Re: Transformers: Armada (Revisited)
Decepticon-Aligned Mini-Cons
Subject: Destruction Team
Members: Dualor, Buzzsaw, Drill Bit
Affiliation: Mini-Con
Vehicle Modes: Twin-Barreled Tank, Excavation Vehicle, Drill Truck
Profile: With a reputation for being among the most ruthless and Machiavellian groups of Mini-Cons in existence, the Destruction Team has few admirers and fewer allies. Dualor, team leader, is so interested in attaining his goals that he cares little for what must be done along the way. Drill Bit only fights beside him because of an active love of destruction, going so far as to attack fellow Mini-Cons with hardly any provocation. Buzzsaw is the least destruction-minded of the three, but doesn’t have the moral strength to stand up to Dualor.
Attributes and Abilities: Dualor is a capable military tactician and a clever planner, with heavy weapons. Drill Bit is the strongest fighter of the trio, while Buzzsaw is a capable architect and an accomplished engineer. When the three are Powerlinked with a Transformer, they can provide nearly limitless amounts of power, coming close to taking control of the larger Transformer in the bargain.
Weaknesses: Dualor’s cunning only goes so far; if his plans go awry, he has no way of saving himself. Drill Bit’s overeagerness to fight often gets him in trouble, while Buzzsaw’s guilt often distracts him in combat.
Subjects: Night Attack Team
Members: Scattor, Fetch, Broadside
Affiliation: Mini-Con (Allied with Megatron)
Vehicle Modes: Long-Range Artillery Unit, Twin Artillery Unit, Heavy Artillery Unit
Profile: A group of battle-hardened malcontents, the Night Attack Team has sided with Megatron simply for the purpose of taking power and causing destruction. Led by the confident and highly experienced Scattor, the aggressive Fetch and the cruel, malicious Broadside have fought and won more battles than many armies, and would gladly fight anyone; they only serve with Megatron in the hopes that it will protect them from reprisals by their enemies. They are a terrible force to be reckoned with, Megatron or no.
Attributes and Abilities: Scattor is a powerful Mini-Con and an experienced commander. Fetch is exceptionally strong and fast, and has a hair-trigger temper. Broadside is skilled at night operations and works best in pitch black. All three are equipped with heavy weapons, strong armor and incredible firepower, and operate best in stealth operations.
Weaknesses: The group possesses few weaknesses, though Fetch’s temper and Scattor’s photo-sensitive optic are debilitating.
Subjects: Sea Team
Members: Oceanglide, Stormcloud, Waterlog
Affiliation: Mini-Con (Allied with Megatron)
Vehicle Modes: Military Sensor Boat, Military Speed Boat, Military Hovercraft
Profile: Dedicated towards controlling their own destinies, the Sea Team voted to aid the Decepticons rather than stand by. Led by the poetic and cutthroat Oceanglide, the monstrous Stormcloud and vicious Waterlog form a unique team of pirates, certain that their stake in the war is better than being manipulated by all sides. The three are a terrible force, but one that remains loyal ultimately to themselves.
Attributes and Abilities: Oceanglide is highly intelligent and an excellent naval warrior. Stormcloud is highly strong and fast, while Waterlog is capable of travel over both land and sea in vehicle mode. Each possess a powerful multi-purpose missile launcher, and can use them in either mode.
Weaknesses: Oceanglide is easily distracted by thrilling landscapes. Stormcloud is a coward deep down, and will flee if the odds turn against him. Waterlog, meanwhile, can go into a berserker rage if cornered, causing problems for both friends and foes.
Subjects: Deep Space Team
Members: Blastcharge, Scrap Iron, Backblast
Affiliation: Mini-Con (Allied with Megatron)
Vehicle Modes: Heavy Truck, Satellite, Orbital Rocket
Profile: Merciless and malicious, the Deep Space Team sees the debris among the stars as the perfect place to add on. Led by the brilliant but twisted Blastcharge, the brutish Backblast and the vicious Scrap Iron do their best to create more wreckage among the stars. If anything should get in their way, well...that just makes their job a little easier is all.
Attributes and Abilities: Blastcharge is highly intelligent and fairly strong as well as a capable engineer. Scrap Iron possesses advanced sensors and a powerful energy cannon in vehicle mode, and is a skilled sniper. Backblast, while lacking in intelligence, is incredibly strong and durable and can tear most things apart by smashing into them. The three combine to form the Umbral Blaster, a dark and twisted copy of the Requiem Blaster with equal power.
Weaknesses: Blastcharge’s arrogance and Backblast’s lack of intelligence are the team’s true weaknesses, while Scrap Iron’s cannon is quickly drained of its energy resources.
Subjects: Sky Terror Team
Members: Thrust, Sunstorm, Ramjet
Affiliation: Mini-Con (Allied with Megatron)
Vehicle Modes: Advanced Aerospace Craft, Advanced Supersonic Craft, Advanced Spacecraft
Profile: The Sky Terror Team works to promote only one cause; chaos. They don’t care who they serve so long as they cause devastation and destruction in their wake. Led by the cold-sparked anarchist Thrust, the shrewd Ramjet and the cunning Sunstorm are dedicated to seeing their Mini-Con brethren ruled by the Decepticons and getting a position of power within Megatron’s army when it makes its bid for universal domination.
Attributes and Abilities: All three are excellent fliers and capable pilots. Sunstorm is a capable military tactician, and skilled in all forms of combat. Ramjet is an excellent pilot and con-artist, more concerned with his own coffers than the lives of others. The three combine to form the Dirge Saber, a weapon equaling the Star Saber or Energon Saber in terms of power.
Weaknesses: While cunning and powerful, the three can be defeated if they face opponents brave enough to stand against them.
Subjects: Lunar Assault Team
Members: Payload, Scattorbrain, Kobushi
Affiliation: Mini-Con (Allied with Megatron)
Vehicle Modes: Jeep, Snowcat, Armored Dune Buggy
Profile: Dedicated to combat and improving their abilities, the Lunar Assault Team is a trio of capable fighters. Between the guerilla tactics of the highly intelligent Payload, the stealth-loving Scattorbrain, and the fierce Metallikato-trained Kobushi, this team is a capable force. While they enjoy the fight and destroying equipment, they mostly prefer to strike fear in their opponents, and relish the chance to do so under Megatron.
Attributes and Abilities: Payload is skilled at making traps for his opponents, and prefers to outwit his foes rather than overpower them. Scattorbrain enjoys causing havoc, and his stealth systems allow him to disappear from view with ease. Kobushi is a highly-trained martial artist, equipped with diamond-tipped blades on his arms capable of piercing all but the strongest forms of armor.
Weaknesses: Their predilections with their methods of combat often lead to this team being defeated in combat.
Subjects: Sky Attack Team
Members: Shockwave, Sky Lynx, Razorclaw
Affiliation: Mini-Con (Allied with Megatron)
Vehicle Modes: Supersonic Jet, Heavy Cargo Jet, Stealth Bomber
Profile: Lovers of chaos, the Sky Attack Team is united by their common thirst for destruction and will work for anyone who is willing to help them satiate that thirst. Led by the proud Shockwave, the competitive Sky Lynx and the malicious Razorclaw love nothing more than to unleash chaos upon their opponents. Destroying buildings, slaying soldiers or civilians, it doesn’t matter what they do as long as they leave a massive black mark in their wake.
Attributes and Abilities: All three are capable fliers and skilled warriors, specializing in aerial combat and stealth bombing; only their methods vary. Shockwave acts more out of a desire to destroy lives, while Razorclaw prefers to destroy buildings and institutions. Sky Lynx prefers to hit civilian targets from a distance, and considers his actions as little more than a game.
Weaknesses: Razorclaw’s armor is fairly weak, while Shockwave’s lust for destruction and Sky Lynx’s love of the game make them slightly weaker fighters.

Re: Transformers: Armada (Revisited)
And a new story is up!
-
A few of the Autobots and their allies decide to take in some Earth sports, wrangling along a less-than-willing techie to accompany them. Their fun is ruined, however, when a pair of Decepticons decide to cause trouble. Meanwhile on Cybertron, a plot is hatched against Starscream. Get in on the Fun and Games.
-
This was a request story for a recent kiriban. Wirejack is the creation of lonegamer7, my editing partner with the series, while Terrablast is the creation of MegsNTerra. Hope everyone likes it.

Re: Transformers: Armada (Revisited)
Hey out there; here to deliver a little bit of an update for everyone.
New cast photos have been taken, but have yet to make it to DeviantArt. For some stupid reason, they refuse to load.
Meanwhile, production on the next installment is stalled for the time being. Hopefully I'll be able to start proper work on it by this week. I do have a title confirmed however; "Love and Monsters". Take from that what you will.

Re: Transformers: Armada (Revisited)
Damn you for working so fast! ;)
Between this, Myth Wars, revisiting Energon, and my normal forum browsing, I'm gonna' wind up being a shut-in all summer long.

Re: Transformers: Armada (Revisited)
If everyone will allow me a Futurama reference...good news everyone!
The initial draft for "Love And Monsters" is complete and posted at my DA page. Expect an edited, final version in a few days...maybe with some additional cast photos to follow.
