This holiday weekend, Space Ape Games is hosting "Decoy Dash," the first in-game event for their hit free-to-play combat strategy game, TRANSFORMERS: EARTH WARS -- now available on iOS and Android. In addition to in-game rewards, "Decoy Dash" will debut two new female Transformers, ARCEE and NIGHTBIRD, as part of the event, adding to an incredible strong lineup of strong female characters in the game.
"Decoy Dash" begins on Friday, July 1 at 10:00am GMT and runs through Monday, July 4 at 10:00am GMT. Players that are at Level 4 and above can collect prizes, gather Battle Points and earn Decoy Crystals for a chance to win two new Transformers characters, ARCEE (AUTOBOT) and NIGHTBIRD (DECEPTICON). Both characters feature the all-new Holo Decoy ability, which places a decoy that distracts enemies and soaks up damage.
You can view the new art and bios for ARCEE, NIGHTBIRD and the other awesome female Transformers in TRANSFORMERS: EARTH WARS including a gallery of art posters and bios by clicking here.
Transformers Earth Wars "Decoy Dash"
ARCEE has been dispatched on a mission by Optimus Prime but ran into trouble when NIGHTBIRD caught up to her. The two have been crossing paths routinely as NIGHTBIRD tries to put an end to ARCEE's do-good acts. However, as the battle on Earth heats up, Optimus has sent a signal for ARCEE to return to the Autobots! After failing to eliminate ARCEE, NIGHTBIRD has been recalled by Megatron to finish the job. Battle to win Decoy Crystals to lock onto their signal using the Space Bridge and recall them back to Earth!
Battle Points can only be earned by being victorious in an Event Battle Zones which are accessed through the event menu. Players can earn more Battle Points, Bonus Experience, and gain Double XP during the Decoy Dash Event.

Appearances... can be deceptive. Quick witted and formidable in battle, Arcee is compassionate to her allies but utterly merciless to her enemies. Streamlined bodywork and light alloy construction only mean she's faster, more agile and ultimately deadlier than most of her fellow Autobots. A master of many weapons, from blasters to swords, ultimately Arcee is a living weapon in her own right.


Programmed with the skills of a mighty ninja, the non-sentient Nightbird developed a full meta-processor brain after being implanted with one of Bombshell's cerebro shells, which merged with her own simulated intelligence. Nightbird became one of the greatest threats to the Autobots, even more so when - as Bombshell was reformatted - she gained true sentience and freedom of thought.

This is the second event, we had one last weekend that got us lots of goodies including up to 3 premium character crystals.
Since this is just a Space Ape press release, I'm surprised they made that error.

I'm not entirely sure how they'd pull it off though, what with the front treads folding up inside the turret and the arms seemingly coming out of nowhere...
He's a handy little bugger to have too.

Yeah, I noticed he's a gunner with an ability similar if not identical to Long Haul - my 2-star Long Haul I was lucky enough to get about a week ago having been very useful.

Earlier I had been attacked, the log showed I lost, but the replay showed I won, said "Victory!" -19 And all the Bots died.
I contacted support and received the following:
Hello Rebecca,
Thanks for contacting us about this.
After reviewing the battle in our database I can confirm that you did in fact lose these battles.
The replay that you are shown in game is not an actual video recording of the battle but just a reenactment based on data that was gathered, this data can sometimes be subject to damage which ends up showing you a different outcome than what actually happened, and may occur when an update has just been released. However, the battle log will always contain the correct result. The team are looking into this and hope to improve it for a future update. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
Kind regards,
Stephanie F
Transformers: Earth Wars Support
Burn mentioned it happened to himntoday, and since the alliance chat is likely to disappear.... there you go.

I want him badly!
In other news, an Autobot friend of mine shared his roster, so the list is now complete. Some observations: both factions have the same number of characters and units, but the Autobots have more Air class characters while the Decepticons have more Warriors. Both sides have the same number of Special, Gunner, and Medic units. On both sides, the Air class is the only one with all characters obtainable at all four rarities.
