The DINOBOTS have entered the battlefield! Today DeNA announced Dinobot Destruction, a new in-game event that brings the original G1 DINOBOTS to TRANSFORMERS: BATTLE TACTICS.

An exciting turn-based strategy game for iOS and Android, TRANSFORMERS: BATTLE TACTICS lets players collect and assemble teams of iconic AUTOBOTS and DECEPTICONS to battle in strategic combat experiences with other fans in real-time.

Running from June 4 through June 10, players will collect and fight alongside Slug, Snarl, and Slog in the Dinobot Destruction event. As they rise through the ranks, players have the chance to win classic TRANSFORMERS characters, Grimlock and Swoop.

TRANSFORMERS: BATTLE TACTICS is a turn-based tactical mobile game inspired by the all new fan favorite COMBINER WARS comic story and the expansive 30-year history of the TRANSFORMERS GENERATIONS universe. Players collect and assemble epic teams, made up of AUTOBOTS and DECEPTICONS who fight side by side in a unique campaign mode and intense player vs player (PvP) mode to engage with gamers and TRANSFORMERS fans from around the world.

Also, the Spinister campaign is now live, if anybody didn't notice. It brought some changes from the last time: Easy is now only one battle instead of 3, Medium is 2 instead of 4, and Hard is 3 instead of 5. Also, a lot of characters have had their stats adjusted in what I assume is an attempt to rebalance the game. Lastly, the home screen has changed, so that's neat.

Important to ote: the Dinobots are in their original G1 bodies, and not either a new chassis, or the AOE body, or in Grimlock's case, his RID15 form

So no new spoilers. :(

I understand them changing Slag's name, since 'slag' has evolved into a foul word in some parts of the world. But why change Sludge to Slog?

A month ago he would have been a godsend to me. Now I have an all Super Rare team and I'll pick up Spinister, an Elite Rare, in a few weeks from the daily campaigns. Poor Slog is a measly Rare who can't keep up with my team of event reward bots. The power creep is strong in this game.

I actually laughed at that. Thank you.

Maybe they lost the "Sludge" name.

I wonder if there's a chance of a Generations Armada Megatron repaint into Galvatron. This might be just a thing for the game if there are 6 different ones to unlock, but I wouldn't be too surprised at a repaint.

V1 is based on the Asian 3-pack release from last year, V2 is the Universe deco.

Maybe for an exclusive somewhere but I can't see them doing it for mass retail seeing as how much Armada Megaron has been shelfwarming.

And this game uses the design of the original 2003 toy instead of the CW Leader toy.

Funnily enough at my local Wal-Mart I saw 2 G1 Megs and no Armada Megs a few days ago. They're definitely selling, just not at an equal rate.

So I stopped playing this about a month after it came out...I got sick and tired of getting stressed out every time the game matched me with someone who had bought all their characters because we has a similar pvp score. Is that still going on?
