Second-in-command

<p>Thunder: /* Decepticon seconds-in-command */</p>
<hr />
<div>The '''second-in-command''' refers to a [[Transformer]] whose status is... well, second to the commander's. A Transformer who is second-in-command is not necessarily ranked '''Sub-Commander''', while a Transformer ranked Sub-Commander is usually the second-in-command. The rank generally varies between factions. For the [[Autobot]]s and the [[Maximal]]s, the rank is usually overlooked, but it still receives [[Sub-Commander's Day|its own holiday]]. For the [[Decepticon]]s and [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]]s, choosing a Second-in-Command is a very tough decision. Pick one too loyal, and everyone will ignore him. Pick one too bold, and the leader may find himself [[scrap]].<br />
