Courtesy of our friends from TRANSFORMERS: EARTH WARS, we now have bios and images of 5 Transformers characters from the Decepticon roster. Included in this post are Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave, Bludgeon and Razorclaw. You can click on any of the images below to pre-register for Transformers Earth Wars. The bios are written by fan-favorite Simon Furman of Transformers comic book fame.

DECEPTICON Character Bios

Megatron

In his own way, Megatron is as much an idealist as his Autobot counterpart Optimus Prime, but Megatron's zeal sprang from a committed belief that beings such as they were made to conquer and rule, and that any hint of compassion or mercy was an insult to their Primus-given power. On Cybertron, he tapped into the frustration of those like him and enflamed their revolutionary leanings. The Megatron way was and is to rule through intimidation and fear.

Starscream

Vain, arrogant, ruthless and self-serving, Starscream believes he was made to rule, not to serve, and he'll stop at nothing to advance his own cause.He'll betray anyone, ally or enemy — and that extends to his own leader, Megatron, whose tactics Starscream views as antiquated. He believes conquest is made from the ashes of his enemies, and woe betide anyone who gets in his way.

Soundwave with Laserbeak, Frenzy, Rumble, and Buzzsaw

Though Soundwave appears remote, detached and clinical, he secretly delights in the cries and screams of his enemies. It's literally music to his audio receptors. Beneath his expressionless exterior beats the generator coil of a born blackmailer and opportunist, and it's wise to be very careful what you say within audio range.Though it's said that Soundwave can hear a fly sneeze a whole City State away. If that's not enough to put fear into the spark of an Autobot, Soundwave is joined by his minions Lazerbeak, Frenzy and Rumble who can shake, break and spy on even the most diligent bot. Be afraid, be very afraid.

Bludgeon

Mysterious, stealthy and deadly, Bludgeon is a master of the ancient Cybertronian martial art of Metallikato, a combat style that borders on the mystical.The consummate assassin, Bludgeon locks on to his victim like a silent guided missile, and won't stop or deviate until he's claimed his scalp.A master swordsman, Bludgeon hides his true robot self behind an outer shell designed to strike icy dread into his victims.

Razorclaw

Razorclaw despises waste in any form, and that extends to his own energy output. So it's perhaps understandable why so many mistake his long stretches of inactivity as laziness, when in fact his optics are carefully monitoring his surroundings, waiting for the optimum moment to strike. Suddenly, Razorclaw will explode into furious, ferocious action, during which his opponents are literally torn to shreds.

'Bludgeon hides his true robot self behind an outer shell'

Does he? Still a Pretender? Cos the design is based on RotF Bluddy who is definitely not.

What the heck would the inner robot turn into since that form already turns into a tank. A smaller tank?

Cary uses a souped up Jazz.

Jazz kills everyone.

Jazz makes everyone else cannon fodder.

I tried downloading the game on my iPhone 6. It stalls while "loading" or "installing."

Haven't tried my iPad Air yet. I deleted it off my phone, hopefully there's an update soon.

Anyone else having this problem?

Cary needs to realise that Burn has a Mixmaster that can obliterate just as good as Jazz.

The real way to be like Cary is to keep your hands clean and let others do the fighting while monologuing in 3rd person.

As someone who has been playing this game for months, and has watched it evolve and improve in real time, cancellation seems extremely unlikely.

FYI: Supposedly to get your pre-registration reward character you have to use the link sent to you via email, which just dumps you into the regular app store for your device to download the regular version of the game. But your reward character doesn't show up. Supposedly they're 'working on it'. Not a good start to the game if the devs can't deliver on their pre-registration offer.

It is also launch day, so some things are bound to have bumps in them. Give them a day or so?

Besides neither one of those bots are anything to write home about and you'll be tossing dupe bots aside after a short while.

Jump in, join one of the Seibertron alliances; Uncle Seibs needs you!

I can tell you all that once the bugs get worked out, this game is really fun to play, cool to look at, and super addictive.

As your Officer of the Seibertron Autobot Alliance, I am here to say...

I'm sure our commander, Carytheone would agree.

You're darn tooting I do!

I just got back into the game now that it's gone live. It has its quirks, it's ups and downs; but we've seen some big changes to the game over the last few monthgs. Some of them took a while to adjust to and some were just plain awesome.

My point is that there is a lot of polish and fun to be had here. I have a good feeling that we will see a lot more change over the next 6 months to a year. I'm still betting on combiners

The most fun I've had is hanging out with my robobuddies, collecting bots and playing base with them - good times

This thread is also a good place to talk strategy. There are quite a few theories for both defense and offense. Sharing strategies will help win wars and we need to stop Burn and his Decepticon cronies
