New Characters
Two formidable combatants; Cheetor and Blackarachnia join Transformers: Earth Wars this weekend!
Full of youthful overconfidence, the devil-may-care Cheetor lives life to the full and at high velocity.
However, that reckless, full throttle attitude often gets him into deep trouble, sometimes more than he can handle solo (not that he'd ever admit it).
It's fair to say that Cheetor's overbearing enthusiasm sometimes grates on the nerves of his Maximal teammates. Nevertheless, they appreciate his speed and agility in battle.
Smart, alluring and dangerous, Blackarachnia has eight legs and knows how to use them.
She is the epitome of the femme fatale and, while she wears the insignia of a Predacon, has no great regard for Megatron's leadership and always looks out for number one first and foremost.
Forever planning and plotting, weaving devious web-like strategies to trap the unwary, Blackarachnia makes sure she always comes out on top.
Bestial Fury - For 15 seconds, use melee attacks dealing damage. Destroy buildings to increase your attack and movement speeds by 25% - the buff lasts 90 seconds and can stack 5 times.

I dunno. Maybe the toy version looks better (I haven't seen it combined) but that thing up there is a cluttered, badly proportioned, overly-colourful mass of crap. Dunno why the Dinobots have gotta combine anyways. It's ok to have a team of five bots who don't turn into giant body parts... The Dinobots were totally ok with not being combiners for years. And instead of really awesome new toys of those guys we get CW-type crud that look worse and cheaper than the original toys and have only the addition of extra articulation as a true benefit.

Optimus Prime and Megatron believe the tides of battle can be turned with their Triple Changers, however, there is something else that will make the Earth Wars even more devastating.
Unknown Power
The tide of war is at bay...
After last week’s showdown of epic proportions, the battle for the Enigma of Combination has come to an inconclusive end.
With dozens of Autobots and Decepticons damaged and evacuated, it’s time to seek alternative solutions...
While Optimus Prime and Megatron make plans for a way to unleash their Triple Changers, a few bots on both sides believe the edge they seek comes from a different place altogether...

Nebulan technology could be the key to the next stage of the Earth Wars.
Megatron and Optimus Prime make a decision but will curiosity in this technology be too much to ignore for some?
Countdown to Nebulos
The Taste of Power
Megatron rarely takes notes from Optimus Prime's school of leadership. But this time around, he's unknowingly preaching from the same handbook.
The order is simple - Nebulan technology is a distraction, too risky to pursue!
But Perceptor's scientific curiosity and Shockwave's ambition surely mean a quest to uncover the secrets of Nebulan technology will soon commence...

Hey there!
I hope this email finds you in great shape.
As you probably know by now, we launched the Power Cores feature this Tuesday! This new feature will add another layer to Transformers: Earth Wars gameplay, changing the metagame and offering new strategic options to every player.
To announce Power Cores, we created a new video series where Chris (Product Owner) and Adam (Game Designer) chat about how these items will impact the game. Three different videos were published on our YouTube channel and Facebook page:
'What are Power Cores?'
'Power Cores on Bots'
'Power Cores on Defenses'
On top of that, Deb, Adam and Dan answered a lot of questions about Power Cores and more on our weekly stream, called ‘Unknown Power’. You can watch the full session here:
The new Power Cores campaign, written by the legendary Simon Furman, will showcase of Autobots and Decepticon in their quest to discover a new technology from the distant planet of Nebulos. Once finished, you will get the Matrix of Leadership Power Core for Optimus Prime, or the Crown Power Core for Starscream!
Click [ur=http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/clk?id=240454840&iu=/1006790/Text_Linkl]here[/url] to try Power Cores and equip the heroic Optimus Prime with the Matrix of Leadership, or the deceiving Starscream with his Crown!

Under Investigation
Here are some of the issues reported that we've been investigating:
- Attack core show an increase of healing dps stats in Healer profiles.
- This issue will be fixed in the next client release.
- Wallbuster core showed an increased of dps stats in troop’s profiles.
- This was a display issue and Wallbuster just affects damage done on walls. This will be fixed in the next client release.
- Screen touch becomes unresponsive on android devices.
- The majority of users have indicated that the issue was resolved by disabling third party programs which caused a dimming of the device or the blocking of blue light after certain times. We are still investigating this issue. In the meantime make sure that you have disabled Samsung game tools and any other 3rd party software that may be interacting with your devices controls.
