During [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]], the '''Supreme Commander''' (総司令官 ''Sōshireikan'') was the absolute leader of the [[Autobot]]s and, at first, sole bearer of the [[Matrix of Leadership]]. Later, Autobots were appointed the rank of Supreme Commander without having the Matrix passed down to them.

The Supreme Commander rank can be considered the Autobot version of the [[Decepticon]] rank of [[Emperor of Destruction]].

By the [[Beast Era]], the rank of Supreme Commander was appointed to high-ranking [[Maximal]] generals, usually of [[Convoy (rank)|Convoy]] status. The task of ruling over the Maximal race as a whole was the job of either the [[Maximal Elder]]s or the [[Convoy Council]] (depending on continuity).
