Um. Where did the name "Operation: Firestorm" come from? I've never heard of it.--LesterX 15:20, 21 December 2009 (EST)

It's the designation the Pentagon gave for the anti-Decepticon operation. Once they see images from the UAV, General Morshower tells the Pentagon staff to commence Operation: Firestorm. As to why I called it that, there was no other name I could think of. Technically, the battle is all over the map, in Aqaba and Giza, so it wouldn't have been accurate to confine it to just one area. -- SFH 15:24, 21 December 2009 (EST)
I think "Battle of the Fallen" is a better name, like with Robot Heroes.--LesterX 16:56, 22 December 2009 (EST)

Casualties?

[edit]

Do we have any sort of confirmation who lived, and who died? There appears to be some disrepency on the wiki.

The decepticons that were there were Megatron, Starscream, Rampage, Ravage, Scrapper, Longhaul, Devaststor, Mixmaster, Scorponok, Bonecrusher and 4 protoforms. The autobots were Ironhide, Bumblebee, Arcee, Sideswipe, Ratchet, Jetfire and Jolt. Bumblebee killed Rampage, and ripped out Ravage's spine. Longhaul and Scrapper were both killed in the bombing raid. Arcee was blown up by both Bonecrusher and protoforms. Devaststor was destroyed by a rail gun. Jetfire decapitated Mixmaster and crushed Scorponok's head. The protoforms were destroyed by the military. Jetfire committed suicide to donate parts to Optimus.

"Battle of Giza"

[edit]

Hasbro's online Vector Sigma database refers to this as the "Battle of Giza". Might this be merged to that as with Mission City? Alientraveller 14:49, 3 May 2011 (EDT)

No it should not, Giza is a place, not a battle.
Whereas Mission City is clearly a pie, or some sort of abstract concept. -- Semysane 21:49, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
So what? "Operation: Firestorm" is still a proper name for a unique concept. What point is there in merging this? —Interrobang 22:10, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
