	What the Decepticons actually NEEDED was a way back to Cybertron. Shockwave's Space Bridge tech was inadequate for accurate deployment without a focal point, so they needed to get one to Cybertron. Once Megatron was a prisoner of war, it logically followed that the Autobots would return to Cybertron for his trial. Once on Cybertron, Megatron could break free and open his Space Bridge, allowing the Decepticons to return in full force, conquering the Autobots and Cybertron all at once. Dat was da plan all along. --[[User:Xaaron\|Xaaron]] 14:03, 8 March 2013 (EST)		What the Decepticons actually NEEDED was a way back to Cybertron.

			:That's a fair point that he might have forseen them taking him to Cybertron for a trial. Obviously getting the 'Cons to Cybertron became the goal, but I couldn't think of a reason why he'd predict he'd get taken there (before Rodimus turned up with the news).

			==Decepticons' Plan==

			Megatron's plan was not simply to "overrun" the Autobots. He already proved the Autobots were powerless against him during the ''Revenge'' arc. Overpowering them wasn't an issue. Getting captured just to allow the Decepticons to bridge a mere ''several miles'' to attack the Autobots at Omega Supreme would have been a colossal waste of time. They could've just...walked. And when the Autobots announced their plans to travel to Cybertron, and spent hours (maybe ''days'') prepping Omega for launch, Megatron did nothing to summon his horde to stop them. He WANTED to go to Cybertron.

			What the Decepticons actually NEEDED was a way back to Cybertron. Shockwave's Space Bridge tech was inadequate for accurate deployment without a focal point, so they needed to get one to Cybertron. Once Megatron was a prisoner of war, it logically followed that the Autobots would return to Cybertron for his trial. Once on Cybertron, Megatron could break free and open his Space Bridge, allowing the Decepticons to return in full force, conquering the Autobots and Cybertron all at once. Dat was da plan all along. --[[User:Xaaron\|Xaaron]] 14:03, 8 March 2013 (EST)
