You can pretty much create your own. Though if you want to know what's currently going on, the Campaign for Cybertron does have story in it. Many choose to write their own stories, and then happen into the HMW. Think out of the box.
Ok ty. Most of mine are based on characters I have in the RPG part of Seibertron forums. A few are just fun little nicknames for board friends of mine, lol.
There a good crossover between RPG and HMW characters/players here. At least 2 of my team have been in the RPG at various intervals, and Sid's
Landgrab began its life over there. It's the RPG here that taught me how to write the Campaign posts and create my bio's, my favourite of which is still
Chompy, based on
this tournament.
As for canon for the game? It doesn't have one. Feel free to make up your own, but most of the board loosely agree on a few constants:
0) The
Campaign for Cybertron is a fun narrative, but it
isn't a definitive canon for everybody, nor is it intended to be.
1) HMW is pretty much G1 with optional extras.
2) The Beast-era transformers arose, died off, and whats left have now integrated into the main 2 factions. The Maximals and Predacons fight alongside/against us as they see fit, but tend to moan about it occasionally (not mentioning any names.
)
