Has there ever been a listing of ranks? As I have followed the fiction over the years I never paid attention to it more than giving it cursory attention, but now I am curious.
I only have a few vague memories:
• High Council
• Commander
• Elite Guard
• Starscream is the leader of the seekers
• Animated:
o Magnus
o Prime
• WFC – classes:
o Scout
o Scientist
o Soldier
o Leader
But classes aren’t rank, they are more size or job, even though one is called “leader."
The G1 Comic “Universe” and DW MTMTE had “function," but function is more like your job. The WFC classes are sort of like jobs. Leader class really just means big.
I know IDW is exploring social class and all of the social philosophies. While I wouldn’t mind this being mentioned, I am most interested in it from a military, tribal, or political ranking system perspective.
Any help and info would be interesting and appreciated, thanks.
