IC: Turmoil (various)"I obey." said Turmoil, switching off his comm. He turned to face his troops, to give his usual, extremely direct 'inspirational' speech. "Exterminate, annihilate, destroy!" he roared, punching the air."Ooh RAH!" his forces chorused back. "Decepticons conquer and destroy, Decepticons conquer and destroy..." they chanted, marching forward on to the dropships. The three of them disengaged from the docking bay and rose into the air, two closing their doors and the other leaving them open for Turmoil to climb aboard. He did so, and stood on the edge, cannon primed and lust for Energon growing.The sky was growing darker; it was going to be a night to remember.

IC: Alphonus suddenly pounded the table as his comm beeped. "This is what I was about to discuss! The possibility of a Decepticon attack!" He shoved an Energon pipe into his body as he spoke, to fuel up quickly. "Fuel up! The Autotroopers at Mine 4NZZN4 are under attack!" When he was loaded up, he quickly transformed and hooked up to his trailer. "Autobots, roll out! Get to the nearest dropship!"He commed Grindcore. "We are performing a quick response to the attack on the mine! Send any orders you wish us to perform!"

[Doctor J. Wotzon]

IC: Decepticon Attack (Mine 4NZZN4)Although the Autobot Mining Operations had bolstered their defences since the last two battles, so had the Decepticons improved the weaponry on their Dropships and carried by their infantry. So when Mine 4NZZN4 was taken by surprise, their light anti-aircraft turrets were no match for the mortar and heavy rocket cannons of the dropships and the troops it carried, all of which were armed with heavy weapons like X18 Scrapmakers, Thermo Rocket Cannons and Glass Gas Cannons (aside from the standard issue Neutron Assault Rifles and Photon Burst Rifles).Turmoil ordered his Dropship to lower to the ground, allowing him to disembark with the others on board his ship, while the other two Dropships waited in the air or released several Seekers to give air support. The ground troops, led by Turmoil, tore through the defences, leaving nothing to chance, until they reached the blast doors. A Destroyer was dropped off in tank mode by one of the Dropships and drove slowly towards the doors. Destroyers were the largest and most powerful soldier seen on the battlefield, and using one in this attack would make the Autobots believe this attack was of large importance. Exactly what we want them to think, thought TurmoilThe Destroyer reached the doors, and transformed into it's towering robot form. Even Turmoil, who was large by Decepticon standards, was dwarfed by the giant. It dug its huge fingers between the doors and pulled, beginning to tear the door open, much to the Decepticons' enjoyment, as the small crowd began to cheer.IC: Crosscut (New Iacon)Crosscut transformed into Beast form and boarded a Dropship outside.

[Axilus Prime]

IC: "Move! Move!" Alphonus drove into the dropship, presumably followed by everyone else. "Let's roll." He pressed a few buttons and sent it hurtling along at maximum speed. "Our forces are spread thin as it is! We cannot allow them to catch us off guard!" Unaware that that was precisely what this course of action would cause, he flew on, glaring out the windshield."Vector Sigma..." An Autobot, a Scout by appearance, charged in valiantly and fired. He transformed as he was hit by the EMP, falling over, then was melted to scrap."DON'T GIVE UP! KEEP GOING! KEEP--SCRAP THIS!" A Soldier began firing in tank mode.OOC: That little fanfare at the end of You're a Soldier now should be playing about now.IC: A dropship flew in from behind. "Prepare for evacuation!" Alphonus opened the rear blast door while pulling a lever. The dropship picked up speed, going too fast to stop. If they were inside when it landed, they would all die. "Roll out and attack!" He transformed into truck mode, hooked up to his trailer, and drove out full speed, firing on Turmoil as he flew off the edge of the dropship's rear. By the time all the Autobots escaped the dropship, it was a foot from the Destroyer--flying full speed.Alphonus transformed in midair, grabbing onto his trailer without allowing it to transform, and landing with it. The fall was not great, as the dropship had to be in low altitude when approaching a mine tunnel. "Turmoil. This time, we may do battle." He pulled out his Ion Rifle and opened fire.

[Doctor J. Wotzon]

OOC: I don't know why you made your dropship fly so close to the Destroyer, but whatever, fine by me.IC: Decepticons (Mine 4NZZN4)The Destroyer finished forcing the doors open, and with the dropship being so close, reached out and grabbed it, before throwing it to the ground and stamping on it. Any Autobots left inside were killed, including the pilot.Meanwhile, the other Decepticons either charged into the mine to battle the Autobots in there, or clashed with the other Autobots from the dropship, while Turmoil and Alphonus faced off. One poor Autobot attempted to interfere, and was swiftly obliterated, making it clear that this was a one-on-one battle."Alphonus Prime," Turmoil mocked as the two of them circled each other. "I see you're back on your feet after Magmatron wiped the floor with you.""Turmoil. This time, we may do battle." He pulled out his Ion Rifle and opened fire. Turmoil rolled to the side and fired three shots from his cannon. Even if they missed, the splash damage caused by the explosion was still highly damaging.

[Zulu Yankee Kilo Echo]

IC: GigatronGigatron, seeing that the attack was underway, commed Betadron."Beta, your squad is clear to move in."IC: WideloadBehind Turmoil, the sound of a Scrapmaker spinning up could be heard. It wasn't long before a hail of bullets cut through the air towards him."Here's Widey!"

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: Alphonus was the pilot.IC: "I had a rather different experience with Magmatron, recently. Now why is he too cowardly to show his face?" He transformed and drove out of the way, getting his trailer knocked off to the side. "GAAH!" He grunted a few times as he transformed, flipped, and shot at the rocks above Turmoil with his Ion Rifle so they would fall on him, while using his machine guns directly on Turmoil. He began to move forward as he fired, also switching his Ion Rifle to firing on Turmoil after the rocks began to fall. Melee was his main advantage."We've got to take down that Destroyer!" Omnitrix yelled to Wideload. He Shifted into Warpath for some extra armor and began to fire on it.Victory Leo shook his head. "I doubt that'll work." He did what he hated to--transformed. With a loud, immensely startling roar, he pounced on the Destroyer and began to savagely beat up its head."GIVE HIM SUPPORT FIRE!" Omnitrix shot at the Destroyer's arms whenever it tried to reach up at Leo.Betadron immediately took off. "Where are we striking, a mine, or the city?""Finally!" Grindor yelled. "But one does not simply attack New Iacon...do they?" There was no sarcasm, only wondering. "Yes! GLORIOUS BATTLE!""I thought you were being silent!" Betadron growled.

[Zulu Yankee Kilo Echo]

IC: Gigatron"No, you blasted fool," Gigatron commed back, "attack the mine we mentioned in the (alluded-to but never actually IC'd) briefing we had!"IC: WideloadWideload slowly rotated his gun around until it was level with the Destroyer.

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: Well, all other chars are (understandably due to timezones)waiting for Mr. Sir. Dr. Wotz, D.T.S (Doctor of Temporal Science), only Cons will be acting in this post.IC: "Well, I did suggest it, but you rejected it. It was worth a try." Betadron nearly pounded the buttons as he eagerly, bloodthirstily prepared for battle and had the dropship, retrofitted with weapons of his choosing, take off. "Decepticons, get all your weapons! We are headed for Mine 400STRA, one of the most valuable mines in the Autobot territory. Though there will be little resistance, fight as though there is much, and the Autobots are nearly guaranteed to fall before us! Lugnut! Is the Destroyer ready?""Turmoil has it.""RAAAGH!" He pounded the table. "Then send..for the Infecticons."

[Doctor J. Wotzon]

OOC: SURPRISE!Introducing... The Infecticons!These guys are a new combiner team controlled by me and TNG, with a twist: All of it's members are infected by a biochemical virus that causes organic matter to grow from their bodies and give them extra strength and speed. I left out the Bio section on mine because here's one for all of them:At least a few of them operated as special ops Decepticons, while others had different pasts (such as Tentaculas and Deadlock). All of them were donated to Shockwave by Megatron to experiment on how the organic life found on their target planet (AKA Earth) could potentially enhance Transformer abilities. This opening experiment was a failure, but created a team of super soldiers (the Infecticons) and paved the way for the experiments which created the Dinobots and Insecticons.Wotz's Guys:The BossName: ScowlFaction: DecepticonClass: LeaderAppearance: His body before being infected was lean and powerful, with matte navy blue armour plating and chrome gold as a secondary colour. After being infected by The Virus, organic growth has pushed aside almost all that made him handsome. His legs look almost normal (save some ooze that's seemingly constantly dribbling down them), but his left shoulder, chest and head have been completely replaced by what can be simply described as a huge blob. Parts of his original armour remain, but have been torn apart and are embedded in the 'flesh' (if you could call it that) of the Virus infection. His left arm is twisted and mangled, with one large tentacle tearing out from his wrist, from which branch two smaller ones, forming a sort of claw, which he can use as a melee weapon. Perhaps the most bizarre and frightening thing is his face, or lack thereof. Where one would usually find someone's head, there is a blobby mass, with a few sensory tendrils flailing out. With such an extreme condition, some wonder how he can be a leader. That is until they hear him speak. His voice comes from everywhere and nowhere getting inside the very heads of those he's talking to. If someone was to look closely, they would see the remnants of his screaming face buried in the organic matter, and it is this that makes people wonder if there really is any of the real Scowl left in there at all.Alternate mode: Something akin to a large vehicle, a truck maybe, but as far as most people are concerned it's a blob with wheels.Weapons: A serrated sword, an Ion Rifle and an Energon Harvester.Skills: Scowl’s infection by the Virus gives him additional strength and speed which, combined with the power he already possessed, made him incredibly powerful on the field. The added speed partially makes up for the slowness he possessed (as a Leader) before.Traits: With a team as dangerous as the Abominicons, an even more dangerous leader is needed to keep them in line. Scowl is that leader, and fulfills his role with ruthless efficiency.Weakness: Has trouble working with allies not part of his team, has severe brain damage (more his sanity than anything vital)due to his infection.The SiCName: DeadlockFaction: DecepticonClass: ScientistAppearance: Image (formerly, he now sports blobs and tentacles across his body, and only one of his eyes remains intact)Alternate mode: A jet similar to Blast Off's but with smaller thrusters and a much larger wingspan.Weapons: Photon Burst Rifle, Gear Shredder, Heal BeamSkills: Strategy and a small amount of medical experience (hence the beam).Traits: Deadlock is incredibly zealous and sees the Decepticon cause as a religion almost. Others wonder why he is even allowed near anyone, let alone why he is the second in command of the Infecticons, but few dare question Scowl's leadership, and those that do decorate the walls and floor of his quarters.Weakness: Despite being the team strategist, Deadlock isn't very smart about how he himself fights. This often places him in danger which he doesn't notice due to his zealous rage.Bio: Deadlock was homeless, roaming the streets with nowhere to go, no one to turn to in times of need, and no chance of survival, until he was 'saved' by the Decepticons and submitted to Shockwave's experiments which drove him insane, but his insanity also seemed to give him a fantastic tactical mind.TNG's Guys:Name: TentaculasFaction: DecepticonClass: SoldierAppearance: http://tfwiki.net/w2..._gamerender.jpg (Original appearance)Now, he appears as a scarred, pitted robot, with oozing holes all over his body, and ten tentacles coming out of his back. A trace of the original robot can be seen if you try hard enough. Slime oozes out from under his split armor plating as well.Alternate Mode: A tank with three barrels that have been replaced by tentacles. Six other tentacles serve as his treads, eased about by slime. The last tentacle is behind him, acting as an exhaust port or way to attack. It is meant more for melee and armor, but it cannot actually fire.Weapons: A sword, a spiked mace, a Scrapmaker X-12, and a Fusion Cannon. On each wrist he has a gatling gun. He carries his two ranged and two melee weapons in his tentacles, drawing them from a compartment in his back, leaving six tentacles free for whatever he wishes.Skills: Strength, good at using his tentacles without tangling them...usually. Can use all his weapons at the same time, on the same or various targets, without the slightest confusion.Except when his tentacles mess up.Traits: Tentaculas wishes to be the ultimate warrior. He sees his mutation as a hindrance, a help, and a challenge to learn to use, all at the same time. He loves challenges, but will get obsessive with them. He's a monster at heart, roaring and growling frequently.Weakness: Slow, bad aim at long ranges, his slime can get in the way sometimes. His tentacles do occasionally mess up, due to the virus having a level of sentience.Bio: Tentaculas once was a gladiator, like Megatron, with the designation C-499. He took the name Devastator for himself at one time, but that was before he met Shockwave.Shockwave, in all his madness, created a virus that made his whole team secrete slime, start to rust in some places (non-lethally), and have various growths. For one, it was spines. For another, a hard shell. And so on. For him, it was tentacles, hence his new name. He and the rest of his team were released, an abomination to all of Cybertron, and a weapon for the Decepticons.Name: LockdownFaction: DecepticonClass: SoldierAppearance: http://www.seibertro...zione01Logo.jpg (Original)Now, Lockdown is much the same, though the glowing lines on his body are green, and his skeletal armor is beefed up...with ever-oozing pockets of slime. Spikes protrude from his back, arms, legs, knees, and elbows. The spines can move as if they were claws, in various different configurations.Alternate mode: http://www.seibertro...zione02Logo.jpg (Original)Now his spikes, especially on his spine, are long and sharp, with ooze coming from every single crack and crevice in his body. When he opens his mouth, he can shoot slime.Weapons: A flaming sword, and all his spikes can be fired, which detonate after five seconds. As mentioned earlier, he can grow and regrow spikes, and use them as claws if they are close enough together. These claws do not have very good grip. Shoots slime from dinosaur mouth.Skills: Good aim with his spikes, good reflexes, and passable skill with his sword. One of the faster Soldiers, but nothing special in that regard.Traits: Lockdown is in this for carnage. Less about full victory, more about seeing his enemies' guts spew. He sometimes eats the parts of fallen foes--with a little seasoning of course.Weakness: Slightly below average for his class in terms of strength, absolutely terrible aim with his slime-shooting (Then again, it is difficult to aim your vomit.), bad at using weapons other than those he already has.Bio: Lockdown was a bounty hunter, in the game for upgrades. He ended up on a Decepticon squad with four others, and then was experimented on by Shockwave with a virus. His mutation was spines. He ended up losing his ability to work with new weapons, but was proficient with the ones he had at the time. He gave up his lust for upgrades and instead took up a new passion--horribly disgusting carnage.Name: GroundwindFaction: DecepticonsClass: SoldierAppearance: http://www.majhost.c...1_2566327_o.jpg (Original)Now, Groundwind's viral infection has given him tubes and pods resembling barnacles all over his body. He looks sickly and is covered in the disgusting matter, with ooze and slime in every single gap in his body. He has seven tongues in his mouth for some odd reason, though that is not a symptom of the virus.Alternate mode: Rather than being a triple changer between jet and tank, Groundwind commissioned a special vehicle mode for himself that he could scan--a jet with tank treads. While it has no tank weaponry, it has tank armor and the mobility of an average tank on land. He can take off, but he must have a moving start like any other jet on a runway, and has miniguns on the underside of each wing.Weapons: He can use the miniguns on the underside of each wing, but he much prefers the tubes and pods all over his body. These release infectious particles (not the virus, that would be insanity.) that cause various symptoms when used on a target in large enough quantity. The symptoms are typically ugliness, hallucinations, dizziness, slight weakening, and slight slowing. The more they are infected, the greater the symptoms become, giving them time to figure it out if the initial attack only grazes them. The symptoms always, as a rule, wear off in 10 minutes from the last dose.Skills: Seeing in dark, hazy areas, no fear, average Soldier strength and speed, good aim.Traits: Groundwind despises Shockwave. He hates his viral infection, unlike most of his team, and rages when he is mocked about it. However, not exactly being the smartest, he never attempted to (not that he has the intelligence to succeed if he did) find a cure. Instead, he took a sick pleasure in the one respite his infection gave him--his ability to infect others. While the infection he could dispense had no similarities with his own, he enjoyed seeing other sick, enjoyed seeing them suffer as he did. He is not very trigger happy about killing, but is indifferent to it and will do so when it is needed or if anyone tells him to. He'd kill an Autobot he didn't originally intend to if his worst enemy told him to. (Though he'd go for the enemy afterward.) He prefers to infect and torture, relishing the suffering of others, rather than the death.Weakness: Not very smart, but nowhere near the stupidest of the Decepticons. Hates his infection, and lacks conviction at times because of it. Blind rage. No skill with a melee weapon.

[~Shockwave~]

OOC: what did I miss?

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: Only what is on this very page. Read it, it's just one page.

[~Shockwave~]

OOC: ok... not much. Read it all.

[Doctor J. Wotzon]

OOC: We can get to the combiner profiles in our PM convo. As for the attacks...IC: Various (Mine 4NZZN4)Turmoil rolled back to his original position, dodging the rocks and some of the machine gun fire, the rest of which hit him and did minimal damage, but did manage to disable his Energon shield once the Ion Blaster was brought into play. While taking damage, he did continue to fire his cannon at and around Alphonus, before charging forward to prepare for more close quarters fighting.Omnitrix's shooting was not enough to stay the hand of the Destroyer until it had peeled Victory Leo from its face. However, its vision was impaired, and it continued to be hammered at by Wideload's Scrapmaker. The combined efforts of the three Autobots started to show their effects as some armour on its arm (where it was doing its best to block the hail of fire) began to break apart. Enraged, the towering Decepticon launched unleashed an EMP pulse to soften up its enemies, before firing a continuous laser beam to melt them.Crosscut sprinted forward towards a spear-wielding Decepticon, holding his own dual Neutron Assault Rifles. Then, at the last possible moment, he leapt into the air and did a forward somersault over his attacker, firing his weapons down on them as he sailed through the air. When he landed, he grabbed the stunned soldier and threw them into the path of an incoming missile, throwing him to the ground and destroying the Decepticon in the process. Before he had even gotten to his feet, another was upon him to attempt to grab his weapon and disarm him. Crosscut gave them a threatening look, and just as the Decepticon was about to let go, the ex-pirate shouldered him to the ground and shot him in the face.

[Axilus Prime]

IC: Alphonus shot the center cannon blast, blowing it and any close to it up. The explosion hurt as he jumped straight through it, and a chunk of shoulder armor fell off. "GAAAH!" He fired from his Ion Rifle while shooting with his machine gun, spun out of the way of any incoming attacks, and swapped a machine gun for his sword. "HAAAI!" At close enough range, he slashed up at Turmoil's face, starting from his stomach area if the slash connected, while lunging forward.Omnitrix Shifted into Alphonus, but with a hollow trailer to get the other two inside, he got them all to safety.Raging, Leo burst out of the trailer. He jumped on the Destroyer again, this time aiming to weaken its legs. "RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHRRRRRGGGGHHH!""RRRGGH!" Omnitrix shifted back to normal, the spot that had been torn open now a hole in a leg plate. He ended up spinning from the force of being ripped and shifting at the same time, and landed at Crosscut's feet. "Nice day we're having, hm?"A second dropship, a private one, flew in. It was just as well for Betadron's squad, unless they wanted to be covered in ooze. "You called? This had better be worth the time." Tentaculas tapped the comm mic impatiently."How many Autobots will I TEAR APART?!" Lockdown bellowed on the comm.Silently, Groundwind only clawed the wall."Prepare for attack at Mine 400STRA. That's all you need to know. This way!" He zoomed on full speed, presumably tailed by the Infecticons. OOC: Will make Mega-Post detailing attack later.

[Zulu Yankee Kilo Echo]

OOC: Woah woah woah woah...can you post the profile for the combined robot before you have them all attack? And I know two of the team members are staff characters, but that doesn't mean they don't require my approval.IC: WideloadWideload stumbled back and sheilded his optics as the EMP struck. He managed to crawl behind a piece of rubble before the laser did too much damage, but his leg was singed to the point that he wouldn't be walking anytime soon.

[~Shockwave~]

Ic:The three bots had been firing at the attackers. Technically jolt was firing too, but he was the weapon.

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: Whoops. Well, they didn't attack, and no such mega-post was made yet. Even if the combined profile isn't there, are the individual profiles approved? (Without combining, until combined profile is approved) Anyway, I doubt the names or personalities are moddy, so I see no need to edit that post unless you tell me to.If the individuals are approved, they can attack straightaway without combining. IC: Omnitrix got up. "Evo, Hydra, Shade! We have to take down that Destroyer!" He looked at Wideload, who seemed to have missed the part where he saved everyone with a replica Alphonus trailer shifted out of his vehicle mode's rear end. "Wideload, we can cover you, but we need you to fire!" Omnitrix stood in front of Wideload, giving him just enough space to shoot. "Hydra, Shade, what you're doing! Evo, watch for enemies coming from--" He shot down a Vehicon with his sonic cannon. "...behind." Omnitrix kept on shooting, hoping his plan would work...or even be listened to.

[Zulu Yankee Kilo Echo]

OOC: Yes, they are approved. If I may ask, what's the delay with the combined robot's profile?

[~Shockwave~]

Ic: They did as they where told. It was quite clear that Hydra might have been enjoying her new weapons a bit too much. And Evo was dual wielding jolt and his blaster.OOC: 'night guys!

Edited by Wheeljack, Sep 18 2012 - 11:42 PM.

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: Yes. Wotz, as he put it, is a bit slow with churning out profiles. Plus we need to discuss its combined abilities over PM.IC: "Disgusting scrapheaps..." Grindor could already feel their disgusting slime in his joints...the virus all over him. The darkness closing in as spikes and tentacles violated every crack in his armor, every space between two wires....until he was one of them. Until--A clawed hand slammed and dug into Grindor's stomach, breaking his train of thought and causing intense pain. The voice of Betadron rang in through a private comm, interspersed with feedback and static from their sheer proximity, bellowing enough to nearly break the comm. "FOOL! THE SHIP-TO-SHIP COMM IS STILL OPEN!" Betadron hurled him across the room. "Vehicon disobedience. Nothing major. Betadron out." In truth, Betadron was as disgusted as Grindor, and so he did not wish to be rude...in that manner. Yet."That BIGOTED, CONDESCENDING, STUPID--""Silence, Groundwind.""I will be silent when HE feels our pain! When he wakes up after rest or stasis, when he tastes his Energon, only to find a shifting mass of slime, rust, and GROTESQUE PROTRUSIONS FROM EVERY INCH OF HIS BODY!""Ha. You complain too much. I actually see it as a challenge..." He writhed his tentacle, grunting a bit, until he got it to press a button to dim the lights. "To use the condition to my advantage. You should do the same.""I agree. It's so much more fun when we can tear the Autobots apart limb from limb. Watching their pathetic bodies shake and scream as you slowly tear out their innards..eat some of it...oh yes, with this virus, that doesn't give me indigestion anymore.""Not quite what I meant.""Speak for yourselves. I'll spray you all with these...THINGS on my body if you keep talking like that. This virus is nothing but a curse! We could have just combined without being this way, but NO...." Groundwind stomped around on the deck. A disgusting place, even for him. The slime trails of the Infecticons crisscrossed the deck, the walls themselves seemed to be alive. The sight was repulsive...but he could find no refuge from it. It was the same thing he saw, the same thing he always saw, every time he took a single step.Grindor got up. "How close are we?""About this close!" Betadron grabbed a lever from inside a compartment on the ship, and began to fire. "Man the cannons! Take out ALL the anti-air defenses! We are to have NO resistance on our way out, or this mine will not be ours at all!""THE MASTER SHALL NOT BE DENIED!" Lugnut opened the air lock, ignoring the loud hiss, and jumped out without so much as closing it."Overzealous worshiping fat..." Grindor slammed it shut and manned a turret. The loud clang and boom was music to his ears. If only he could see it without the targeting screen, experience its full glory......just like Lugnut could. Of course, the monstrous Decepticon didn't care. He was too caught up in praising Magmatron silently as he transformed and landed around the mine entrance. "PROCEED DOWN! THEY CAN ONLY ATTACK AIR!" As he manually messed up the turrets, simply POKE-ing some and letting the rest shoot each other whenever he evaded their shots, he made the mine defenseless. He looked down at the descending dropship. Skydiving was fun...Betadron pulled up at the mine entrance, blasting it open with the dropship's guns, and slamming the bow of the ship into as many Autobots as possible. "FIRE!" He transformed his hand into the fusion cannon/sword assembly, and tore apart a Scout. "Any Decepticon who leaves a survivor will answer to me! BEGIN OUR ASSAULT!"Lugnut swooped in and landed with a POKE on a Soldier, killing him in one hit due to the sheer force. What he did not account for, was the force of his own landing. "RAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGGGH!" Thankfully the soldier broke his fall. "I feel this pain for the glory of the DECEPTICONS!" He quickly stood up, fighting the pain with only his own foolish, insane zeal.Grindor filled the air with fire and hurled Autobot bits everywhere. Every so often, an Autotrooper would land on his saw and fly around before being reduced to scrap. "Fools. Feel my wrath!""Infecticons, approach from the mine's emergency exit! Push all the Autobots toward the center!"An Autobot quickly ran, comming Grindcore. "Sir, this is Trailshatter of Mine 400STRA! I need backup! Forces are spread thin!"There was a loud clang as if he had tripped on something. "There are already dead bodies enough to trip on! We need--"

[Doctor J. Wotzon]

OOC: I posted them here with the express purpose of Zyke approving them. TNG, you were a bit quick to post, but it's all sorted now so whatever. Also, I would rather you didn't start attacking stuff when I haven't even posted as the leader of the group yet.IC: Various (Mine 4NZZN4)Turmoil dashed back, avoiding the slash, then dove forward to tackle Alphonus at the midsection.The Destroyer began to shake its leg violently."Get out of the way, Autobot!" Crosscut growled, shoving Omnitrix to the right. And just in time, too, as a Decepticon came in to punch the Scout in the face, but had his arm caught and twisted with a sickening crunch. With his free hand, Crosscut deployed Dawnbreaker from his wrist. It twirled and glimmered in the air for a second or so before he caught it by the handle, and brought the blade ringing down on the Decepticon, slicing clean through it, vertically.IC: Scowl and Deadlock (Mine 400STRA)"Silence you fools!" Came Scowl's deep voice from the shadows. The grotesque leader of the Infecticons stepped out and seemed to glare at them, despite his lack of actual optics. "And get moving!"The doors opened, and the five of them burst from the dropship, much to the surprise and dismay of the Autobots crowding out of the emergency exit. Scowl would smile, were that possible. They were like cattle, ripe for the slaughter."DIE AUTOBOTS!" he roared, opening fire with his Ion Blaster. Dealock did the same with his Gear Shredder, and the rest of the squad unleashed their various attacks, gunning down the Autobots. Some of them tried to flee, and some others tried to attack, but the emergency exit was not designed to be so overcrowded, and many of them were crushed in the struggle before the Infecticons even opened fire.An Autobot quickly ran, comming Grindcore. "Sir, this is Trailshatter of Mine 400STRA! I need backup! Forces are spread thin!"There was a loud clang as if he had tripped on something. "There are already dead bodies enough to trip on! We need--" His words were cut off as he was decapitated by Scowl. "Move into the mine. Spread out; there will be no need for Abomination here."OOC: Sorry about the wait for the combiner profile, Zyke. He'll be on the way soon, I'm just slow and busy

[Zulu Yankee Kilo Echo]

OOC: We'll see about that last line of Scowl's...IC: GrindcoreGrindcore swore."I should've known," he grunted. Now, he faced a dilemma: it would be very difficult to send forces to one mine or the other without losing at least one, and spreading out the defenses evenly would probably just end up in the capture of both. He stood up and paced around his quarters, reviewing his options.OOC: Since Inferna gave me control of her characters...IC:Not far from mine 4NZZN4, a familiar blue form dove into the foray and landed next to Wideload."Give me cover!" Painkiller demanded, looking over Wideload's damaged leg."Scrap. What did you do this time?""I got lasered by that Destroyer over yonder."The medic looked over the leg."I'll probably get it fixed, but the damage is pretty bad."She bit her lip."Worst case scenario, we're going to have to amputate."The color drained from Wideload's faceplate.Red Alert was about to use his heal beam on a downed Autobot when a green, clawed foot landed on the helm of his patient. He looked up in dismay."Wasp?" he scoffed, "my, you've grown."Waspinator snarled and kicked the SMO backwards."It Waspinator now, medic-bot!"Red Alert picked himself up out of the dirt and pulled out his battle pistol."Either way," he growled, "you're going down."He opened fire as Waspinator came charging.

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: Oh. Well, Infecticons didn't do anything but speak for that reason. I just wanted to keep things moving.IC: Alphonus brought his other sword in and let Turmoil tackle that. He shot at his face point blank with his Ion Rifle. Regardless of the result, he transformed and backed away to avoid a point blank shot whenever Turmoil could get up.A few bonelike spikes flew in at Autobots from behind. Lockdown wasn't going to be going easy. "Lockdown, TERRORIZE!" His skeletal beast mode simply dislocated in various locations and re-assembled, still as disgustingly altered as before.Autotroopers fell at Groundwind's feet, nauseous and dazed. "Feel my pain...and may it last for days." Most likely, though, it would not.From behind a Soldier, multiple Scrapmaker blasts came point blank from behind his head. Tentaculas had gently and quietly slipped in on his own slime. "Focus fire on the leg!" Omnitrix continued firing on the Destroyer.A random Autotrooper started comming random high-rank officials. "Prime? Wideload? Painkiller? ANYONE?!" "BE SILENT AUTOBOT SCUM!" Lugnut's POKE came in from behind and ended him. "Your voice is a scourge to GLORIOUS Magmatron!"Betadron walked through, firing every now and then. "Call your Grindcore, fools. I challenge him to show his face on an actual battlefield!"

OOC: Red Alert is at mine 4NZZ4N. Aren't the Infecticons attacking the other mine?

[~Shockwave~]

IC: hydra and shade obeyed, while Evo covered the rear.Blitzwing had also joined the fight, flying directly at the prime with his freeze rays.OOC: have you checked the pm conversation zyke? I've decided on the names, I just need to make the profiles.

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: Whoops. Edited.IC: Omnitrix stretched his arm through Shifting, shoving Alphonus out of the way. "LOOK OUT, PRIME!" The freeze rays were now on a course for Turmoil.Incidentally, that provided distraction for Alphonus' next move. He received the transmission from the silenced Autobot. "Autobots, this attack was a diversion! They are attacking Mine 400STRA, one of our most important mines! Do not split off from this group unless called for by Grindcore! We cannot allow the Decepticons to take either!" Now was the time for greater force. They had to eliminate the Decepticon threat here so they could reinforce the others. He made a run for his trailer. Alphonus commed Grindcore. "Mine 400STRA is under attack! We have a situation here, which we can handle, but we cannot send any reinforcements at this time!" His feet seemed to split apart slightly as he crashed down on his knees, inserting his hands in the underside of his trailer. It transformed into a weapons depot, which he got into the center of. Again, he inserted his hands into the sides of the ring, and placed his feet into two slots. "Engage combat armor." The ring's supports rose up, splitting into arms and legs, which moved closer to the center. The ring collapsed in, transforming into combat armor, until all the pieces slid and snapped into place, releasing steam. His thrusters boomed, more thunderous than the roar of Victory Leo, who, oddly enough, had been attacking the Destroyer between the legs.OOC: Despite the ridiculous amount of detail, the paragraph above only took one minute. I just like dramatizing some things with detail.IC: "Let the field test begin." The Combat Armor had been attached, and Alphonus flew at Turmoil, firing barrage cannons, machine guns, and his Ion Rifle all at the same time. "I'm coming for you!" At the last second, he pulled up and flipped in midair, while flipping something out from his back in the opposite direction.The rail gun landed in his hands as he kept himself steady in midair. Energy pulsed in and filled the cannon until it seemed to shake. "Destroy the Destroyer!" And with that, the projectile could barely be seen, save for the shockwave that shook the air and rocks as it zoomed right to the colossal target.

[~Shockwave~]

Ic: blitzwingBlitzwing immediately started assaulting Hydra and shade.

[Doctor J. Wotzon]

OOC: TNG, please try to refrain from not only attacking twice in the same post (as in, attacking then attacking again without getting a response; attacking with two weapons is fine), but then going on to attack again without the other person responding. I know we're trying to keep this RPG alive, but all of your posts could do without random attacks flying at Turmoil, who already has a blade and gunfire to deal with.IC: Various (Mine 4NZZN4)Prime's blade gave a minor cut to Turmoil's shoulder, but the gunfire kept him at bay for a few precious moments. The freeze rays were now on a course for Turmoil, but did not hit, as the rays dissipated in the air far from their destination.Turmoil ducked beneath the ridiculous amount of projectiles by transforming into tank mode, firing his machine guns and tank cannon at the aerial target.The Destroyer unleashed another EMP burst, an expanding dome to stun his various attackers, and just in time, as the combined assaults of the Autobots sent him staggering into the rocky side of the mine exterior, bringing huge boulders falling down onto some unfortunate individuals below. Having sustained a noticeable amount of damage ("Ow, I actually felt that!"), he pounded his fists into the ground for support as he transformed into his huge tank mode at the command of Turmoil. The Decepticons still outside the mine charged inside, leaving the Destroyer, who blasted the entrance to the mine, bringing it crashing down and creating a huge mound of rubble separating the Decepticons from the Autobots (and the Destroyer, still in tank form)."Decepticons," Turmoil growled. "It's time to take control of this mine. Kill the guards, capture the workers." he looked over to a pair of Decepticons, one a Leaper and another a Brute. "You two, guard the emergency exit. Make sure no Autobots get inside."

[Zulu Yankee Kilo Echo]

IC: Grindcore"I know," came Grindcore's reply, "I'm sending in a team..."OOC: Introducing...The Velocibots!Zyke's characters:Name: Searchlight (chest)Faction: AutobotClass: LeaderAppearance: A sleekly designed white robot with blue and yellow highlights. His vehicle mode's jet engines end up pointing upwards on his shoulders, and the wings end up on his back and the sides of his legs.Alternate mode: A supersonic Cybertronian jet. It was a prototype during the war and can travel up to mach 6.Weapons: At first glance, his weapon would appear to be an ordinary photon burst rifle. However, it can transform into the barrel of the Requiem Blaster. He also uses a regular neutron assault rifle (the triple-barreled variant used near the start of the Exodus) and an energon sword. In vehicle mode, he carries a payload of fusion charges that he typically uses on high-speed bombing runs.Skills: In addition to great accuracy with long-distance firearms, Searchlight can use the jets that end up on his shoulders and back for an extra speed boost in combat.Traits: While his personality outside of the battlefield is joking and laid-back, he instantly becomes an extremely serious commander when in combat. While he isn't the best military strategist around, he leads his team with swift efficiency. Weakness: It is very difficult for him to maneuver when traveling at extreme speeds.Name: Electrobolt (right arm)Faction: AutobotClass: ScientistAppearanceAlternate mode: A streamlined Cybertronian racecar that takes design queues from the long-lost Velocitronian civilizaton.Weapons: A double-barreled path blaster that forms the body of the Requiem blaster. He also carries a battle axe that, at the flick of a switch, becomes charged with circuit-scrambling electricity, and an energon battle pistol.Skills: Before the War, Electrobolt was one of the number one racers on Cybertron. Now, he uses that speed, along with a vehicle form upgraded for rough terrain, to his advantage.Traits: Electrobolt lives for the race. He loves feeling the wind against his bumper and the rush of charged energon that comes with his high levels of speed.Weakness: His frame is more fragile than that of other Scientists.Name: Gearshift (left arm)Faction: AutobotClass: ScientistAppearance: Lanky and somewhat tall for a Scientist with a blue and light grey color scheme (picture G1 Dragstrip in his teammate Breakdown's colors).Alternate mode: A sleek Cybertronian speeder somewhat resembling the Formula One cars of Earth.Weapons: A scatter blaster that forms the Requiem Blaster's grip. For melee, he uses a spiked mace. In vehicle mode, he uses two M1 Tachyon repeaters.Skills: Like his teammates, Gearshift is extremely fast on the battlefield, but this comes at the expense of heavier armor.Traits: Gearshift is a fun-loving racer who had a competitive rivalry with Electrobolt before the war broke out. Now, their rivalry has transferred into their new "work," and they constantly compete for the number of kills in battle, the number of missiles evaded, etc.Weakness: His armor plating is weaker than most other Scientists.Wheeljack's Characters:Name: Livewire (right leg)Faction: AutobotClass: ScientistAppearance: in both modes he resembles animated Blurr. But his color scheme is mainly black, with yellow electricity patterns and lightning bolts on his door and hood areas.Alternate mode: a sleek cybertronian car resembling blurrs.Weapons: he carries a sniper rifle and dual pistols. Most everyone finds the sniper rifle ironic.Skills: he is insanely fast. In both modes he can win just about any race. And, believe it or not, he is an almost perfect shot. And he is an excellent driver.Traits: He never shuts up. Ever. He always has something to say. And even when he doesn’t he still won’t shut up. Not to mention his fast, sometimes repetitive dialect can make him a bit hard to understand.Weakness: He never shuts up. Making a sniper rifle a bit… counterproductive at times.Bio: he raced in the streets if cybertron before he met his team. He still does at times. but not as often. He is generally a pretty friendly ‘bot, but most ‘bots can’t stand to be around him for more than a couple of minutes.Name: Drift (torso)Faction: AutobotClass: ScientistAppearance: a decently armored white robot, resembling a samurai. He looks very much like a sleeker version of his generations namesake.Alternate mode: a sleek white car with glowing red patterns on it.Weapons: two daggers and a long samurai sword. In addition, he has a bird like surveillance drone formed out of some back kibble. It has a decently powered gun and can be used as drifts eyes.Skills: he is an excellent sword fighter. That coupled with his thick armor makes for a deadly combination. He is also a bit of an inventor. He created his samurai armor. He was also trained in several fighting techniques.Traits: he is very quiet, and for that reason can come off as being very cold. He talks about as often as livewire doesn’t talk. He is also a bit of an inventor. It s rumored that he may have made a gun that shoots swords, He refuses to confirm or deny this. Other than that nothing but bits and pieces have been heard of what he may or may not have made other than his armor.Weakness: his thicker armor, while doing its job effectively, tends to make him a bit slower than the rest of his team. In a swordfight this can be fatal. He also refuses to use ranged weapons. Other than his "pet" of course.Bio: On cybertron he was trained as a samurai by yoketron. But not much more has been heard of him.Name: Tracks (left leg)Faction: AutobotClass: ScientistAppearance: blue robot with wings on his back. Very reminiscent of his G1 counterpart.Alternate mode: sleek sports car. Also reminiscent of his G1 namesake. it can also transform into a flying car mode. all of his weapons are available in that mode. but not in his car mode.Weapons: twin shoulder mounted rocket launchers and a handheld blaster.Skills: he can fly. And move pretty fast in vehicle mode.Traits: very self obsessed. It just gets to be awkward at times.Weakness: he is not focused a good portion of the time. And when he is it’s probably on himself.Bio: Back on Cybertron he would race for fun, and was decent at it. He joined his team for reasons no one. (Not even him) will ever understand. Regardless, he’s there. And may very well be the most incompetent ‘bot on the team.And their combined form...Name: AcceleratronFaction: AutobotClass: CombinerAppearance: A large but sleek robot with a head that resembles Optimus Prime's, but more smooth and with swept-back "Antennae."Alternate mode: N/AWeapons: The Requiem Blaster, an extremely powerful cannon that is formed by combining the weapons of Searchlight, Electrobolt, and Gearshift. He also possesses an extremely large blade (normally held by Searchlight, but it is too large to be used by him regularly).Skills: Extremely fast, even for a Combiner.Traits: When the Velocibots combine, an entirely new personality is constructed for Acceleratron. He becomes ferocious and serious in combat, with extensive knowledge of several martial arts. Weakness: His armor is lighter than most combiners.Bio: When the Autobots stole the blueprints for a Decepticon combiner known as Menasor, a racing team was brought to the labs and underwent modifications to combine into Acceleratron.IC post later...

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: Sorry about that. Also, among the stuff hitting the Destroyer was a shot from a rail gun based on that huge cannon Ultimate Optimus Prime comes with.IC: Alphonus, having pulled up to shoot the Destroyer, flew out of the way quickly. He put away his rail gun, now having weakened the Destroyer a bit, and continued his 5-gun barrage on Turmoil. The bullets were at and around him, a hailfire of death from above. Next, he elected to use his precious ammo. This battle had to be won, and quickly! Therefore, he pulled out his Rail Gun and blasted apart the rubble into small pebbles with a single shot, allowing passage across the mine again."FOCUS FIRE ON THE FUEL CELL!" Omnitrix led by example."You are foolish to believe we would retreat before you are all dead or captured, Turmoil. I am leaning on dead." Much of the rubble and explosion flew at the Destroyer.Victory Leo scrambled around the Destroyer's body, avoiding the rubble and flames, while clawing around. His rage was increasing. The Autobots might just end up with another problem if the Destroyer fell.

[~Shockwave~]

IC: "little busy" hydra responded as blitzwing flew in and landed, looking her square in the face. "Foolish autobot! prepare to perish by my might!" and aimed his cannons at her.

[Zulu Yankee Kilo Echo]

IC: An extremely fast dropship flew in low over mine 400STRA and deposited it's contents before a single shot could be fired at it. Six Autobots scattered, five diving to cover while the other one flew upwards at supersonic speed."Velocibots," Searchlight commanded, "take point."Electrobolt pulled out his path blaster, the two barrels rotating until one was on top of the other."Taking point," he confirmed, splattering the head of a surprised Decepticon with molten metal. He mentally kept tally as he felled another 'Con with a blast to the chest.On the other side of the mine entrance, Gearshift placed the barrel of his scatter blaster on the head of an unfortunate Vehicon and pulled the trigger. Bits of metal and energon spilled across the dirt, and Gearshift was gone before anyone could take notice."How many you got?" he commed Electrobolt."Two. No wait, make that three."Electrobolt swore under his breath."I take it you have some catching up to do," Electrobolt chuckled."Not for long," Gearshift assured him.

[~Shockwave~]

Ic: the other three followed suit and took cover. two of them fired at any con in site. a sniper bullet shattered a vehicons helmet. and a white birdlike drone rose up and laid fire on several vehicons.While Hydra ducked out of the way if blitzwings fire.

[Axilus Prime]

IC: Grindor dove for cover, pushing Lugnutz down into it as well. "That's it..." He shot two grenades behind the cover Drift and Livewire were using, then shot a missile behind Tracks' cover.Lugnutz jumped out from his cover. "COME OUT AND FIGHT, COWARDLY AUTOBOTS!" He charged in and POKE'd Livewire's cover, probably damaging the Autobot behind it as well. From his back, he fired two missiles at the cover Drift and Tracks were using, with the same probable effect. All of the rocks they were behind blew up.Betadron, being clearly in sight, had to dodge a few shots. He let out a bestial growl and fired at all six Velocibots with his Fusion Cannon. "Infecticons, surround the pests. Draw them in! Fire!" He fired off three more shots at Searchlight. Lockdown was already on it, having suddenly shot his explosive spikes at Electrobolt's feet. "5...4...3...2...1." Tentaculas had slipped in silently on his slime just as he did with the other Autobot and fired his Fusion Cannon point blank at Gearshift."Decepticons, avoid the air!" Soon, the upper area of the mine, where anyone flying was, namely Searchlight, was filled with the infectious particles in thick concentration. They gave off some heat, and as warm air rises, they wouldn't be going anywhere any time soon.Seizing the opportunity to further attack the leader of the Velocibots, Betadron transformed and charged up his Fusion Cannon.

[Zulu Yankee Kilo Echo]

IC: The Velocibots were a blur. In an instant, both Electribolt and Gearshift had transformed and sped off to other cover. It was unlikely that any of the Decepticons would be able to precisely locate exactly where they had gone.Searchlight didn't have to worry about the gas, mainly because he was tens of thousands of feet in the air, and if would take a lot of firepower to disperse a gas that high. He commed his teammates."Velocibots, please clear the immediate vicinity of the Decepticons. I repeat, clear the immediate vicinity of the 'Cons."As Gearshift and Electrobolt did as they had been told, Searchlight flew in low (but still not low enough for the gas to get him) and deposited a payload of explosives right on top of the Infecticons.OOC: TNG, how exactly does Groundwind's virus dispersal work? Does he just sort of spew a cloud of infectious material, or what?

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: They're deep inside a tunnel cave type mine, not a strip mine. Searchlight cannot be more than 100 feet in the air.Yes, he does just spew a cloud of stuff.IC: Betadron's cannon fire went up to Searchlight, as he had to stay still to deploy explosives. He transformed and sped off. "DECEPTICONS, CLEAR THE AREA!" As the max altitude in a tunnel was low, he had no time to use a rock or something to detonate them. But when they did detonate, Betadron had tossed an Energon crystal up to Searchlight, hoping to blow him away too. The immense shockwave hurled Betadron to a wall. "Where are the FOOLS running to?!" Grindor backed up from the explosion, lucky to have more distance than Betadron."STOP RUNNING! STAND AND FIGHT LIKE DECEPTICONS!" Lugnutz did not stumble from the shockwave, but was a bit surprised. "Well. This is going to be...fun." Tentaculas stretched out his tentacles to catch anyone who mistakenly came close. "I say we spew slime around so they can't keep zipping around us." He gave Scowl a blank-faced look with both optical ridges raised, one that would not be disrespectful, yet clearly wanted his approval. He allowed his tentacles to fling and spread slime around him, so that the odd one with the blades wouldn't be able to simply confuse the slag out of him.OOC: Can you tell me how fast they're going? The post made it sound like XLR8 from Ben 10 or something, but I really don't want to believe it's that bad. XDSo, I'm asking now.

Edited by TNG Prime, Sep 21 2012 - 05:30 PM.

[~Shockwave~]

OOC: you know blurr? That's who livewire was going to be.So please don't assume you can hit him three times before he's gone.Ic: Livewire had bolted as soon.as he saw the grenade heading for him.The other two converted and found new hiding places.While Hydra ducked she swiped at his legs, distracting him long enough to get away.

[Axilus Prime]

OOC: Didn't autohit even one guy, as I recall. I did, however, underestimate their speed, which is why I am asking exactly how fast these guys are moving.IC: "LEO! GO TO THE BACK! HIT IT!" Omnitrix continued to fire, shooting a Vehicon point blank in the face at one point. "Dear friends, we be gathered here today..." he said, Shifting his face into that of Crosscut to mock the pirate and have an excuse to say the following, "...TO RIP YER INNARDS OUT AND NAIL YER GUTS TO THE MAST, YE FILTHY CUR!" A Decepticon Scout fell over from the shots with that line, bumped into a Soldier, and sent them both falling down a tunnel."LEO!"The mechanical lion roared at Omnitrix, then continued to attack the Destroyer in just about every spot BUT the correct one.Omnitrix put his hands up and his optics widened. "Well. That was a bit rude." He shifted back to normal and fired at the fuel cell.
