	MECH leader [[Silas]] - integrated into the corpse of [[Breakdown (WFC)\|Breakdown]] - approached the Decepticons in an attempt to join their ranks, offering [[Project Damocles]], a space-based particle cannon, as a token of friendship. The Decepticons launched an operation to retrieve the satellite weapon's interface codes from human military servers while the ''Nemesis'' deployed Damocles into space. Though the weapon worked as intended, the Autobots and their human allies ultimately destroyed Damocles, and for his failure Silas was dragged away to Knock Out's dissection table on the ''Nemesis''. {{storylink\|The Human Factor}}		MECH leader [[Silas]] - integrated into the corpse of [[Breakdown (WFC)\|Breakdown]] - approached the Decepticons in an attempt to join their ranks, offering [[Project Damocles]], a space-based particle cannon, as a token of friendship.

	The ''Nemesis'' was deployed to a set of coordinates from the Iacon database that indicated the resting place of an ancient relic. There, Megatron discovered that the relic was the legendary [[Star Saber (~~Prima~~)\|Star Saber]], a weapon of immense power, and one that must not fall into the hands of Optimus Prime. After failing to retrieve the weapon or otherwise blast it out himself, he ordered the Decepticons to carve out the massive boulder in which the sword was embedded so the ''Nemesis'' could carry it away. As it was in the process of doing so, the Autobots suddenly attacked, with Optimus Prime charging in after the Star Saber. Despite Megatron's best efforts, Optimus managed to pull the sword from the boulder and then cleaved the rock in twain when Megatron had the ''Nemesis'' drop it on the Autobot leader out of spite. As Megatron watched on helplessly, Optimus followed this up by unleashing a wave of energy at the ''Nemesis'' which destroyed part of its engine array, causing it to narrowly miss crashing into a mountainside and forcing the ship to limp away. {{storylink\|Legacy (episode)\|Legacy}}		The ''Nemesis'' was deployed to a set of coordinates from the Iacon database that indicated the resting place of an ancient relic.

	The ''Nemesis'' was heavily damaged due to its traveling through the last remaining, yet faulty, space bridge, and thus Trypticon's sentient functionality and transformation abilities were lost, perhaps forever. Megatron didn't care too much. The ''Nemesis'' was still a functioning, fearsome battleship, and that's all he required. {{storylink\|Transformers: Exiles\|Exiles}}		The ''Nemesis'' was heavily damaged due to its traveling through the last remaining, yet faulty, space bridge, and thus Trypticon's sentient functionality and transformation abilities were lost, perhaps forever.

	The ''Nemesis'' detected an Autobot distress call, which turned out to be a trick devised by the [[Star Seeker]]s, who wanted to destroy the Decepticons. The ''Nemesis'' and the Star Seeker flagship, the ''[[Tidal Wave (Prime)\|Tidal Wave]],'' engaged in dogfight with the ''Nemesis'', on account of its greater mobility and the [[Requiem Blaster (~~Megatronus~~)\|Requiem Blaster]]'s poor heat dissipation, emerging victorious.

	Soon after, the ''Nemesis'' arrived in orbit around [[Aquatron]], engaging the ''Ark'' orbital firefight visible to the Autobots on the planet's surface before it used a [[tractor beam]] to try and cripple the Autobot ship. In response, the [[Aerialbot (WFC)\|Aerialbots]] launched and combined into [[Superion (Prime)\|Superion]] who cut a swath of destruction through the ''Nemesis'' as he made his way to the engine room. In such a confined space however, the [[combiner]]'s bulk proved more of a detriment than an advantage and Megatron was able to expel him from the warship. Though [[Sideswipe (WFC)\|Sideswipe]] attempted to then ram the ''Ark'' into the ''Nemesis'', a much more powerful tractor beam, fired by the [[Inquirata (Prime)\|Curator]] immobilized both ships.

	After his defeat at the hands of Optimus Prime, Trypticon's body was salvaged from the Energon pool and dismantled, kept in (still very large) pieces. With the planet's Energon reserves dwindling or mostly hogged by the Decepticons, the Autobots were forced to start draining Trypticon's inert, but still living form for Energon. Though Optimus and Ratchet had severe reservations about this, the former justified it based on the many Autobot lives Trypticon had taken.

	Sometime later, [[Shockwave (WFC)\|Shockwave]] informed Megatron of a [[Earth\|planet]] rich with resources that they could reach by space bridge, and all they needed was a vessel to take them there. While the scientist worked on the space bridge, the leader led an assault on the labs where Trypticon's body parts were being held. Though having only come to scavenge pieces of the Titan to build a new space cruiser, the Decepticons soon found that Trypticon was still alive and thus, his own starship mode could be utilized for their purposes. Soundwave was able to reassemble Trypticon, though the Titan remained in deep stasis, but before he could commence repairs Megatron overruled him, stating that, since he'd failed in his task of destroying the Autobots, he would be transformed into warship form, even as Soundwave warned that the damage meant Trypticon would be trapped in [[alternate mode]], the Titan giving only a growl as the procedure commenced. Once Soundwave's work was complete, the ''Nemesis'', as it was now referred to, pursued the ''Ark'' as it departed Cybertron, and engaged it in a fierce ship-to-ship battle in front of the wormhole of a space bridge. As Optimus and Megatron duelled, the space bridge began tearing both ships apart, and ultimately sucked both ships through to parts unknown. {{storylink\|Transformers: Fall of Cybertron\|Fall of Cybertron}}		Sometime later, [[Shockwave (WFC)\|Shockwave]] informed Megatron of a [[Earth\|planet]] rich with resources that they could reach by space bridge, and all they needed was a vessel to take them there.

	The ''Nemesis'' was deployed to a set of coordinates from the Iacon database that indicated the resting place of an ancient relic. There, Megatron discovered that the relic was the legendary [[Star Saber (~~Prima~~)\|Star Saber]], a weapon of immense power, and one that must not fall into the hands of Optimus Prime. After failing to retrieve the weapon or otherwise blast it out himself, he ordered the Decepticons to carve out the massive boulder in which the sword was embedded so the ''Nemesis'' could carry it away. As it was in the process of doing so, the Autobots suddenly attacked, with Optimus Prime charging in after the Star Saber. Despite Megatron's best efforts, Optimus managed to pull the sword from the boulder and then cleaved the rock in twain when Megatron had the ''Nemesis'' drop it on the Autobot leader out of spite. As Megatron watched on helplessly, Optimus followed this up by unleashing a wave of energy at the ''Nemesis'' which destroyed part of its engine array, causing it to narrowly miss crashing into a mountainside and forcing the ship to limp away. {{storylink\|Legacy (episode)\|Legacy}}		The ''Nemesis'' was deployed to a set of coordinates from the Iacon database that indicated the resting place of an ancient relic.

	The ''Nemesis'' was heavily damaged due to its traveling through the last remaining, yet faulty, space bridge, and thus Trypticon's sentient functionality and transformation abilities were lost, perhaps forever.

	The ''Nemesis'' detected an Autobot distress call, which turned out to be a trick devised by the [[Star Seeker]]s, who wanted to destroy the Decepticons. The ''Nemesis'' and the Star Seeker flagship, the ''[[Tidal Wave (Prime)\|Tidal Wave]],'' engaged in dogfight with the ''Nemesis'', on account of its greater mobility and the [[Requiem Blaster (~~Megatronus~~)\|Requiem Blaster]]'s poor heat dissipation, emerging victorious.

	Soon after, the ''Nemesis'' arrived in orbit around [[Aquatron]], engaging the ''Ark'' orbital firefight visible to the Autobots on the planet's surface before it used a [[tractor beam]] to try and cripple the Autobot ship. In response, the [[Aerialbot (WFC)\|Aerialbots]] launched and combined into [[Superion (Prime)\|Superion]] who cut a swath of destruction through the ''Nemesis'' as he made his way to the engine room. In such a confined space however, the [[combiner]]'s bulk proved more of a detriment than an advantage and Megatron was able to expel him from the warship. Though [[Sideswipe (WFC)\|Sideswipe]] attempted to then ram the ''Ark'' into the ''Nemesis'', a much more powerful tractor beam, fired by the [[Inquirata (Prime)\|Curator]] immobilized both ships.

	*Trypticon seems to suffer from mass-displacement. Considering the scale of his space station mode, he should be much bigger in robot form. In fact in ''Fall of Cybertron'', he appears to be smaller (likely half the size he was in the last game).
