yeah. Complete with way oversized cannon.

At some point, I'd like to see an Autobot get captured... then get the 'we're not so bad!' treatment. Complete with Bad Guy Bar and spiked coolant.

Yeah, Megs turns into a tank as well. The one the player was using—Brawl, if you're interested—turns into a tank which is taller, but has two relatively small barrels in comparison to Megatron.

Regardless, one easy way to tell Megatron apart from his peers—and I use that term loosely—is the presence of the fusion cannon on his right arm; most Megatrons have such a gun, as does the upgraded form of Galvatron.

Tomorrow indeed; I would have started it today, but I have an important test tonight which I'm presently studying for.

Don't worry, though; once I'm awake tomorrow, the game shall begin!

Okay, possible ladies and certain gentlemen, everyone confirmed on the plan tomorrow?
