Nah his stuff is too spread out - and having harvesters/storage on the sides like that is just asking for a Prime rush.

Plus even if she manages to hold off the attack, they're probably still going to pillage.

Burn, you still in Evil Empire? How's it going over there?

Yep

How's it going over there?

We bounce back and forth between the top two war leagues. Most of us are on the cusp of being able to handle HQ14's, just need a little bit more power.

We range around the 40's in events. I think what hurt us last weekend was a few of us were busy.

But eh, they're a good bunch, aren't hardcore, as long as I meet my quota of dead Autobots they leave me to my own devices.

You should prooooobably balance out your walls, on top of what the other people said.

Speaking of walls, 24 level 10 walls! For once, NOT the last thing to be upgraded, because saving for bot upgrades gives you a lot of spare alloy.

Fellow Seibertronian and Transformers Earth Wars player megatronus has pointed us in the direction of a gameplay video for the mobile game, showing a BIG update (probably to be found in the next newsletter, too!): the Combiners are in, and Devastator takes centre stage! Check out the embedded clip below - originally sourced from Wongatron from MAS- and discuss away in the Energon Pub.

Some leaked screenshots have indicated that combiner tech is a campaign event like that which carries you through the early game, rather than a weekend event. Seems there's no event this weekend.

Combiners

The war on Earth is about to reach new heights! The Enigma of Combination has been located and with it the means to unleash the power of the Combiners: SUPERION & DEVASTATOR.

After months of hard work by our team, we’re finally ready to unleash our biggest feature yet. Combiners will launch in an epic new campaign titled Combiner Wars!

Players will get their first chance to battle with Superion or Devastator on the battlefield during the campaign!

Complete the campaign to unlock the Combiner Lab. Enter the Combiner Lab to combine, upgrade and rank up your Combiners!

Combine Superion or Devastator using your 3 Star Aerialbots or Constructicons in the Combiner Lab. Upgrade your Combiner’s health and damage using Superion or Devastator Spark obtained from duplicate Aerialbots or Constructicons in the Space Bridge.

Collect all 4 Star Aerialbots or Constructicons to rank up Superion or Devastator in the Combiner Lab. Ranking up a Combiner unlocks a new attack and makes them even more deadly on the battlefield.

Unlocking the Combiner Lab will enable you to construct the Ore-13 Harvester and Ore-13 Storage. Ore-13 is used to activate Superion or Devastator in the Combiner Lab allowing you to take them into battles against rival players!

Combiners are equipped with up to three deadly attacks capable of inflicting unimaginable damage to their opponents.

Rush And Smash - Rush into combat smashing walls along the way. Deals heavy damage to the final target.

Rocket Swarm - Fire a swarm of rockets dealing damage over a large area.

Death Ray - Fire a powerful beam that deals massive damage to a single target. Cannot be used on the HQ.

Prepare yourself for the ultimate battle as Combiners launch in Transformers: Earth Wars next week! Look out for upcoming events to support the release of Combiners.

Balancing Update

Tomorrow we'll be releasing a balancing update, including improvements for Blaster, Soundwave, Huffer and Gnaw[/b]! Check out the latest balancing changes below.

Release 1.32.1 - 03-November-2016
-Blaster and Soundwave - Health and damage increased, speed reduced slightly (this means they'll be less likely to run into trouble ahead of the pack).
-Gnaw - Should now behave properly in Bot vs Bot encounters.
-Mini Laser (Huffer) - Ability range and cast range increased, line of sight not required, cost on repeated use decreased. Mini Laser prioritizes enemy defenses and is less likely to be attacked by them.

Okay, so both sides need all 3-stars. That makes it a LOT more fair... and also means I only need Long Haul and Bonecrusher~

And this is a non-alliance event, huh? Not bad, could use a break after last time... plus, 750 3-star shards from only 1750 points. Easy peasy and that's enough to make a new crystal for me.

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Wed Nov 02, 2016 11:05 am

Really wish I didn't have my Philly trip this weekend. I need these points and awards

News Credits: 119 · by **megatronus** » Wed Nov 02, 2016 11:07 am

I've got all the 3* Constructicons, and 4/6 of the 4*s. Just need Long Haul and Bonecrusher.

I wonder how mixing and matching will work.

News Credits: 191 · by **Kurona** » Wed Nov 02, 2016 11:08 am

Anyone know how to access that loot link? I'm desperate for those crystals, especially for 3-star Bonecrusher and Long Haul...

Make sure the game is closed on whatever device you play on, click the link with said device, and it should load for you.

It won't work for me cause I've used a loot already, but it should work for you K

Didn't work at all unfortunately.
Deleted a ton of stuff on my phone just to download the app for this link, and I've gotta say I'm not very happy - not only did the link not work, but two separate times the game died and exited as soon as I tried to enter battle with my C-team. And the first time it reloaded it with a completely separate team made up of members I wasn't using in a completely different squad spot. This is pathetic.

News Credits: 12 · by **shauyaun** » Wed Nov 02, 2016 11:59 am

I've used a loot before but that was like when the game had just become available in the summer
So I can't use it ever again?! :shock:

I am having issues with the game as well. since I updated to the new combiner screen, the game keeps hesitating and kicking me off in the middle of battles and then I lose them and it pretends like I lost the battle. And it is majorly hesitating with the XP awards after the battles
