	Taking place directly after the [[Age of Rust]], the '''Great War''' was a violent outburst of fighting on the planet [[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]], between the newly christened [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s. After cycles of social stratification caused by the [[Functionism\|caste system]], the bloated bureaucracy established during the [[Age of Wrath]], and the trauma of the [[Cosmic Rust (disease)\|Rust Plague]], two prominent individuals emerged in Cybertronian politics: a gladiator named [[Megatron (WFC)\|Megatron]] from [[Kaon (polity)\|Kaon]] and an archivist from the [[Iacon (polity)\|Iacon]] [[Hall of Records]] named [[Optimus Prime (WFC)\|Orion Pax]].

Although the two warring factions would temporarily come together to face a common threat, such as the [[Quintesson\|Quintessons]] and [[Unicron/Aligned\|Unicron]], these truces were often short-lived.

Their efforts buy enough time for Optimus to return and take on Unicron, but after being defeated, takes the drastic measure of taking the AllSpark into the Matrix of Leadership.

The two Predacons heavily damage Ultra Magnus, so Ratchet returns to Cybertron to treat him. Predaking takes command over Darksteel and Skylynx, and Bumblebee becomes a leader.

Possessing Megatron's corpse, he travels to Cybertron, where he battles Predaking and discovers a burial ground of Predacons. The Chaos Bringer raises an army of Predacon Terrorcons to destroy Primus, prompting a desperate last stand from the Autobots, Decepticons, and Predacons. Optimus returns just in time to defeat Unicron once more by trapping Unicron's anti-spark in the vessel that once contained the AllSpark. With the AllSpark now in the Matrix of Leadership, Optimus announces that he must sacrifice his life to restore the [[Well of All Sparks]] to its life-giving potential. As he descends towards the Core, he assures his fellow Autobots that while the Age of Primes has passed, his passing is not an end, but a new beginning... simply, another transformation. {{storylink\|Predacons Rising (Prime)\|Predacons Rising}}.

			Post-Great War Cybertron would see the return of many Cybertronians, who would be ruled by a new [[Autobot High Council\|High Council]]. Unfortunately, a group of Decepticons led by [[Cyclonus (WFC)\|Cyclonus]] would take over the Council and use [[Light Bender]]s to conceal their true identities as Decepticons. {{storylink\|Freedom Fighters}} This new council begins publically blaming Optimus and Autobots for causing the Great War, which leads to several Autobots being blacklisted and/or left with low-level positions. {{storylink\|Enemy of My Enemy (RID)\|Enemy of My Enemy}}

With the help of a renewed Optimus Prime, their combined efforts bring down Darkmount for good, forcing the Decepticons into a retreat. {{storylink\|Rebellion (Prime)\|Rebellion}}

			The Autobots discover that the Decepticons are transporting ancient Predacon fossils, which they fail to obtain. {{storylink\|Project Predacon}} {{storylink\|Chain of Command (Prime)\|Chain of Command}} Meanwhile, the Decepticons suffer further losses from an army of vampiric Terrorcons, as well as Airachnid and her Insecticons. The Terrorcons are destroyed, while Airachnaid and the Insections are bridged to a desolate moon of Cybertron. Starscream ends up facing Megatron's wrath for losing them the Insecticons and more than half of the Vehicons while Shockwave speeds up progress on Project Predacon to make up for the extensive loss of manpower. {{storylink\|Thirst}}

			[[File:Evolution Predaking Stand.jpg\|upright=1.4\|thumb\|Predacons... Terrorize?]]
			On the verge of the project's completion, the Predacon, known as [[Predaking (Prime)\|Predaking]], reveals his newfound ability to transform as well as his sentience, and though he pledges loyalty to Megatron, his ambition does not go unnoticed, and the Decepticons decide to let the Autobots wipe out the Predacons for them. Ultra Magnus and Wheeljack end up facing off against Predaking, putting aside their past grievances with each other and forging mutual respect, but are ultimately bested by the Predacon, who also destroys the Forge of Solus Prime and Magnus's hand. Optimus is able to save his men in the nick of time, while Shockwave finds the destruction of his lab and the presence of Synthetic Energon has produced [[Living metal\|cyber-matter]]. {{storylink\|Evolution}} Megatron decides to use this newfound discovery to rebuild the Omega Lock to cyberform Earth and restore Cybertron, believing the two planets to be two halves of one. While Starscream procures Earth technology for the project, the recently captured Soundwave brings Ratchet to Megatron to perfect the synthetic Energon formula. {{storylink\|Minus One}} Raf and Wheeljack build a probe using Laserbeak's transponder that was broken off while capturing Ratchet, which will lead them to the ''Nemesis''. Megatron is able to persuade Ratchet to help produce the formula, having played to Ratchet's love for his home planet to override his justified reservations. {{storylink\|Persuasion}} While the probe is destroyed by Starscream, it does not take long for Ratchet, Knock Out, and Shockwave to produce the formula, but Ratchet tries to make a run for it, only to be stopped by Megatron and tossed to Predaking for execution. Having caught Knock Out's slip of the tongue, Ratchet reveals Megatron's plot to exterminate the Predacons to Predaking, who goes on a rampage. Ratchet disables the ''Nemesis''<nowiki>'</nowiki> cloaking field, allowing the Autobots to storm the ship, just as Megatron is able to scrape a victory against Predaking by knocking him out of an airlock. {{storylink\|Synthesis}}

When the Wreckers are bridged away by Soundwave, Jack and an Apex Armor-clad Miko banish him to the Shadowzone. As the Omega Lock is activated, Bumblebee tries to get the Saber to Optimus, but is blasted to death by Megatron and falls into the pool of Cybermatter created by the Omega Lock. Though enraged by his scout's death, Optimus is beaten and is soon hanging off the edge of the Lock by Megatron... who is then run through with the Star Saber by the revived Bumblebee, whose voice has been restored as well. Megatron dies and his corpse falls to Earth, while Starscream, Shockwave, and the surviving Vehicons abandon ship. After a failed attempt at abandoning the ship as well, Knock Out receives little welcome from the Autobots when he tries to switch sides as well. Now in command of the ''Nemesis'', Optimus has its journey to Cybertron, where the Omega Lock is fired into the core, reviving the planet at last. The Autobots bid farewell to their human family, with Ratchet staying on Earth to support Unit:E, and departing to rebuild their home. Meanwhile, Predaking, having clung to the warship's hull, flies off into the distance of this new world with intentions unknown... {{storylink\|Deadlock (episode)\|Deadlock}}

	~~When the Omega Lock is completed, the Autobots attack the~~ '~~'Nemesis'', killing Megatron~~ and ~~reviving~~ Cybertron, effectively ~~ending the Great War~~ with an Autobot victory. {{storylink\|Deadlock (episode)\|Deadlock}} After reclaiming the AllSpark, Optimus returns to Cybertron to find Unicron attacking the planet, and seals the Chaos Bringer away. Optimus sacrifices himself to restore the AllSpark to the Core of the planet, while a revived Megatron dissolves the Decepticon movement. {{storylink\|Predacons Rising (Prime)\|Predacons Rising}}		With Megatron's death and a revived Cybertron, the war is effectively ended with an Autobot victory. {{storylink\|Deadlock (episode)\|Deadlock}}

Predaking takes command over Darksteel and Skylynx, while Knock Out defects to the Autobots after tiring of Starscream's abuse. At the burial ground, the Chaos Bringer raises a new army of the undead to destroy Primus, prompting a desperate last stand from the united Autobots, Decepticons, and Predacons. Their efforts buy enough time for Optimus to return and take on Unicron, but after being defeated, takes the drastic measure of taking the AllSpark into the Matrix of Leadership. Unicron is tricked into having his ethereal form sealed into the AllSpark's container, finally ridding Megatron of his torturous possession. Now knowing what oppression truly is, Megatron officially disbands the Decepticons and departs, leaving Starscream as the last active Decepticon. His reign is short-lived, as the Predacons trap him to enact revenge for all the trouble he's caused them. The Autobots gather at the Well of All Sparks, where Optimus announces that merging the AllSpark with the Matrix means he must sacrifice his life to restore Cybertron's ability to create new life, assuring his saddened comrades that this is not an end, but only a ~~new beginning - another transformation~~. ~~{{storylink\|Predacons Rising (Prime)\|Predacons Rising}}~~		Optimus and Wheeljack travel into space to find the [[AllSpark]], while Starscream and Shockwave bring to life two new Predacons, [[Darksteel (Prime)\|Darksteel]] and [[Skylynx (Prime)\|Skylynx]]. The two Predacons heavily damage Ultra Magnus, so Ratchet returns to Cybertron to treat him. Predaking takes command over Darksteel and Skylynx, and Bumblebee becomes a leader.

	Before Optimus can properly pass into the afterlife, his Spark is separated from the AllSpark by the [[Thirteen]] and brought to the [[Realm of the Primes]]. {{storylink\|Decepticon Island (Part 1)}} ~~Further adventures~~ would take ~~place~~ with the [[Bee Team (RID)\|Bee Team]], a group of Autobots ~~led by Bumblebee who~~ would face off against the escaped prisoners of the ship ''[[Alchemor (RID)\|Alchemor]]'', ~~led by~~ [[Steeljaw (RID)\|Steeljaw]]~~, as well as a Decepticon-controlled~~ [[~~Autobot High Council\|High Council]] led by [[Cyclonus (WFC)~~\|~~Cyclonus~~]]~~.

Possessing Megatron's corpse, he travels to Cybertron, where he battles Predaking and discovers a burial ground of Predacons. The Chaos Bringer raises an army of Predacon Terrorcons to destroy Primus, prompting a desperate last stand from the Autobots, Decepticons, and Predacons. Optimus returns just in time to defeat Unicron once more by trapping Unicron's anti-spark in the vessel that once contained the AllSpark. With the AllSpark now in the Matrix of Leadership, Optimus announces that he must sacrifice his life to restore the [[Well of All Sparks]] to its life-giving potential. As he descends towards the Core, he assures his fellow Autobots that while the Age of Primes has passed, his passing is not an end, but a new beginning... simply, another transformation. {{storylink\|Predacons Rising (Prime)\|Predacons Rising}}.
