HMW: The Campaign for Cybertron
A new way to fight the Heavy Metal War
Special Event: The Battle of the Legends!
15 years and going strong!
Well, here it is, the moment you have all been waiting for...
I can make gin disappear. What’s your superpower?
Happy Birthday Heavy Metal War!!Welcome HMWarriors, to another huge battle here on Seibertron.com!
Zombi Cheerleader here again and it's time to tell you what the hell is going on...
For fifteen years HMW has raged across Cybertron (and its host, Seibertron.com)
This war has had its ups and downs, it’s highs and its lows, its champions and its losers, and has had a whole load of programmers come and go along the way, but it is still raging on and our profits are still rolling in.
Here at WarPorn Industries, we have gone to great lengths over much of this time to bring you entertainment and adventure wherever we can. This began back when organised the first ever alt hunt, and now our partnership with Sustain and her Amalgamated Pretence has led all us the way to fighting a Campaign across Cybertron, where we have fought sharkticons, battled Darth Vader, captured enemy commanders and scavenged for new weapons.
Unfortunately though, this campaign has not been going so well for the Autobots, with the Decepticons now controlling half of Cybertron.
Wait, this is NOT good! WarPorn are in the war profiteering industry, it’s bad for us if the Autobots are actually defeated!
So to balance things, here is the deal:
We are going to WAR.
None of this hunting nonsense.
No targets to achieve or stats for you to have to track.
Just an all out out battle in selected missions.
The rules of this war are so simple, even a Sharkticon could understand them...The War Starts TODAY! 6PM (GMT+1) and runs for a week.
See?
- All levels count.
- ONLY missions ending with the number FIVE or ZERO will count.
- These missions must have at least 3 warriors from BOTH factions to count towards the war (tag teams wont be counted).
- The winning team is the one that wins the most 5 or 0 missions.
- There will be awards and prizes for various things throughout, including highest kills, sportsmanship, and a special 'Senators award' for those encouraging forum participation, decided by the Senate once we are done. Keep watching the forum for details.
- (To qualify for the awards/prizes, you must post at least once in this thread so we know you are active on the forums.)
There is, as always, a twist however... We intercepted this transmission into Iacon from a *ahem* unknown source this morning.
Autobots, listen up. We need to balance the books here.
This is your chance to win a massive victory. The con’s heavily outnumber you and are better organised, but you have one thing in your favour - Cybertron above all else desires peace, therefore she will directly aid you. She has left 5 shards of the Matrix out there for you to find, each one will give your faction an advantage as the defenders of Cybertron, so fight to defend your home and she will lead you to them....
To begin with we give you this, the first of the 5, the shard of Courage.
This will lead you to the other shards, and grant you your first advantage: If a legal (5 or 0) mission does not have enough Decepticons in it, but does have the 3 required Autobots present, that mission (if a victory) will still count for the bots.
The Decepticons will gain no such advantage.
This advantage may not last long, so make the best of it whilst you can or just hope you can find the next one quickly...
This war will be organised by a team of commanders including my boss, Psychout, and our fellow Senate members; Burn, Wingz and Sustain, and Redimus, who is here on work experience
I'll be bringing you updates as the tourney rolls on, but until then, I'll leave you in the capable hands of Sustain...
Goodnight!!!
There ya go. Follow this post for details, scores and updates.

Don't know how well I'll help as I generally just throw them in as long as I'm not heavily outnumbered.
Is it possible that the cons can get some of these perks for doing well? I mean I didn't realise there was a massive gap between active not and con players.

Now go get with the killing!!
Remember... missions ending in 5 or 0 are the ones that matter!

The Capital City of Iacon was bustling. While very few were there, those that were kept busy working and running things. Several teams had been hitting up some of the locals to help bring back the Defense to the area. Slowly … the Autobot numbers grew. Now was the time to strike. Take a sector while the Decepticons were blissfully ignorant and enjoying their resent victories.
“Autobots!” Colossus Prime called as the room quieted around him. “We need to take this war to the Decepticons. We’ve been trying to be tactical about it and we’ve had some of our best imprisoned! Now is the time to reach down into your sparks and take that energy to battle.” His hand rested over where his spark chamber was locked away in his chest. Slowly he made a fist. “We can do this. Each one of you know that no matter how bleak it seems the battle is not lost until you give up.”
Optimus Prime nodded. “Indeed. It is not over.” The Autobot leader stood at his full height.
Jazz grinned. “A full out war it’s about damned time.”
“A full out flood of Autobots and we shall retake Cybertron by force!” Prowl nods.
Kaon only looked quiet. Within several teams of Decepticons were working tirelessly to get things back in working.. or war order. Several stations had been coved in what one could only describe as a desert’s worth of dust. Most of the monitors including the main screen were broken. It has been several cycles where Soundwave toiled over the Communications station before that managed to blink to life. Most of the commanders stood at one council or another working on something, their charges around the Capital building all working, and if they had no talent for rebuilding, they were cleaning.
“I trusted you with Cybertron and this is what I comeback to?” Megatron paced from one side of the Command room to the other. “We had Cybertron. It was ours. And now… “ His hand curled into a fist as the whine of his fusion cannon could be heard.
“We can’t even get the doors open to the flight deck.” Starscream had come through the door and without any warning Megatron aimed and fired. The seeker flew back and hit the deck hard, right into stasis lock.
“Don’t look at me like that, you all knew it was coming.” Megatron growled. “Get back to work!”
“We didn’t abandon Cybertron.” Wrath said.
Megatron whirled around on him. “Oh is that right?”
“A few of us did stay, and we fought, but once the others had gone the Autobots seemed to come out of every orifice that Primus had.” Wrath said remembering it. “We sent out calls until Communications went down. Then we retreated back here to Kaon and held on.”
“Oh they are at it again!” Bun-bun’s ear twitches as he listens to the computer give him the report. “Yeah they’re coming out of every know Autobot strong hold and a few we didn’t know of. I’m guessing they think they’re going to take it because we haven’t actually claimed victory yet.”
“This just in.” Psychout grinned. “Time to take it.”
“YES of course!” Malevolence stood up. “And if they want to fight, we shall take it to them!”
Nosferatu nodded. “Vat other vay is dere?”
Like a fire, the Heavy Metal War raged over Sibertron once more! The Evil Decepticons hold several sectors while the Autobots are attempting to reclaim them in the name of peace. For near a decade the surface of Sibertron was silent, now with renewed vigor heavy guns have come out to stake their clam! Those of the Autobot side are outnumbered but fight tirelessly to save what little they have left. Right now War is in full swing.
Fire belched from a building as the few Autobots left in the street juked for position to fire on the in coming Decepticons.
The first on the scene broke in havoc quickly. Having rode in with Bitchkrieg Psychout took first aim, though he didn’t do much damage with his size. 00:10 Psychout transforms into a Heavy Rescue Vehicle and rams Tri-Fury. Tri-Fury is slightly damaged (76% power remaining).
Bitchkrieg shook her head at the attempt. “We come to fight Autobots, not tickle them.” Transforming she took aim at Starsurge and Doomtrain. “I will show you how it’s done.” Bitchkrieg transforms into a Heavy Assault Vehicle and strafes Starsurge. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Starsurge. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Starsurge is slightly damaged (78% power remaining). Doomtrain is slightly damaged (88% power remaining). Doomtrain is slightly damaged (78% power remaining). Starsurge is injured (66% power remaining). Doomtrain is injured (72% power remaining). Doomtrain is injured (63% power remaining). Doomtrain is injured (55% power remaining). “HA HA HA! Didn’t know what hit him!”
"You're right...never heard of you. Don't care to." Starsurge protested.
Bitchkrieg grinned. “Oh you are going to make this fun.” Bitchkrieg transforms into a Heavy Assault Vehicle and strafes Starsurge. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Starsurge. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Starsurge is slightly damaged (78% power remaining). Doomtrain is slightly damaged (88% power remaining). Doomtrain is slightly damaged (78% power remaining). Starsurge is injured (66% power remaining). Doomtrain is injured (72% power remaining). Doomtrain is injured (63% power remaining). Doomtrain is injured (55% power remaining).. “They are making this too easy.” Bitchkrieg laughed.
Getting up Doomtrain spat some energon out of his mouth. Doomtrain transforms into a Heavy Vehicle and rams Bitchkrieg. Bitchkrieg is injured (72% power remaining).
“If you keep that up, they’re going to take us.” Psychout warned. Psychout transforms into a Heavy Rescue Vehicle and repairs Bitchkrieg. Bitchkrieg has been fully repaired!
“Concentrate on the big one!” Malevolence called. Malevolence hits Tri-Fury with a Gatling Cannon. Tri-Fury is slightly damaged (87% power remaining).
“You should really learn to dodge..." Starsurge transforms into a Helpful Air Animal and repairs Tri-Fury.
“Can’t you see I’m trying.” Psychout punches Tri-Fury. Tri-Fury is slightly damaged (83% power remaining).
“Like this!” Bitchkrieg transformed again Bitchkrieg transforms into a Heavy Assault Vehicle and strafes Starsurge. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Starsurge. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Doomtrain. Bitchkrieg strafes Starsurge. Starsurge is injured (55% power remaining). Doomtrain is severely injured (12% power remaining). Starsurge is damaged (46% power remaining). Doomtrain is severely damaged (7% power remaining). Doomtrain has gone into stasis lock! Starsurge is damaged (34% power remaining). “HA! One down!”
Distracted by Doomtrain going down Starsurge curses himself for missing. Starsurge misses Psychout with a XS2 Ionised Null-Ray. “This isn’t looking good. We need more back up.”
“I’m not going to give you time to call your little friends.” Bitchkrieg answered. Bitchkrieg transforms into a Heavy Assault Vehicle and strafes Starsurge. Bitchkrieg strafes Tri-Fury. Bitchkrieg strafes Tri-Fury. Bitchkrieg strafes Tri-Fury. Bitchkrieg strafes Tri-Fury. Starsurge has gone into stasis lock! Tri-Fury is injured (74% power remaining). Tri-Fury is injured (65% power remaining). Tri-Fury is injured (56% power remaining). Tri-Fury is damaged (48% power remaining). She turned to see her Decepticon allies. As one after another they began to chip away at the now lonesome Autobot. Psychout transforms into a Heavy Rescue Vehicle and rams Tri-Fury. Tri-Fury is severely injured (20% power remaining). Malevolence hits Tri-Fury with a Gatling Cannon. Tri-Fury is severely injured (17% power remaining). Malevolence transforms into a Airplane and strafes Tri-Fury. Tri-Fury is severely damaged (8% power remaining).
Psychout transforms into a Heavy Rescue Vehicle and repairs Malevolence. Malevolence has been fully repaired! “Just in case.”
“Just in case of what?” Bitchkrieg ask as a cannon went off.
Tri-Fury hits Psychout with a Fusion Cannon. Psychout is slightly damaged (81% power remaining). “That hurt.” Psychout answered.
Bitchkrieg transforms into a Heavy Assault Vehicle and strafes Tri-Fury. Tri-Fury has gone into stasis lock! “We’ll get you repaired at some point. This war isn’t over.”
And with First blood, Decepticons come out swinging.
Redimus is in the lead with kills at 7, but all is not lost. There is more than one prize for kills to be won.

One of several prizes for kills a custom art of your personal HMW character Like my dear Eclipse Velocity here:
Get into the missions ending in Zero or Five and make those kills!
