About The Transformers Function

Postby Bartmanhomer » Fri Oct 26, 2007 8:18 am

What is the purpose of having a function anyway? (e.g. Function: Warrior, Leader and etc.)

It's just a description of their role in the Autobot military. Just like we have General, Lieutenant, Corporal, etc.

Yeah. Although not so much as GP said; that's ranks, which denote their place in the hierarchy; it doesn't actually tell you what they do.

The Function on a TFs Tech Spec tells you pretty much exactly that - it tells you what they specialise in. Although a lot of the time any TF can be assigned to pretty much any role, most of them have something that they're particularly good at, or at least that they're usually assigned to. So while, for instance, Laserbeak is often sent off on spying missions, or even (reluctantly) as forward scout, the thing he's really good at is interrogation.
