	This perception of Optimus Primal and Megatron as war veterans (along with "Dawn of Future's Past" [[retcon]]ning [[Tigatron\|two]] [[Airazor (BW)\|characters]] who were born on Earth in ''Beast Wars'' into having already existed on Cybertron beforehand) would eventually lead to the [[BotCon 2016]] comic story "[[Dawn of the Predacus]]" taking things to an ''absurd'' extreme by depicting nearly ''every'' character from ''Beast Wars'' as having served in the Great War—the Autobot/Decepticon Great War—when the cartoon was pretty unambiguous about the Maximals and Predacons being several degrees removed from the Autobots and Decepticons, the "''ancient'' ancestors" (see [[Dawn of the Predacus#Continuity errors\|that story's article for more]]).<ref>Though, to be a ''little'' fair, the idea of at least Megatron having been around since the Autobot/Decepticon war was first mentioned in [[2004]]'s ''[[Transformers: The Ultimate Guide]]'', but which is still pretty ridiculous.</ref>		This perception of Optimus Primal and Megatron as war veterans (along with "Dawn of Future's Past" [[retcon]]ning [[Tigatron (BW)\|two]] [[Airazor (BW)\|characters]] who were born on Earth in ''Beast Wars'' into having already existed on Cybertron beforehand) would eventually lead to the [[BotCon 2016]] comic story "[[Dawn of the Predacus]]" taking things to an ''absurd'' extreme by depicting nearly ''every'' character from ''Beast Wars'' as having served in the Great War—the Autobot/Decepticon Great War—when the cartoon was pretty unambiguous about the Maximals and Predacons being several degrees removed from the Autobots and Decepticons, the "''ancient'' ancestors" (see [[Dawn of the Predacus#Continuity errors\|that story's article for more]]).<ref>Though, to be a ''little'' fair, the idea of at least Megatron having been around since the Autobot/Decepticon war was first mentioned in [[2004]]'s ''[[Transformers: The Ultimate Guide]]'', but which is still pretty ridiculous.</ref>

	To cut a long story short, there really isn't ''supposed'' to have been a "Great War" fought between the Maximals and Predacons (and certainly not one that involved Optimus Primal and Megatron) in the past lore of the ''Beast Wars'' cartoon, and the fact that there ''is'' such a conflict described at all in any official ''Transformers'' media is very much at odds with the cartoon itself.
