I had 2 of my bots in Quint missions, both with trippledipper minicons attacthed. The first one finished the misssion, was stasised, o he lost his mini. However, the 2nd bot's mini dissappeared as well mid-mission. Weird but true

Your other bot has also been stasis locked. Its a problem with the minicons that the minicon disappears when the log has been generated instead of when it becomes viewable.

PM Omega Sentinel about the problem and he will get you set back up.

This happened a few months ago when there was a problem with the database and HMW had to be restored from a back up, the last of which was from the end of February, so anyone who started after that found themselves without any team members or energon and everyone else lost all the xp, upgrades, energon and team members that they made/got since then but oddly didn't lose any weapons.

Hey, can we get a refresh on the level 0 weapons? Not for my sake, but there are literally NO basic weapons available for newbies. Or should I PM omega about this?

When I try to link with one of my minicons I am informed that it is already in use. It's always the same minicon but it can't be in use because I only link minicons to one of my characters.

If you're having trouble equipping a mini-con and it says it's already in use, I find it has something to do with Slot 9.

one issue with the new setup in HMW forums,it is nice to have the HMW forum and faction forum in the same place to see if any new topics/post have been done with the registry to the side to jump back to the game,but when you click on a forum all the unread/new posts show up as read,could this be fixed?

I'm gonna find a REALLY BIG limb to crawl out on and say it's the same glitch in the regular forums that cancel's all the unread flags when you go back.

We just probably just bought them, and the Quints haven't harvested a new crop yet.

I had a full compliment of minicons and now they are gone. I was saving them to use before V2 comes. Now they are gone and I don't even see a minicon link anywhere.

edit-I found my minicons. I still don't see a link on the HMW menu for minicons though. Even when they have been sold out it was there. What's up?

They're just not linked in the new menu system.

The new forum link on the side menu under Battle Beasts Gambling stands for Heavy War Metal. Or maybe the acronym is changing. Who knows?

Just thought I'd let you know about a possible glitch, it took me five tries before I could activate my six characters.

After I'd select my troops and hit the activate character button, the screen would go white and then when it finally came back none of my guys were activated. And like I said it took me 5 tries before they finally activated, just thought I'd let you know.
