I've been using a time-trap base as my current layout but I am losing approximately 4 out of 5 attacks. Does anybody have any good designs for HQ 12/13? I could upload my current layout if it helps ...

The one you gave me a while ago for hq level 11-12 is still working for me, if that helps.

As many of you may know, Transformers: Earth Wars has been running for around 9 months now, and since the game began back in June of 2016, players were limited to only one faction: Autobot, or Decepticon. Well, players will now no longer be limited to just one faction!

Earth Wars has published its most recent update today that allows players for the first time to play as either Autobot or Decepticon! This means that all you good little Autobots may now play a bit to your darker tyrannical side, while the nasty cons can play a bit with their heroic side. The game allows players to unlock 35 characters from the opposite faction, though you cannot group bots and cons on the same team, and you can still only be in an alliance based on your original faction.

Read up on the update below!

Transformers: Earth Wars Adds 35 New Collectible And Playable Bots

For the First Time, Players Are Free to Collect Transformers From Either Faction

Today, a brand new update comes to the real-time combat strategy mobile game Transformers: Earth Wars that allows players to unlock up to 35 new Bots. When the game launched in June 2016, players were required to join a single Transformers faction -- Autobots or Decepticons -- and assemble a powerful team to raid the opposite faction. Now, for the first time, players are not limited to choosing a side and are free to collect both Autobots and Decepticons.

With the new update, players can:
Choose to play as characters from the opposing faction from that which they first joined in PVP battles
Increase their team power and battle with up to 35 new characters in events
Enjoy the fact that the Transformers: Earth Wars game has the most playable characters in the franchise!

Transformers: Earth Wars is published by Backflip Studios (DragonVale, Ninjump, Paper Toss) and developed by Space Ape Games (Rival Kingdoms, Samurai Siege). The app brings the excitement of the battle between Autobots and Decepticons to mobile devices with fast-paced gameplay and beautiful 3D animation, allowing the characters to attack, battle, and change right before a player’s eyes. Using authentic storytellers and voice actors from the original franchise, Transformers: Earth Wars enables players to interact with other Transformers fans, as well as millions of people around the world who enjoy real-time combat strategy games.

Transformers: Earth Wars is free and available to download today for iOS and Android mobile devices. The new update is accessible to players who have hit Level 8 or above. For more information, visit www.TransformersEarthWars.com.

Space Apes cannot even get their own press releases right! There are 41 different 4* characters. Actually, it's 120 if you include 2* through 5* versions. They don't allow 1* opposing factions because you can't use free crystals to unlock opposing factions.

Space ape does do alot of things without thinking...

Due to an issue in our last leaderboard event, we have made some minor changes to the leaderboard prize rewarding. Click here to visit our wiki and learn more.

 

New Characters

When your bots are becoming battle-worn, you can rely on Medics to step in and keep them on their feet.  Prepare to make some room in your teams for new bots First Aidand Reflector.



First Aid (Medic)
Highly empathic, First Aid really feels for those he treats, and so works tirelessly to repair the seemingly endless damage caused by war.  That laudable character trait makes First Aid slightly reticent in battle, but he knows that in the end if the Autobots don't fight - and win - the hurting will never stop for anyone, and so he struggles on.



Deploy Medibots - Deploy two Medibots, each with an ability to shield friendly bots blocking 40/45% of incoming damage.

 



Reflector (Medic)Three bots (Viewfinder, Spyglass and Spectro) in one, Reflector exists to observe, record and document - in other words, spy on people.  He (they) love to find fault in others, and learn their weaknesses, so that he (they) can later exploit that shortcoming.
That said, in a crunch, six hands are better than one.



Reflector Team Up! - Summon Spectro and Spyglass, each with an ability to shield friendly bots blocking 40/45% of incoming damage.

 

Balancing Changes



We are always making adjustments in-game to ensure fairness and balance across all players. Please see the latest changes below which are coming your way on Thursday March 23rd.
 

• Incendiary Barrage (Swindle/Sunstreaker) now displays approximate damage instead of duration (stats unchanged).
• Whirlwind (Octopunch/Seaspray) cost reduced from 5 to 4.
• Earth Shatter (Optimus Maximus/Bruticus) - Cast range increased by 1. Damage to walls increased by 16%.
• Bruticus - Frantic Rage ability range corrected (was not matching Optimus Maximus).

Most of the top players don't use medics anymore, so in that light, this is a really terrible leaderboard. But at least it's better than than the last one!

New Characters
Over the next few weeks we’ll be giving our VIP players an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at our new Beast Wars characters.




Though young and untested, Optimus Primal soon rose to the challenge of leadership.

More down-to-Cybertron than his legendary namesake, and prone to stuffy speeches, Primal is nevertheless committed to the Maximal codes of honor and duty and is brave and selfless in battle.

But he is not above finding unorthodox solutions to problems - in his own words, "sometimes, crazy works".

 




Though fierce and ruthless like his namesake, and determined to further the Predacon cause whatever the cost, Megatron's true art lies in manipulation. 

Why do yourself what others can do for you, is Megatron's credo. 

Cunning, patient, Megatron orchestrates his vast schemes with the precision of a virtuoso. But his twisted sense of humor and overdeveloped sense of drama make him a little too fond of his own cleverness.

 

Next week our art team will give you an insight into the creation of the new bots and their transformations.



What's New



Our latest update rolls out next week to all players and includes multiple bug fixes and alliance improvements!
 

• Beast Wars: A new series of characters and events, featuring story from TV show writer Simon Furman.
• Alliance Improvements: Battle Replay channel and an additional Officer.
• Bug Fixes:
  There is now feedback on the ability bar to indicate when your bot is stunned during battle.
  • ‘Autobot Outpost’ text appeared for Decepticon players in some cases.
  • Further reductions in overall memory usage to improve game stability on iPhone 6, iPhone 6+, iPad Air and iPad Mini 2 devices.
  • Battle Replay results appeared the opposite way for other members of the alliance. Battle replays posted for a defence win appeared as an attack defeat when viewed by other players.
  • Combiner timer no longer displayed in squad select for alternate faction.
  • Camera movement is now correctly restored after a Combiner’s death.
  • Bot behaviour improvements during battles.
  • Players will no longer see the alliance war failed message when they have battle attempts remaining.
  • All players can now see the Headquarters level 15 unlocked achievement.

New Characters
Influenced by our love for the original 1990s Beast Wars show, we stepped up to the challenge of rendering the classic characters Optimus Primal and Megatron with modern technology to incorporate them into the game.

 



 



 


We looked to the Beast Wars toys as reference, which provided us with a foundation when rendering the new characters. With Beast Wars Megatron we made minimal changes, however we faced some difficulties with Optimus Primal.

In his toy form we felt that Optimus Primal looked a little unsettling, so we redesigned him with a more mechanical face plate. The real challenge when creating him was his hair, which had a chance to look unusual in 3D.


 



 



 

Whilst creating these new characters initially proved a challenge for the art team, we managed to succeed. This gave us the opportunity to continue the story from where series 3 of the 1990s Beast Wars show left off, assisted by the writing skills of TV show finale writer Simon Furman.

Learn about Optimus Primal and Megatron’s Battle Orders ability as game designer Adam gives you an exclusive first look next week!

New Characters



Last week we took a peek at the artistic side of Optimus Primal & Beast Wars Megatron. This time, we’ll be taking a deep dive into gameplay territory!

Gameplay Design
The introduction of Beast Wars characters into the game is a big milestone for us. And we’ve taken the importance of these bots as an opportunity to try some new gameplay mechanics.

Design Goals & Role
Optimus Primal and Megatron are feral forces of destruction that lead by example. We’ve classified them both as Special, and while their models and animations differ widely, they share in-game stats and make use of the same new Special Ability. They are sturdy and dangerous frontline brawlers, faster, more aggressive versions of their Generations equivalents.

Gameplay Stats
Gameplay stats of Optimus Primal and Megatron place them close to another ‘unstoppable force of nature’ - Grimlock. They have same movement speed of 3, slightly lower damage but more health.

Attacks & Weaponry
Our new Maximal & Predacon friends are adept at smashing or biting anything they come across. But as so often with Transformers characters, there’s more than meets the eye...

Both characters have access to a powerful long range attack (shoulder cannons for Primal, laser breath for Megatron). It has a 15 second cooldown and can be fired over enemy walls as far as 11 units from the target (almost as far as the range of the Beam Laser defense).

Anything that survives the laser blast is in for a surprise... Primal and Megatron are the first characters to use our new “move & attack” battle behaviour, and they use it well! The bots can use a gap-closing jump attack, which allows them to traverse above walls and deal damage in a large area. This attack is available every 10 seconds on targets that are between 10 and 8 units away. Primal and Megatron make for one explosive entrance!

Secret Tip: You can use Inspiring Charge on a distant target to force these new bots to jump at it. Just ensure the 10 second cooldown has passed and the target is far enough to jump at. Using Battle Orders can also help get the bot jumping between defenses.

Special Ability


Battle Orders - Target their defenses! Friendly bots are given a health shield and prioritize all defenses for 15 seconds.

Battle Orders is a leadership ability that helps your bots pick the most dangerous targets first, and have the health to do so! The shield amount increases with bot’s damage and ability level.

A variation of this ability was voted by the community as one of their favourites. We’ve redesigned it to make it a bit more unique and changed the buffing effect from “health restoration” to a more useful (and unique) bonus health. This way, even if your bots are fresh, they get the extra health and are harder to shoot down.



It’s time to bring these bots through the Space Bridge and take them into battle! Check back next week for details on how to unlock our new Beast Wars characters.



Balancing Changes



13-April-2017 - 1.39.2

• Equalized Tantrum's health and damage stats with Hot Spot.
• Healing Grenade (Ratchet/Hook) - Increased health restoration by 50%. Ability level scaling increased by 20% (from 4 to 5%).

Bots across a single class can differ in stats quite widely. Hot Spot and Tantrum have different stat partners (and were released at different times), but they ended up sharing the same Reflective Shield ability and in this case, have same use case that’s directly relatable. So based on community feedback, we've removed the health/damage difference between these two bots, opting for Hot Spot as the base.


As for Healing Grenade, we want the ability to be more meaningful and have impact on higher bot levels and on with high health bots. We hope you like the change!

It seems Transformers: Earth Wars - following their announcement of a mini-comic penned by none other than Simon Furman to go along with the new units Optimus Primal and Beast Wars Megatron - has sent three pages to three fansites, including Seibertron.com. The other two pages are part of an Easter Egg Hunt of sorts, but there is more...

...we're holding a little contest! Simply post your favourite moment of Megatron or Optimus Primal from Beast Wars in the forums below this news post before Friday April 21st to win the original artwork for Page 3! If you win (we'll select by random), we'll contact you through PMs and SpaceApe will send the artwork directly to you. So have a look at the pages, enter our contest and tell us what you think in the forums!

Favorite moment of Megatron? When he finally appears to win by breaking into the ark, powering up his gun, and shooting the original Optimus Prime's head off.

That was bold story telling and had me seriously wondering what the hell was going to happen next.

yes, 'bought them here' is exactly how you get thme there.

Yes...

My favorite scene involving Optimus Primal or Megatron from the Beast Wars cartoon would have had to have been when it was revealed that the entire reason the Beast Wars happened in the first place was because of a sinister plot set up by the original Megatron that the BW Megatron took accomplish. That realization of the story blew me away!

I'm not really into winning any art from this, so I'll just leave a comment about this comic itself:

I could see this relating to the Power of the Primes vote that elected Optimus Primal as the next Prime.

To pick just one moment from the perfection known as Beast Wars is near impossible.....there is just so many priceless moments to choose from.
Perhaps when Megatron emerges from the lava to revel his new dragon mode.....YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

Oh enjoyable mini-comic BTW, that last line......awesome!!!

Font looks a lot like comic sans, which I'm pretty sure it is. Thankfully, not everyone's talking in pure gibberish, although Perceptor's usage of "bought" in place of "brought" peeves me a little since I remember him being a pretty smart guy.

The artwork could also use some work. Star Saber looks like he just ate a massive burrito, and Grimlock and Razor look like they're just casually playing a game of pirates.

Odd. They were there before.

Allenspurs wrote:Scared of mentioning the competition or have you really convinced yourselfs its a "Easter egg hunt of sorts" real classy

Actually, we have no problem mentioning the other sites.

What REALLY happened is that we were contacted by SpaceApe who made the request. Their plan was for people to hunt across the various sites (Easter Egg Hunt style) to find the various pieces.

Once the request was made, things were edited accordingly.

Not exactly a great plan, nor was it clearly conveyed, but hey, they tried.

Well, that's just PRIME!

Our Beast Wars saga concludes this weekend with the arrival of two prehistoric bots...

I played the game for one whole mission before it crashed. I couldn't get to ever work again. And all I wanted was my favorite monkey bot

Assuming this is an alliance event based on the points on the prize board, even though it doesn't say anything about needing to be in an alliance to participate.

As you'll remember, SpaceApe Games sent us one of three pages from their Beast Wars mini-comic to accompany their latest releases for the Transformers: Earth Wars mobile game - now, we have been sent the other two pages again, from fellow fansites TFW2005 and AllSpark, to celebrate the end of the 'egg hunt'!

Transformers: Earth Wars Unleashes Prehistoric Power in New Beast Wars Saga Update As New Playable Bots Arrive to Game, Including Optimus Primal and Megatron T-Rex

Real-time combat strategy mobile game Transformers: Earth Wars rolled out its Beast Wars update earlier this month featuring a series of new characters and events, and today marks the official arrival of Optimus Primal and Megatron T-Rex as playable characters. The Beast Wars story centers around Grimlock, who decides to bring Transformers back from the future. Grimlock gets it wrong and brings characters from the past -- Beast Wars characters! Players who are HQ Level 4 and up can unlock this story through weekly events, and by leveling up their characters.

Transformers: Earth Wars is free and available to download today for iOS and Android mobile devices. The new Beast Wars update is accessible to players who have hit HQ Level 4 and above. For more information, visit TransformersEarthWars.com.



Dinobot Grimlock



A rampaging force of nature, Grimlock is the most feared and powerful of the Dinobots, as irascible and savage as the T-Rex his beast mode is modelled on. Combat is in Grimlock's spark, and periods in between battles are simply periods of great frustration and seething resentment. Any display of weakness is worthy only of contempt in Grimlock's optics, but he's not as dumb as he likes people to think, and his courage on the battlefield is the stuff of legend.


Dinobot Slug



Considering he's one of the good 'bots, Slug is as nasty and mean-spirited as they come, and resents everyone from Optimus Prime down. The actual process it takes to build up a fiery (3,000 degrees centigrade plus) blast and reduce an enemy to molten slag is hardly energy-efficient, but he doesn't care. It's firepower well spent in his book. As he often says, "I have no need for friends, even less for enemies."


Dinobot Slog



Despite his plodding, lumbering gait and bulldozer-like approach to anything in his way, Slog is a gentle and even shy 'bot at heart. But conscious of his bellicose fellow Dinobots, and wary of their scorn, he keeps his sensitive side hidden. Slog's seismic footfalls have been known to cause inadvertent landslides, which sometimes bury Slog and anyone nearby, making others dismiss him as clumsy and accident prone.


Dinobot Snarl



Surly and uncommunicative, a loner by nature, Snarl is about as far from a team player as you can get. But in a group comprised of misfits and malcontents, he somehow fits right in. And though he follows orders (grudgingly), what keeps him in line is the promise of mortal combat — and lashings of it. Only the thrill of battle can truly elevate Snarl's spirits and being a Dinobot provides everything his heart desires.


Dinobot Snarl



In army lingo, Snarl is a grunt. Not just because he's infantry, specializing in desert warfare, obediently if grudgingly following the orders of his commanding officer, but because he's a 'bot of few words and fewer opinions, and the most you can get out of him is the odd grunt. A loner by nature, uncommunicative and surly, Snarl only comes to life in the heat of battle, alongside his fellow Dinobots."

Why is Swoop also Snarl? That'd be confusing.

"Snarl! Go!"
"Me Snarl?"
"Or me Snarl?"

And Swoop/SnarlII's bio leaves out his amiability, which I feel is the character's defining trait. In a group of brutish heavy hitters, he's the closest one to downright friendly.

Those... actually appear to be two legitimate Snarl Bios. Huh.

Additionally, the three Dinobot name changes brought about recently actually kind of make some sense:
Slug, as in slow, or a large shotgun round. Crude and powerful. (Admittedly, Slag works better here)
Slog, as in a powerful hit (What significance did Sludge have, anyways?)
Strafe is much more in line with the tone of the other names than Swoop was (Although Swoop is different from the other Dinobots, being friendly and not-a-dinosaur. Also, Strafe is a Technobot.)
