I'd like to apologize to any and all who've been held up at any time by my slowness in posting. My life's been very busy lately, but things should be calmer now and I should be able to devote a bit more time to the RPG. So...game on! :twisted:

As to the Combaticons, you can go ahead and begin posting with them in Tagan, JaAm.

Cybertron is currently travelling through the Milky Way, yes. Although due to the transwarp engines used in larger Transformer spaceships, they can travel vast distances very quickly.

As some of you may have noticed from J Writer's post in the character swap thread, I'm taking a break from the RPG due to lack of motivation/time/energy and other various boring reasons.

If anyone needs to use my Fanmades to tie up some loose ends so as to progress, then feel free to do so

It's been great fun, and I'd like to thank everyone I've interacted with, wouldn't have been possible without you

Dave.

The canon roster list has been updated. Remember to post at least a few times a month or you will lose your characters.

Whew! I posted up a storm today.

I'd go with Thunderwing. I think he's currently in the Command Center at Deceptibase Tau.

I personally would reccommend talking with someone slightly lower down the command scale, but most of the commanders have gone to Uraya. The only other high-ranking Decepticons there are Scrapper and Bugly. Scrappers on a break and I'm pretty sure Bugly's in the command centre anyway, so heading there is your best bet.

Okies. Thanks guys!

In the cartoon alot of Transformers had tools inside their arms: Jazz's grappling hook, Ratchet's welding torch, Ironhide's glue gun. Do these characters have these abilities in game despite the lack of their description in the profiles? I can understand that using thesee might be a stretch of the imagination.

Hey all, I've been gone for a long time and was going to see about reapplying for the game but it looks like theres been a site reformat since i was here last. Are there any archives for fan characters? I seem to have lost my files with my char's stats.

It would need to be mentioned in the profile or oked by a mod first.

There was a board crash a year or two ago that wiped out everything. If your characters are in the current fanmade character profiles area then they are gone from the site all together.

Ah well thats a shame, but i figured there was no harm in checking. I guess if i want to use any of them again i'll have to try and rebuild their stats from memory

.Thanks.

I noticed Pretender tech is in use in the Tagan Heights thread. Is there any chance Bludgeon can finally become 'whole' again?

by **JaAm** » Sat Apr 19, 2008 9:03 am

Also, going off what Darth Vegeta said, can we now apply for fanmade pretenders?

by **Devastron** » Sat Apr 19, 2008 12:04 pm

No, the Pretender technology is still brand new and the Autobots do not even have it yet. Perhaps after more time has passed and the technology becomes more widespread we will allow fanmades to use it.

Me hates computers. All trouble, no fun. I hope I have finally managed to solve the mysterious crashing issues I have been suffering from but I am still not convinced of success. Regardless, I hope I will be able to be more active once I'm through with this.

How many units are in a typical Sweep drone squadron? I assume its 5 or so.

by **JaAm** » Tue Apr 22, 2008 3:38 pm

I always assumed it was 3. You know, the (in)famous decepticon triangle formation.

well until a mod says otherwise, it seems like Sweeps are not directly intending to replace seekers so they could have somewhat different formations to emphasize this. Also I think the movie had a 5 formation.

With my fan made (non drone) there were two grouping of 5 attacking Omega Supreme in the Polyhex thread. Well more actually as only 10 (counting my fan made) made it back. It may have been three groupings of 5 at the start. One of the mods did have a starting count on Sweep drones in a post though at the OS fight.

I have been on the hunt for a new job over the last few weeks, and it is obvious my participation in the RPG events has been woefully lacking. I am trying to decide what to do here. It has been a joy to participate in the story, but I believe I have too little time now to do proper posts. Hopefully I won't have to pull out all together. I'm thinking I may drop my Decepticon characters and Scattershot to focus on my three favorites: Windcharger, Brawn and Jazz. However, with the time I have available that may be stretching it a bit too. Any thoughts anyone?
